How Do I Send Crypto to Someone?

Sending Crypto with Bankr

Bankr makes it easy to send tokens to anyone — just describe what you want to send, how much, and where it should go. No need to copy-paste long wallet addresses if you don't want to.

How to Send a Transfer

Just tell Bankr what to send in plain English. Here are some examples:

send 0.05 ETH to 0x1234...abcd
send $50 of USDC to vitalik.eth
send 100 BNKR to @bankrbot on base
transfer $25 of ETH from base to my wallet on polygon

Supported Recipients

You can send to:

Wallet addresses — paste any valid EVM or Solana address
ENS names — like vitalik.eth or deployer.eth. Bankr resolves them automatically
Twitter/X handles — Bankr looks up the wallet linked to their Bankr account

Cross-Chain Transfers

Need to move funds between chains? Bankr handles bridging for you:

swap $50 USDC from polygon to ETH on base
bridge 0.1 ETH from ethereum to base

Cross-chain transfers use bridge aggregators and may take a few minutes to settle depending on the chains involved.

Which Chains Support Transfers?

Transfers work across all nine supported chains: Base, Ethereum, Polygon, Unichain, World Chain, Arbitrum, BNB Chain, Solana, and Hyperliquid. Gas is sponsored on Base, Polygon, Unichain, World Chain, and BNB Chain — on other chains, you'll need a small balance for gas fees.

Tips

If you don't specify a chain, Bankr picks the one where you have the highest balance
Bankr always asks for confirmation before sending — you'll see the recipient, amount, and chain before anything goes through
Every transfer goes through Bankr's security layer, which checks for malicious addresses and phishing attempts

Common Issues

"Insufficient balance" — make sure you have enough of the token on the chain you're sending from
"Could not resolve name" — double-check the ENS name or Twitter handle
Transfer stuck — cross-chain bridges can take a few minutes. Ask Bankr to check the status
