#Transfer ARK Using a Ledger Wallet

Watch this helpful tutorial video on How to Transfer ARK Using a Ledger Wallet in ARKVault

The process of using a Ledger device to sign an ARK transaction or message is similar to a traditional credential-based wallet. However, the key differences include that:

• The transaction will originate from a wallet imported using a Ledger device, and
• The Ledger device itself will serve as the means to review and sign (or approve) a transaction or message

While viewing a Ledger-imported ARK wallet, create a supported transaction as required. In this case, you can create a standard transaction by clicking the Send button located in the upper right corner of ARKVault.

#Enter Transaction Details

The Send page will appear. Here you will enter in details and/or select options in order to successfully transfer funds to one or more recipients.

Recipient:

• The destination address to which you wish to transfer funds
• Ensure that you enter or select the correct recipient address as sending to an incorrect address typically means a loss of funds
• You may send to either a single recipient or select up to 64 different recipients

Amount - The total amount of ARK you wish to transfer.

Memo:

• This is also known as the VendorField
• It is an optional field that permits up to 255 characters
• You may enter a public message here if you so wish

Fee:

• This is the cost of transferring funds and is rewarded to the Delegate who forges your transaction
• You may select a Slow, Average or Fast fee. Alternatively, you may switch to Advanced and enter a custom amount if desired

Once you have entered all the necessary details, click the Continue button to proceed. Alternatively, if you still need time to review some details before proceeding, click the Back button.

#Review the Details

The Transaction Review screen will then appear. Check all the details and ensure that everything is correct. If all is in order, click the Continue button to proceed. Alternatively, if you need to make adjustments, click the Back button.

#Connect Ledger Device

You will then need to connect your Ledger device to your computer, preferably using the USB cable that was provided along with your device. Depending on your browser, a window may appear stating that (website) wants to connect to a HID device. Upon connecting your device, you will need to unlock it using the unique pin you created when setting it up.

Your device should then appear in the window that refers to the HID device.

Select your device and click Connect. An automatic redirect should then occur and the next page should appear. If this is not the case, click the Continue button to proceed with the importation process. Alternatively, if you wish to cancel the process for whatever reason, click the Back button.

#Confirm the Transaction

The Confirm Your Transaction Screen will appear. Check the details displayed on your Ledger and compare it with what appears in ARKVault. You will then need to use your Ledger’s buttons to scroll to either the Approve or Reject screen. When ready, press both buttons simultaneously on your Ledger to confirm the transaction.

#Complete the Ledger Transaction

The Transaction Sent screen will then appear confirming that your Ledger transaction completed successfully. You may then review the details of the transaction before continuing or ending your session accordingly.
