# Deposits & Withdrawals

BeeZee connects to other blockchains, so you can move assets in and out without asking anyone's permission. You'll find the bridge form right inside the wallet panel:

* **Deposit** brings assets *into* BeeZee from another connected chain.
* **Withdraw** sends assets *out* to a destination chain and recipient of your choice.

Either way, before you confirm you'll see the **estimated amount** you'll receive and an **estimated time** for the transfer to complete.

## Routes beyond the built-in connections

The wallet panel handles the chains that connect to BeeZee directly. For routes beyond those, the app hands off to an external bridging tool that can find a path — you carry on there, then come back to BeeZee when you're done.

## Tracking a transfer

Cross-chain transfers aren't instant — they can take a few minutes to settle. A **pending-transactions** tracker keeps you posted on the status, with a **View on Explorer** link so you can follow along on the public [block explorer](https://explorer.getbze.com/) while everything finalises.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Availability varies.** Deposits and withdrawals can be turned on or off depending on the app and the network you're using, so you may not see the bridge form everywhere.
