# Bridge From Another Wallet

Bridging on PingMe is powered by **external bridge partners** integrated directly into the app. These are established cross-chain infrastructure providers that handle the technical heavy lifting of moving assets between blockchains securely.

{% hint style="warning" %} <mark style="color:$primary;">**Please read before proceeding.**</mark>

<mark style="color:$primary;">Bridging services displayed within PingMe are provided by</mark> <mark style="color:$primary;"></mark><mark style="color:$primary;">**independent third-party bridge partners**</mark><mark style="color:$primary;">, not by PingMe directly.</mark>

<mark style="color:$primary;">This means:</mark>

* <mark style="color:$primary;">Each bridge partner operates under their</mark> <mark style="color:$primary;"></mark><mark style="color:$primary;">**own terms of service, security architecture, and supported token/chain pairs.**</mark>
* <mark style="color:$primary;">Bridge fees, processing times, and exchange rates are</mark> <mark style="color:$primary;"></mark><mark style="color:$primary;">**set and controlled by the provider.**</mark>
* <mark style="color:$primary;">PingMe does not hold, control, or take custody of assets during the bridging process - this happens entirely within the</mark> <mark style="color:$primary;"></mark><mark style="color:$primary;">**partner's bridge infrastructure.**</mark>
* <mark style="color:$primary;">PingMe is not liable for delays, failed transactions, or asset loss that occur during the bridging process.</mark>
* <mark style="color:$primary;">PingMe integrates bridge partners to keep your experience smooth — but the cross-chain transaction happens between</mark> <mark style="color:$primary;"></mark><mark style="color:$primary;">**you, the bridge protocol, and the destination chain.**</mark>

<mark style="color:$primary;">**Always verify the details before confirming a bridge transaction.**</mark>

3. On the **Available Wallets** page, you will be presented with available crypto wallet options based on what you have installed on your device, and a bridging URL for non-supported wallet options.

4. If you have any of the supported wallets installed (e.g. Metamask), you will be able to tap on the option, which will redirect & launch the 3rd party wallet app directly with the bridging URL pre-loaded.

4. Connect your wallet on the 3rd party wallet app, and select the origin network to bridge your assets - **bridging function is powered by** [**Avail**](https://availproject.org/) **and currently only supports USDC bridging from any supported network to Monad network.**
5. If you do not see your wallet option displayed on PingMe app, you may copy and paste the bridging URL under **For Other Wallets** section on PingMe app, directly to your preferred crypto wallet app browser and bridge USDC from any supported network to Monad network.

{% hint style="info" %}
**The bridging URL is automatically generated with your PingMe account wallet address as destination address. Please make sure to bridge only USDC and select Monad network as the destination network.**&#x20;
{% endhint %}

5. Upon completion of bridging transaction, the funds will usually arrive in your PingMe account within 10-15 seconds, and your balance will be updated automatically upon successful deposit.
