# Get balances

> Read collateral and ERC-20 balances for a wallet.

These live on the client, not on `client.user`. They are live chain reads, not the indexer share or LP books.

```ts theme={null}
await client.getCollateralBalance(owner)
await client.getErc20Balance(token, owner)
```

Do not mix these with [share positions](/user/get-share-positions) or [LP positions](/user/get-lp-positions). High-level methods already encode approvals; use `erc20Abi` only if you read `balanceOf` / `allowance` yourself.
