CryptAPI Adds Support for TON
29/09/2026 09:07:20TON is now live on CryptAPI. The Open Network is a Layer 1 blockchain designed for mass adoption and closely integrated with Telegram, one of the most widely used messaging apps in the world. For developers, that means a new way to get paid by people who already hold crypto right inside their chat app, with funds going straight to your own wallet.
Supported Tokens
With the addition of TON, you can now accept payments in:
- GRAM (formerly Toncoin)
- USDT (Tether)
Got another TON token in mind? Feel free to suggest it, and we'll explore adding it to our service!
A Quick Note on GRAM
In June 2026, TON's native token was renamed from Toncoin (TON) to Gram (GRAM) following a community vote. The network is still called The Open Network, and nothing changed on-chain: same balances, same addresses, no migration required.
Why TON?
TON uses a sharded architecture that splits the network's workload across parallel chains, keeping transactions fast and fees low even under heavy load. Combined with native USDT and a wallet within easy reach of Telegram's massive audience, it's a practical rail for everyday crypto payments. For merchants, this means quick confirmations, minimal fees, and a stablecoin option customers already know and use.
How to Get Started
Integrating TON into your payment flows is seamless:
- Use the ticker (e.g.,
ton/gram,ton/usdt) in the create endpoint. - Fetch the available tickers from our cryptocurrencies page.
That's it! Once set up, you're ready to start accepting payments on TON.
Your Feedback Matters
At CryptAPI, we're committed to expanding our supported blockchains and tokens to serve you better. If you have any suggestions or feedback about this update, or if there's a token you'd like to see supported, don't hesitate to let us know.
We're excited to see how you use TON payments to grow your business. Stay tuned for more updates!
