# Transfer

> Send tokens privately between Unlink addresses.

Transfer tokens privately to one or more Unlink addresses. The sender is the account bound to your user client. See [Quickstart](/quickstart). Sender, recipient, and amount are all hidden by a zero-knowledge proof; see [How Unlink works](/how-unlink-works).

The `transfer()` method signs with the spending key from the account bound to
`createUnlinkClient`. All public account constructors support private
transfers.

## Single recipient

```ts theme={null}
const tx = await client.transfer({
  recipientAddress: "unlink1...",
  token: "0xTokenAddress",
  amount: "500000000000000000",
});

const confirmed = await tx.wait();
console.log(confirmed.confirmationStatus); // "confirmed" | "processed" | "failed"
```

`confirmed` means the transaction has been observed; it does not always mean
new private funds are spendable. If your next action spends funds from a recent
deposit or transfer, check `confirmed.fundsUsable` or wait with
`tx.wait({ until: "processed" })`.

## Multiple recipients

```ts theme={null}
const tx = await client.transfer({
  token: "0xTokenAddress",
  transfers: [
    { recipientAddress: "unlink1aaa...", amount: "100000000000000000" },
    { recipientAddress: "unlink1bbb...", amount: "200000000000000000" },
  ],
});

await tx.wait(); // resolves at user-facing confirmation by default
```

## Parameters

**Single recipient:**

* `recipientAddress`: recipient Unlink address.
* `token`: ERC-20 token address.
* `amount`: amount in the token's smallest unit.

**Multiple recipients:**

* `token`: ERC-20 token address.
* `transfers`: list of recipients and amounts.

**Returns:** a `TransactionHandle`. See [Transaction status](/reading-data#transaction-status).
