# Bridges

Matchain has two bridges. Use the one that matches your asset.

### BNB bridge: BNB Smart Chain and Matchain

Use [bridge.matchain.io/native](https://bridge.matchain.io/native) to move BNB between BNB Smart Chain and Matchain. BNB is the native currency of both networks.

* Choose a direction: BNB Smart Chain to Matchain, or Matchain to BNB Smart Chain.
* Deposits arrive on Matchain after your BNB Smart Chain transaction confirms.
* Withdrawals take three steps: start the withdrawal on Matchain, prove it on BNB Smart Chain once it is covered by a posted output root, then finalize it on BNB Smart Chain after the 7-day challenge period.
* Anyone can prove or finalize a withdrawal using its Matchain transaction hash.
* The page includes an Activity history.

Step by step: [Deposit to Matchain](/deposit-to-matchain.md) and [Withdraw from Matchain](/withdraw-from-matchain.md). The contract addresses used by this bridge are listed on the [Contracts page](/development/contracts.md).

BNB bridging moved from Superbridge to bridge.matchain.io/native; withdrawals started there can be proven and finalized on the new page by their Matchain transaction hash.

### Token bridge: MAT, USDT, USDC and EURC

Use [bridge.matchain.io](https://bridge.matchain.io/) to move tokens between Matchain and other supported networks. Supported tokens and networks are shown in the bridge.

Token transfers use Hyperlane warp routes. Each route is verified by the validators configured for that route.

### Good to know

Bridge contracts can be upgraded, and some can be paused, by their administrators.
