### Using Contract Address

```typescript theme={null}
// Custom token by contract address
const DAI_POLYGON = "0x8f3Cf7ad23Cd3CaDbD9735AFf958023239c6A063";

const tx = await align.blockchain.wallets.sendToken(
  wallet,
  DAI_POLYGON,
  recipient,
  "100.00",
  "polygon"
);
```

<Info>
  Token transfers require native tokens for gas fees. Ensure the wallet has both
  the tokens to send AND native tokens for gas.
