Since last Monday, users of Polygon’s original AMM and most popular decentralized exchange, QuickSwap, can now execute limit orders natively here. Gelato has partnered with QuickSwap before to deploy limit orders. However, until now they were only available via Sorbet Finance, performing thousands of transactions since its inception. Now users no longer have to leave QuickSwap to get the same reliable limit order experience.

Native limit orders are quickly becoming one of the most requested features in DeFi. Yet to date, even AMMs such as Uniswap still offer no native Limit Order capability in the pure sense on their own UI. Many users on AMMs are still only presented with the option to go and buy at the current market rate. Gelato set out to obliterate this barrier for Decentralized Exchange developers with two npm libraries: limit-orders-lib and limit-orders-react. The smart contract components of the limit order system have been audited by Certik.

Using Gelato’s limit-orders-react library enabled us to add limit-order functionality to our AMM and frontend in no time and with batteries included.” — Sameep Singhania, founding member of QuickSwap

Thanks to Quickswap’s native frontend integration of the Gelato automation network all Quickswap users can now enjoy automatically trading at their specified pivotal price points in the markets, without having to be online just at the right time clicking buttons to seize the opportunity. QuickSwap users can sit back and relax while Gelato bots are monitoring and executing their limit orders exactly as instructed by them.

With our limit-orders-react npm library, developers can go live with limit orders for their AMM in under one hour.” — Luis (gitpusha), legendary member Gelato Network
