# Snowbridge

## Transfer your tokens via Snowbridge

**Step 1**: On the SubWallet homepage, click the "**Send**" button at the upper right corner of the screen.

The Transfer screen will popup on the right side.

{% hint style="warning" %}
If you are in Single-account mode, make sure the account you initially chose is not watch-only.
{% endhint %}

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

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
First, you will need to select the token you want to transfer and the destination network to which you want to transfer your tokens.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Next, select the recipient address and the amount you want to transfer.

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

{% hint style="info" %}
With this type of transfer, you can select the same account for both the sender and recipient.
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="info" %}
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.

{% hint style="warning" %}
However, we strongly recommend not using 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.

Note that transferring tokens cross-chain to a centralized exchange (CEX) address will result in loss of funds. This is because these CEXs may not recognize or properly credit deposits made to their wallet addresses.
