# Tokenizing book-entry shares

Book-entry shares of funds or equities can be converted into tokenized shares and delivered to your allowlisted wallet. Each asset has a different set of available networks. Check the [instrument's page](https://superstate.com/assets) for the networks where it is supported.

Before tokenizing, add an eligible address for that asset to your allowlist (see [Adding an allowlist address](/investors/investor-portal/managing-addresses.md#adding-an-allowlist-address) above). After an address has been added, there is a 6-hour delay until it can be used to tokenize book-entry shares.

{% hint style="info" %}
If your entity has multiple subaccounts, choose a destination wallet associated with the subaccount holding the book-entry shares you intend to tokenize. The combined entity balance may include shares allocated to other subaccounts. See [Subaccounts](/investors/investor-portal/subaccounts.md).
{% endhint %}

1. Go to Portfolio and click Tokenize next to your book-entry balance
2. Select an amount and a previously added allowlist address
3. Click Tokenize

Book-entry shares are converted to tokens and delivered to selected address, usually within a few minutes. Track the status in Transaction History.
