# Mission 2 — Send Your First Transaction

> Transfer a tiny amount of $A in Blocksfinity and follow the full transaction lifecycle: Prepare → Review → Sign → Broadcast → Confirm → Find transaction

Canonical: https://help.blockzhub.io/articles/mission-2-send-your-first-transaction

Before starting make sure you funded your Vaulta account with a small amount of $A and you are already logged in to Blocksfinity with the Vaulta account you want to use. In this example, we use the account supportacc1h@active.

Note: To fund your account, purchase $A on [any exchange that supports (deposits and) withdrawals to the Vaulta network](https://www.blocksfinity.com/wallet/buy), and then transfer $A from the exchange to your Vaulta account name (maximum 12 characters).

## Step 1 — Open the Transfer page

In [Blocksfinity.com](https://www.blocksfinity.com), login with the account you want to use and go to:

Wallet → Transfer

This opens the token transfer form.

## Step 2 — Prepare the transaction

Fill in the transfer form:

- Send to: the recipient account name
In this example: supportacc1f

- Amount: the amount you want to send
In this example: 0.0001

- Token: select A

- Memo (optional): leave blank unless the recipient specifically requires one

Then click Transfer.

### About the memo

The memo is an optional text field attached to a token transfer. On Vaulta (former EOS) token transfers, the memo is limited to 256 bytes. That is a byte limit, not strictly a character limit, so plain ASCII text can usually use up to 256 characters, while some special characters or emojis can reduce the usable length.

In many normal wallet-to-wallet transfers, the memo can be left empty.

However, exchanges often require a memo. That is because they may use one shared blockchain account for many customers and identify each customer internally by a unique number in the memo.

For example, an exchange may instruct a user to:

- send funds to the account bybitdeposit

- and include a unique memo such as 500234161

In that case, the account name identifies the exchange deposit wallet, and the memo identifies the user inside the exchange.

Important: If an exchange gives you a memo, enter it exactly as provided. A missing or incorrect memo may cause the funds to arrive on-chain but not be credited automatically to your exchange account.

## Step 3 — Review the transaction details

After clicking Transfer, Blocksfinity shows a confirmation dialog.

Review the details carefully:

- Token contract: core.vaulta

- Send to: supportacc1f

- Amount: 0.0001 A

If the details are correct, click Submit.

## Step 4 — Sign the transaction

After you submit the transfer, Blocksfinity opens a signing request in Blocksfinity Authenticator.

Login to Blocksfinity Authenticator

Then review the transaction again in the signing window. In this example, it shows:

- Account: supportacc1h@active

- Action: core.vaulta::transfer

- From: supportacc1h

- To: supportacc1f

- Quantity: 0.0001 A

If everything is correct, click Sign.

## Step 5 — Broadcast the transaction

After you sign, Blocksfinity Authenticator submits the signed transaction to the blockchain network.

This is the broadcast step — the signed transaction is pushed on-chain for processing.

If the broadcast is successful, Blocksfinity Explorer displays a success notification.

Successfully pushed transaction

It also shows the transaction ID.

## Step 7 — Find the transaction in your account history

To verify the transfer, go back to your account page [https://www.blocksfinity.com/account](https://www.blocksfinity.com/account) and scroll down to the Transactions section.

You should now see the transaction listed in your history, including:

- the transaction type

- the sender and recipient

- the amount sent

- the transaction ID (usually shown in shortened form in the list: [726f6439...](https://www.blocksfinity.com/explore/tx/726f6439dd01cc5a452cbd33e4e64e73d09a8a9d9dd6ebb847b311673f593f45))

In this example, the transaction history shows a Send token action from supportacc1h to supportacc1f for 0.0001 A.

## Step 8 — Create account alerts

You can create and configure your account alerts here: [https://www.blocksfinity.com/alerts](https://www.blocksfinity.com/alerts)

Blocksfinity currently supports free account alerts for eMail, Telegram, Slack, WhatsApp and Blocksfinity in-app inbox.

Create another transaction and observe the alert.
