Yes, there are two options you can choose from to bridge between these two networks. The two bridging protocols you can use are Synapse Protocol and Allbridge. Allbridge charges pretty significant fees (around $40 - $50 AUD) and takes around 30 minutes to bridge funds. Synapse on the other hand only costs $10 AUD and takes under a minute to complete bridging.
In addition to the speed and costs of bridging, Allbridge only allows you to bridge the following tokens - ABR, APYS, ARDN & HAPI. Synapse allows users to bridge the following tokens - USDC, USDT, DAI, gOHM, SYN, nUSD, BUSD, DOG, USDB & NFD.
The best way to bridge cryptocurrencies from Polygon (MATIC) to BNB Chain (BSC) is via Synapse. In the below example we use USDC as the bridging token but you can also send 10 other cryptocurrencies. Follow the below guide to get started.
Step One: Visit Synapse and connect your Metamask wallet
Step Two: Select Polygon and BNB Chain as your two networks
Step Three: Input the amount of USDC you want to bridge
Step Four: Confirm the transactions on Metamask and your funds will arrive in your wallet within minutes
When bridging your funds between any two networks, you will first need to add the respective chains RPC details into your Metamask extension. To add networks simply click ‘Networks’ on Metamask and select ‘Add Networks’ then fill in the following details.
Bridging between the Binance Smart Chain and Polygon Mainnet will cost around $10 AUD on Synapse Protocol. There are two fees that users incur, a bridging fee and a network transaction fee. The network transaction fee is located in the bridging information under ‘Approve USDC’ before you bridge your funds. The bridging fee can be found when you approve the funds on Metamask.
