Single-chain transfer

Single-chain token transfer keeps it simple—move your tokens between accounts in the same network.

"Single-chain transfer" refers to the process of transferring tokens within the same network.

Step 1: Open the SubWallet extension and click the "Send tokens" button on the homepage.

You will be directed to the Transfer screen.

If you are in Single-account mode, make sure the account you initially chose is not watch-only.

Step 2: Enter the required information in the corresponding fields.

In the "To" field, you can select one account from the account list or paste the valid address.

From version v1.3.3 onwards, we have introduced a new feature: Advanced address detection.

This feature, when enabled, will allow you to enter any Substrate-based address for transactions. This means you are no longer restricted to using only the fixed addresses from your account list; for example, you can input an Acala address as the recipient address when transferring VARA tokens rather than just using the VARA address.

However, we strongly recommend not to use this feature if you aren't an expert in transactions on the Polkadot ecosystem, as transferring to the wrong address will result in loss of funds.

If you are in the "All accounts" mode, in addition to the above information, you will also need to choose the sender's address.

Once done, click "Transfer".

Step 3: Check your transaction details, then click "Approve" to proceed.

Step 4: Transaction result is in!

You can either click "Back to home" to return to the homepage or "View transaction" to see transaction details in the History tab.

If you click "View transaction", SubWallet will show you the latest transaction record in your transaction history along with the extrinsic hash of the transfer.
