Send TON
Send native TON and estimate transaction fees.
This guide explains how to send native TON, estimate transaction fees, and use dynamic fee rates.
On TON, values are expressed in nanotons (1 TON = 10^9 nanotons). Transactions support an optional bounceable parameter specific to the TON network.
Send Native TON
You can transfer TON to a recipient address using account.sendTransaction():
const result = await account.sendTransaction({
to: 'EQ...', // TON address
value: 1000000000, // 1 TON in nanotons
bounceable: true // Optional: specify if the address is bounceable
})
console.log('Transaction hash:', result.hash)
console.log('Transaction fee:', result.fee, 'nanotons')Estimate Transaction Fees
You can get a fee estimate before sending using account.quoteSendTransaction():
const quote = await account.quoteSendTransaction({
to: 'EQ...',
value: 1000000000,
bounceable: true
})
console.log('Estimated fee:', quote.fee, 'nanotons')Use Dynamic Fee Rates
You can retrieve current fee rates from the wallet manager using wallet.getFeeRates():
const feeRates = await wallet.getFeeRates()
console.log('Normal fee rate:', feeRates.normal, 'nanotons')
console.log('Fast fee rate:', feeRates.fast, 'nanotons')Next Steps
