Chainlink CCIP - Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol
Build with CCIP
CCIP makes it simple to move data, messages, and tokens across blockchains. Connect smart contracts on different networks as if they were one system, whether transferring stablecoins, powering cross-chain apps, or running multi-chain DeFi.
Deploy/enable a token across multiple chains
Create a new Cross-Chain-Token or enable an established one that can be launched on 50+ chains, providing unparalleled interoperability and reach.
Bridge a token
Securely transfer tokens - including ETH, USDC, LINK - and messages between different blockchain networks.
Send a token with data
Build token transfers that do more than move value, letting you embed business logic directly into your cross-chain workflows.
Tutorials
Acquire Test Tokens
Get test tokens in minutes; build and test cross-chain apps with zero friction.
Transfer Tokens
Unlock seamless token transfers from contracts; learn, code, and deploy.
Transfer Tokens with Data
Go beyond basic transfers with logic-infused token movements in your EVM contracts.
Using the Token Manager
Effortlessly manage CCTs by tracking, importing and organizing tokens from your dashboard.
Using the JS SDK
Integrate CCIP in your frontend or backend effortlessly with JavaScript SDK.
Check Message Status
Retrieve real-time status of your offchain transaction from EVM.
Transfer Tokens Between EOAs
Send tokens offchain from an Externally Owned Account with clear steps.
Using the CLI
