## Transfer ACA

Exchanges that support the Acala network and the ACA token would support direct withdraw/deposit ACA to/from Acala network. Please confirm with your exchange how to send ACA tokens to the Acala network.&#x20;

You can always send a small amount to verify before sending the full amount.&#x20;

If you have ACA in Polkadot network or other parachains, you can send it to Acala using <mark style="color:purple;">`Bridge`</mark>
