Tonkeeper Pro, the enhanced version of the #1 self-custody
Tonkeeper wallet for the TON blockchain, now supports USDT TRC20
tokens without the need to acquire TRX. The fees are covered using
Tonkeeper Battery, which can be charged with TON or USDT, and
include in-app purchases on iOS and Android.
The new feature is available as part of the Tonkeeper Battery.
This built-in service enables users to preload their wallets with
credits from which subsequent transfer fees will be deducted.
Tonkeeper Battery supports a range of tokens that can be preloaded,
as well as enabling top-ups with a bank card via in-app
purchases.
"The mission of Tonkeeper is to make crypto payments easy for
everyone and everything," said CEO Oleg Andreev. "With USDT-TRC20
support in Tonkeeper Pro, users can USDT payments without having to
hold TRX on balance: fees are covered by Tonkeeper Battery. Support
for USDT-TRC20 makes it easier for people to gradually transition
to USDT on TON, where transaction fees are significantly lower and
USDT."
With the addition of USDT TRC20 support, Tonkeeper Pro
strengthens its role as a payments-first wallet, allowing users to
securely send and receive USDT TRC20 payments within the TON and
TRON ecosystems. Tonkeeper Battery ensures users can transact
without needing to hold TRX for network fees.
One of the biggest challenges in Web3 is ensuring enough TRX is
available to cover transaction costs. On TRON, USDT transfers
require energy and bandwidth, meaning users must either use their
available bandwidth or purchase additional resources with TRX.
Tonkeeper Battery, a built-in feature designed to simplify
transactions, eliminates this complexity. It automatically
estimates the required energy and bandwidth, covers the necessary
costs, and processes the transaction—all without requiring TRX.
Since its launch, Tonkeeper Battery has powered over 9 million
transactions, making it an essential tool for users navigating
onchain payments.
To access the new TRC20 feature, Tonkeeper Pro users should
launch the desktop wallet and open Settings. Once TRC20 is enabled,
they can charge Tonkeeper Battery with supported tokens or a bank
card and start sending USDT TRC20 without needing TRX for fees.
