Polygon Unit Converter
Instantly convert Polygon amounts between POL and its smallest unit, the Wei. On Polygon, 1 POL = 10^18 Wei, so a single rounding mistake can be costly — this tool keeps every denomination exact.
* Polygon (PoS) uses the same 18-decimal precision as Ethereum. 1 POL = 1018 Wei. The native token was recently rebranded from MATIC to POL.
Understanding Polygon units
The native asset of Polygon is POL, divisible into 18 decimal places. The smallest indivisible unit is the Wei. Smart contracts, RPC responses, and on-chain transactions almost always use Wei, while wallets and exchanges display POL — converting between them correctly is essential for developers and traders alike.
Polygon denomination table
| Unit | Value in Wei |
|---|---|
| POL (ex-MATIC) | 1,000,000,000,000,000,000 |
| Finney | 1,000,000,000,000,000 |
| Szabo | 1,000,000,000,000 |
| Gwei (Shannon) | 1,000,000,000 |
| Wei | 1 |
Why convert Polygon units?
Whether you are debugging a transaction, setting gas values, reading uint256 contract data, or simply checking a balance, working in the right Polygon denomination prevents expensive mistakes. This converter handles POL, Wei, and all intermediate units with full precision.
