# Transfer

> High-level transfer endpoint that handles nonce, gas, and fee estimation
automatically. Supports native and token transfers on EVM and Solana.

**EVM:** Provide `to`, `value`, and `chainId`. The endpoint auto-fills `nonce`
(via `getTransactionCount`), `gasLimit` (via `estimateGas` with 20% buffer),
and fee data (`maxFeePerGas`/`gasPrice` via `getFeeData`) if omitted. Transaction
`type` is auto-detected from chain (EIP-1559 if supported, legacy otherwise).
For ERC-20 transfers, provide `tokenAddress` — the endpoint encodes the
`transfer(address,uint256)` calldata automatically.

**Solana:** Provide `to` and `value` (in lamports for SOL, smallest unit for SPL).
For SPL token transfers, also provide `tokenAddress` (the mint address).
Blockhash is fetched automatically.

Address screening is enabled by default when Para has screening configured.
Set `addressScreening: false` to skip recipient screening for a request.

Use `kind` to explicitly declare the transfer type (`NATIVE`, `ERC20`, or `SPL`),
or omit it to infer from the presence of `tokenAddress` (backwards compatible).
