# Withdraw funds

> Send USDC or an offered stablecoin to an external wallet.

Use **Withdraw** for money going to an external address. Use [Transfer](/features/transfers) between your Cove wallets or to a Cove user. To send another token, use [Token transfers](/funds/token-transfers).

## Make a withdrawal

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open Withdraw">
    Choose the intended profile and send `/withdraw`. Check the source wallet and available balance.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the network and asset">
    Select the destination chain. Solana and BNB Chain may also offer **Send: USDT**. Make sure the recipient accepts the exact asset and network.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter the destination">
    Paste the external wallet address. Review any address warning and check the full address yourself.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Enter an amount">
    Choose a USD amount or percentage. The minimum withdrawal is **\$1.50**. Leave room for any fee when entering an amount below Max.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review and submit">
    Check the source, destination, chain, asset, fee, and recipient amount. If a fee confirmation appears, review it before **Withdraw anyway** or the final action shown.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Track completion">
    **Withdrawal Submitted!** means processing has started. Wait for the completion or failure message and check the explorer link where provided.
  </Step>

## Fees and Max

Standard Solana withdrawals have no flat Cove withdrawal fee; a new recipient token account may have an account-creation cost. Other supported withdrawal chains have a documented **\$0.25** flat fee. Check the current prompt for the final amount.

* Below **100%**, the fee is added on top of the entered amount.
* At **100% / Max**, it is taken from the amount, reducing what arrives.
* **Withdrawal Too Large to Sponsor** asks you to split the withdrawal into smaller amounts.

See [Fees and minimums](/essentials/fees-structure).

## Supported destinations

Open **Withdraw** to see the destination networks currently offered. The [Supported chains](/essentials/supported-chains) page lists trading networks, including **Arc**; trading support does not automatically mean a chain is available as a withdrawal destination.
