It can be spelled either way.
Like Yoghurt and Yogurt. There's just two spellings. |

Swop

Swap Noun –verb (used with object) • To exchange, barter, or trade, as one thing for another: He swapped his wrist watch for the radio. –verb (used without object) • To make an exchange. –noun • An exchange: He got the radio in a swap. Also, swop. So, both I guess? |

I used to spell it as swop until a teacher shouted at me for it! So now I always spell it as swap.

Was originally swap as it's etymology lies in the word "swappen", but swop is also a perfectly acceptable alternative.
