# Send Tokens Cross-Chain

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Please ensure you are sending tokens to the correct network**.

You can read more about Polkadot ecosystem tokens [here](https://docs.novawallet.io/nova-wallet-wiki/asset-management/how-to-send-tokens).
{% endhint %}

{% hint style="warning" %}
It is advised to a**void sending tokens via cross-chain transfer to Centralized Exchanges (CEX)** as they may not credit your account properly – resulting in you needing to contact their support. 

We would advise that instead you first send a cross-chain transfer within your Nova Wallet account, and then send a regular transfer to the CEX.
