# Wrap Tokens

To interact with the Soroban smart contract, Stellar assets have to be wrapped so that they are compatible with the Soroban token interface. Each wrap will deploy a new token contract on Soroban, with the original issuer of the asset set as administrator. Wrapping a token requires the asset code and asset issuer ID, and anyone can wrap them on Soroban.

#### **Wrap NFT token:**

```
soroban lab token wrap --asset
"MYNFT:GB3VRP7SLBLKZUIHEHENIGT34TUO2X7AKULJ2FE6DCTQHMMXB6U2IPVN" --rpc-url
https://rpc-futurenet.stellar.org:443 --network-passphrase 'Test SDF Future
Network ; October 2022
```

Please ensure you change the `--asset` param accordingly.

#### **Wrap Payment token:**

```
soroban lab token wrap --asset
"PAYMENTTOKEN:GA36RZMMQHBA2LURRSUQR7V4ID5Q7GVZRMAWY2RSXCLA4QPGT6UUWFLU"
--rpc-url https://rpc-futurenet.stellar.org:443 --network-passphrase 'Test
SDF Future Network ; October 2022'
```

Again, be sure to adjust the `--asset` param as required.

When you run a wrap command, it will return a `contract_id` (e.g. `38f2fb24a53d4ee70dabf456b0f13789b0fd825921ea31754d4f561c54362b87`). To use this contract\_id as an Address in the smart contract, you'll need to convert the contract ID to hex using Address Conversion.

### **Address Conversion:**

Address Conversion allows you to convert a contract ID into an address, which can then be used in the smart contract. For example, when we wrap the NFT token in Soroban, we receive a contract ID. We need to convert this ID into an address so that we can store it in the rental smart contract.

You can use the following Javascript snippet:

```javascript
const {Address} = require("soroban-client")
let id="38f2fb24a53d4ee70dabf456b0f13789b0fd825921ea31754d4f561c54362b87"
const address = Address.contract(Buffer.from(id, 'hex'))
console.log(address.toString())
```
