# Private Send Integration
> Privately send a token to another address and receive the same asset out, using the v2 quotes and exchanges API
## Overview
A Private Send is a [Private Swap](/developer-hub/swap-flows/private-swap) where the **input and output token are the same**. Instead of swapping into a different asset, the user moves a token to a new destination address and receives the **same asset** back out (for example, USDT in → USDT out).
Everything else — endpoints, `types=private` multi-hop routing, the optional XMR privacy layer, status progression, and completion times — is identical to a Private Swap. **The only difference is that `from` and `to` reference the same token.**
**Best For**: Moving funds privately to a new address without changing assets — breaking the on-chain link between source and destination while keeping the same token.
## The Only Difference
Follow the [Private Swap integration guide](/developer-hub/swap-flows/private-swap) exactly, but set `from` and `to` to the **same** token id when requesting a quote:
```javascript JavaScript theme={null}
const usdtTokenId = '6689b73ec90e45f3b3e51566'; // the token to send
const params = new URLSearchParams({
amount: '100',
from: usdtTokenId, // same token in...
to: usdtTokenId, // ...and out
types: 'private',
});
// ...request GET /quotes, then create the order exactly as in Private Swap
```
```bash cURL theme={null}
curl -X GET "https://api-partner.houdiniswap.com/v2/quotes?amount=100&from=6689b73ec90e45f3b3e51566&to=6689b73ec90e45f3b3e51566&types=private" \
-H "Authorization: your_api_key:your_api_secret"
```
`amountOut` will be slightly lower than `amountIn` — network and exchange fees apply per hop even when the token is the same. Use the quoted `amountOut` when setting recipient expectations.
