# Internal transfer

> Move USD between wallets you own at Anchorage Digital without per-transaction quorum.

An internal USD transfer moves funds between USD wallets you own at Anchorage Digital, without quorum approval on each request. No trusted destination or AML information is required. To send USD to a bank, see [Domestic wire transfer](/knowledge-base/platform/developers/move-money/transfer/usd/wire/domestic) or [International wire transfer](/knowledge-base/platform/developers/move-money/transfer/usd/wire/international).

`POST /v2/transfers` requires the `Transfer funds` permission and an Ed25519 request signature.

<Info>
  Staging uses the `USD_R` asset type and `https://api.anchorage-staging.com/v2`. Production uses `USD` and `https://api.anchorage.com/v2`. The examples below show the staging value.

## Send an internal transfer

Set both `source.type` and `destination.type` to `WALLET`.

  "source": {
    "id": "{source wallet ID}",
    "type": "WALLET"
  },
  "destination": {
    "id": "{destination wallet ID}",
    "type": "WALLET"
  },
  "assetType": "USD_R",
  "amount": "{quantity}",
  "transferMemo": "{memo}",
  "idempotentId": "{unique ID}"
}
```

### Fields

| `destination.type` | `WALLET`. |
| `amount` | USD amount as a string. |
| `transferMemo` | Optional free-text description attached to the transfer. |

```json theme={null}
{
  "data": {
    "transferId": "008d3ec72558ce907571886df63ef51594b5bd8cf106a0b7fa8f12a30dfc867f",
