AEON Integrates TRON Network for Seamless In-Store Crypto Payments

AEON, a next-generation crypto framework designed for payments, has successfully integrated the TRON network to facilitate seamless in-store payments. This integration allows users to transact using TRX, the native utility token of the TRON network, as well as USDT and USDD on TRON for offline payments. This move is aimed at bringing fast and low-cost digital payments into everyday retail experiences, marking a significant milestone in AEON’s mission to make crypto spending frictionless and widely accessible.

TRON, known for its high throughput and low transaction fees, is one of the most actively used public layer-1 blockchains. The integration enables the use of TRX, USDD, and USDT for purchases at thousands of physical retail locations, including global franchises and local stores. Approximately 10,000 brands and 20 million merchants across Southeast Asia can now accept a circulating supply of over $77 billion in stablecoins on TRON. Expansion into Africa and Latin America is currently in development.

Eddie Li, CEO of AEON, highlighted the global community of TRON users who have embraced blockchain technology for its speed, affordability, reliability, and stability. The large user base and stablecoin activity on TRON’s network align well with AEON’s growing suite of payment services, making it an ideal partner for driving crypto adoption.

To make purchases, users simply open the AEON Pay app, scan the merchant’s QR code, and pay directly with their TRON-based digital assets. This integration taps into TRON’s expansive global user base, accelerating crypto adoption in everyday settings such as streets, cafes, and retail counters.

Sam Elfarra, Community Spokesperson for the TRON DAO, noted that AEON Pay’s integration greatly enhances TRON’s mission to become a global settlement layer. Both AEON and TRON are working towards driving Web3 adoption by building bridges between crypto and traditional finance.

This strategic collaboration with TRON underscores AEON’s leadership in real-world crypto payment innovation. As AEON continues to shape a globally connected Web3 economy, its support for TRON reaffirms its commitment to driving mass adoption of crypto and integrating it into everyday payment experiences.
