InstaSwap allows Users through the Site or otherwise to utilize various functions and services operating on the THORChain Network, Mayachain Network, and Chainflip – those cross-chain protocols for executing swaps and other transactions across multiple blockchains (such functions and services, together with all other services and functionalities available on the InstaSwap Site or services or software provided by InstaSwap, the “InstaSwap Services” or the “Services”). The Services include, for example, the following:
Interface with THORChain: InstaSwap.com is InstaSwap's DEX interface to THORChain's cross-chain liquidity allowing anyone to trade native assets in a decentralized manner, provide liquidity, and perform other actions.
Cross-Chain DEX Aggregation: InstaSwap expands beyond THORChain Network and provides integrated access to decentralized liquidity sources across multiple blockchains such as Chainflip, Mayachain, and more.
Spot Trading: InstaSwap provides access to decentralized spot trading, enabling users to buy and sell digital assets at current market prices through aggregated on-chain liquidity pools.
Perpetual Trading: InstaSwap integrates decentralized perpetual futures protocols, allowing users to open leveraged long and short positions on digital assets. All margin and collateral is held by the underlying protocol smart contracts, not by InstaSwap. Perpetual trading carries substantial risk and is intended for experienced participants.
API Integration: InstaSwap offers a composable open-source API built on top of InstaSwap's DEX Aggregator.
Affiliate Program: InstaSwap operates a revenue sharing program through which partners earn a share of swap fees generated by referred users. Details of the program are available at instaswap.com/affiliate.

Similarly, InstaSwap cannot guarantee the functionality of any InstaSwap Services that are impacted by third parties that InstaSwap may work with or which InstaSwap or the Services may depend upon.
