Let’s say, you want to transfer 11 BUSD from BNB Chain to Flow Cadence. The steps are made simple in cBridge:
Select "BNB Chain" in the dropbox next to "From" and "Flow Cadence" in the dropbox next to "To".
You will be prompted to switch your wallet to BNB Chain if it's not yet connected. Enter the amount you want to send under "Send". You should see the estimated amount you will receive under "Receive (estimated)".
Note that there will be a difference between the amount you send and the amount you receive, which is determined by the bridge rate and fees. For the exact definition of each item in the transaction, check the tooltips next to each of the terms.
Note that If you transfer BUSD to Flow Cadence for the first time, you will be prompted to “Create BUSD vault in your Follow wallet” first.
Then click “Approve” on Flow Wallet.
Then you need to “Approve BUSD”, and will be prompted to confirm on Metamask.
Click “Next” and "Approve" in each prompt and you can transfer your assets. Then, review your transfer details and click "Transfer". You will receive a popup to confirm the transfer.
Note if you have approved BUSD before, you will skip step 5 and see the below Transfer page.
Make a final review and click Confirm Transfer button. Then you will be prompted with a confirmation on MetaMask.
Click "Confirm", and your transaction will be submitted. Please wait for a few minutes as the bridging is in progress.
You can check transaction status by clicking History button.
Here are examples of transaction statuses. When it shows Completed, it means the transaction is done and the token should be received on Flow Cadence.
