# Deposit
Private transfers are made from a **private account** (that linked to the main account) that holds an **encrypted balance**.
To be able to make a private transfer, you first need to fund this private account.
You can receive private funds in two ways:
* **Self-funding:** You transfer tokens from your own Safe’s public balance into your private balance.
* **Incoming transfer:** Another user sends you a private transfer to your Safe address.
In this section, we’ll walk through how to fund your private balance **from your own Safe**, using the Private Safe app.
#### Steps to Deposit into Your Private Account
* **Open the Private Safe app** and select the token you want to deposit into your private balance.
* **Click the “Deposit” button** next to the selected token.
* In the pop-up window, **enter the amount** you want to deposit.
> The amount will be withdrawn from your public Safe balance and encrypted into your private balance.
* **Follow the instructions** and sign the transaction using the standard Safe multisig flow.
* After the transaction is confirmed and processed, you will see the **updated private balance** for the selected token in the interface.
