On June 5, 2025, Singapore’s crypto payment framework AEON announced its integration with the TRON Network to achieve seamless in-store payments. The relevant information is as follows:
Integrated content: Through AEON Pay, users can now conduct transactions using TRX (the native utility token of the Tron Network), and also make offline payments using USDT and USDD on the Tron Network, bringing fast and low-cost digital payments into the daily retail experience.
Cooperation significance: This integration is an important milestone in AEON’s mission, aiming to make cryptocurrency spending frictionless and widely accessible, while significantly expanding the practicality of Wave-based digital assets in the global retail environment. Tron, as one of the most active public Layer 1 blockchains, has earned a reputation for fast and secure payments due to its high throughput and low transaction fees.
Coverage: Approximately 10,000 brands and 20 million merchants in Southeast Asia can now conduct transactions using over 77 billion US dollars of stablecoins in circulation on the Tron network, and it is currently expanding to Africa and Latin America.
Payment method: Users only need to open the AEON Pay application, scan the QR code of the merchant, and they can directly make the payment with their TRON digital assets.
Both sides’ comments: Eddie Lee, the CEO of AEON, stated that TRON has a global community that views blockchain as a fast, economical, reliable and stable transaction method. The large number of users and stablecoin activities on its network are highly suitable for AEON to serve the growing payment needs of global users. Sam Elfarah, the community spokesperson of Tron DAO, said that the integration of AEON Pay has greatly enhanced Tron’s mission to become a global settlement layer. Both sides have achieved the goal of promoting Web3 applications by building a bridge between cryptocurrencies and traditional finance.
This collaboration highlights AEON’s leadership in real-world crypto payment innovation. As AEON continues to shape the globally connected Web3 economy, its support for Tron reaffirms its commitment to promoting the large-scale adoption of cryptocurrencies and integrating them into the daily payment experience.
