# Burning tFIAT Tokens

Burning tFIAT tokens is a way of transferring value outside of the blockchain into the FIAT system. The process consists in you sending some tFIAT tokens to the admin of your Ramp so he/she can burn it and send the amount burnt (minus the burning fee) to you using the payment method you agreed on.

Here is a step-by-step guide.

* Click on the **Product tags** tab in the page's Header and select the currency you wish to transfer to only list ramps that process your currency

* Find the Ramp you want to use for the operation in the list of available ramps and go to its control panel by clicking on its **Control Panel** button available in its details panel

* Read the guidelines of your ramp on how to burn your tokens. The ramp in the image above for instance is asking us to contact an admin on [PayChat](https://paychat.payswap.org) in the room @payswap::matrix.org. So the next step is to contact them with the details about our burn operation

### I AM AN ADMIN

* Make sure your users have sent you the tokens to burn
* Select the correct token market in your ramp's panel
* Go to the control panel menu of your ramp and click on the **Burn** button. Enter the amount of tFIAT to burn and validate the form
