# Transfer Token
We mainly describe how to transfer 4 token types: TRX, TRC10, TRC20, TRC721

## Transfer TRX
Tron supports transferring TRX by sending a `TransferContract`-type transaction. You can do it as follows:
```ts
const receiverAddress = '';
const amount = 1e6; // unit in sun.
const tx = await tronWeb.transactionBuilder.sendTrx(receiverAddress, amount);
const signedTx = await tronWeb.trx.sign(tx);
const result = await tronWeb.trx.sendRawTransaction(signedTx);
```
To transfer TRX easily, TronWeb offers the `tronWeb.trx.sendTrx` method, which handles the transaction creation and broadcasting for you.

## Transfer TRC10 token
Tron supports transferring TRC10 token by sending a `TransferAssetContract`-type transaction. You can do it as follows:
```ts
const receiverAddress = '';
const amount = 100;
const tokenId = '1000086';
const tx = await tronWeb.transactionBuilder.sendToken(receiverAddress, amount, tokenId);
const signedTx = await tronWeb.trx.sign(tx);
const result = await tronWeb.trx.sendRawTransaction(signedTx);
```
To transfer TRC10 token easily, TronWeb offers the `tronWeb.trx.sendToken` method, which handles the transaction creation and broadcasting for you.

## transfer TRC20 token
Transfer TRC20 token is as using `triggerSmartContract` method, see the example:
```js
const functionSelector = 'transfer(address,uint256)';
const parameter = [{type:'address',value:'ACCOUNT_ADDRESS'},{type:'uint256',value:100}]
const tx = await tronWeb.transactionBuilder.triggerSmartContract('USDT_ADDRESS', functionSelector, {}, parameter);
const signedTx = await tronWeb.trx.sign(tx.transaction);
const result = await tronWeb.trx.sendRawTransaction(signedTx);
// the result looks like below:
// output-start

    ]
  }
}
// output-end
```

## transfer TRC721 token(nft)
Call the transferFrom() function of the TRC721 contract for NFT transfers, see the example:
```js
const { TronWeb, providers } = require('tronweb')

const HttpProvider = providers.HttpProvider;
const fullNode = new HttpProvider("https://nile.trongrid.io");
const solidityNode = new HttpProvider("https://nile.trongrid.io");
const eventServer = new HttpProvider("https://nile.trongrid.io");
const privateKey = "your private key";
const tronWeb = new TronWeb(fullNode,solidityNode,eventServer,privateKey);

async function trc721_transferFrom() {
    const trc721ContractAddress = "TRio4FwnDvtYN2ogss6Qm7Hn2EaTLwWMNs";//contract address

    try {
        let abi = [...];
        let contract = await tronWeb.contract(abi, trc721ContractAddress);
        //Use send to execute a non-pure or modify smart contract method on a given smart contract that modifies or changes values on the blockchain.
        // These methods consume resources(bandwidth and energy) to perform as the changes need to be broadcasted out to the network.
        await contract.transferFrom(
            "TA1g2WQiXbU5GnYBTJ5Cp22dvSjT3ug9uK", //address _from
            "TM8vRhebJD7zeoBLWAnr9SrYrhWNrHjBgC", //address _to
            666 //uint256 tokenId
        ).send({
            feeLimit: 100000000
        }).then(output => {console.log('- transferFrom hash:', output, '\n');});
    } catch(error) {
        console.error("trigger smart contract error",error)
    }
}
trc721_transferFrom()
```
