# Bridge aggregator

## Definition

A bridge aggregator is a service that compares or routes cross-chain transfers across multiple bridge or liquidity mechanisms to seek a preferred path, fee or execution time.

## What it means in practice

A routed transfer can involve several contracts and external systems, so the aggregator adds convenience but not a uniform security model.

## How this concept appears in Terenval Wallet

If a compatible bridge aggregator connects through WalletConnect, Terenval presents the signing request while the aggregator and selected bridge determine the cross-chain route.

**Important:** Review source chain, destination chain, token, minimum received and bridge provider before signing.
