Do ensure that the sender's account has sufficient balance for the amount to send & its required transaction fee.
Do ensure the amount sent complies with the minimum ADA value requirement, see: https://docs.cardano.org/native-tokens/minimum-ada-value-requirement. As of date of writing, the minimum is 1 ADA.
