# Self-Relaying Transactions

{% hint style="info" %}
You do not have to always use a community Relayer. You can self-relay transactions with any wallet as long as the relaying wallet has sufficient gas to pay the network fee. Self-relaying may be useful in some cases such as on the rare occasions when Relayers are unavailable.
{% endhint %}

### Prerequisites

* You have either [created](/terminal-wallet/first-time-setup/creating-a-new-wallet.md) or [imported](/terminal-wallet/first-time-setup/import-an-existing-wallet.md) at least 2 wallets
* Shielded assets held in a 0zk address: [Shielding Assets](/terminal-wallet/transactions/shielding-assets.md)
* Relaying wallet has sufficient network base token to pay for the transaction
