# (5) Move DAI from Polygon

Following the same premise as the other methods, you can move your DAI tokens from one chain to another, effectively converting them into xDai. 

This cross-chain bridge lets users convert **DAI on Polygon (Matic) to xDai** (among others). Simple and inexpensive, it's called **Xpollinate.**

Powered by [Connext](https://connext.network/) and [1Hive](https://1hive.org/#/home), **Xpollinate** is a beta software.\
Use at your own risk.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Important Note:** You may need a very small amount of **Matic coin** to pay the transaction fee when converting DAI from Matic to the xDai native token on the xDai chain.

\
\&#xNAN;**(5)** Press the **SWAP** button**.**\

**(7)** Proceed to set the chosen **amount of tokens** to transfer.\
\&#xNAN;**(8)** **Check** the info, to verify you're satisfied with the outcome, and **press Swap.**\
**(9) Confirm** the transaction.\
\&#xNAN;**(10)** The transaction will be processed and **completed** in a few moments!

Usually it only takes a few seconds, but it might take longer. After the pop-up shows "**SUCCESS**", indicating the transaction's completion, we recommend you to check the balance in your wallet.

**Done! Transaction succeeded. Easy and cheap, as promised.**
