In a major leap toward mainstream cryptocurrency adoption, AEON, the next-generation payment protocol, has launched its AEON Pay DApp on TokenPocket, empowering over 30 million users to seamlessly pay with crypto at more than 20 million merchants globally. Announced on May 30, 2025, via posts on X by
@AEON_Community, this integration marks a pivotal step in bridging digital assets with real-world spending. Here’s everything you need to know about AEON Pay’s TokenPocket launch and its potential to reshape the crypto payment landscape.
AEON Pay: Simplifying Crypto Transactions
AEON Pay, part of AEON’s modular payment protocol, is designed to make cryptocurrency payments as intuitive as using fiat currency. Supporting major blockchains like Ethereum, BNB Chain, Solana, TON, and more, AEON Pay enables users to scan QR codes and pay instantly at offline stores using assets like USDT, USDC, ETH, BNB, and TON. The DApp’s integration with TokenPocket, a leading non-custodial wallet with 30 million users, brings this functionality to a massive audience, allowing seamless in-store and online purchases at global brands like McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, and UNIQLO, as well as local shops.
Since its alpha launch in August 2024, AEON has processed over $2.5 million in monthly transaction volume and engaged 30,000+ active users, per PRNewswire. The TokenPocket integration, alongside existing support in Bitget Wallet (60 million users) and KuCoin Pay, expands AEON’s reach, particularly in Southeast Asia, where its Telegram Mini-App (
@AEONPay_pay_bot) already supports 1.5 million merchants.
TokenPocket Integration: What It Means
TokenPocket, a multi-chain wallet supporting over 70 blockchains and 20,000+ DApps, is a powerhouse in Web3 accessibility. The AEON Pay DApp, now live within TokenPocket’s ecosystem, allows users to pay directly from their wallets using a simple scan-to-pay system. This eliminates the complexities of crypto transactions, such as manual conversions or high fees, by leveraging AEON’s Swap Pay for cross-chain transfers and instant fiat settlement for merchants. As
@web3_wunderkid noted on X, “Web3 isn’t the future. It’s already here,” with AEON Pay enabling crypto spending at over 20 million merchants, from street vendors to fashion retailers.
The integration also supports AEON’s broader suite of payment solutions, including:
- Web3 Mobile Payment: QR-based payments for in-store purchases.
- Online Web3 Payment: Frictionless e-commerce checkouts.
- Swap Pay: Seamless cross-chain token conversions.
- Emerging Features: Subscription payments, tipping for creators, and pre-authorized transactions.
Driving Mainstream Adoption
AEON’s mission is to unify crypto and fiat payment systems, and the TokenPocket launch is a cornerstone of this vision. By integrating with regional payment networks like VietQR and ThaiQR, AEON ensures merchants can accept crypto without new hardware, automatically converting payments to local fiat. This has driven significant traction in Southeast Asia, with plans to expand into Africa, Latin America, and, by late 2025, North America and Europe through partnerships with Visa and Mastercard, per PRNewswire.
The collaboration also aligns with AEON’s AI-powered payment initiatives, such as its May 2025 partnership with PIN AI, enabling autonomous crypto payments by AI agents. This futuristic approach, combined with practical retail applications, positions AEON as a leader in the Web3 economy. As

Risks and Considerations
While the launch is exciting, users should remain cautious. Crypto payments, though streamlined by AEON, carry volatility risks, especially for non-stablecoin assets like ETH or BNB. Scams targeting DApp integrations are also a concern—always verify links via official channels like

How to Get Started
To use AEON Pay on TokenPocket:
- Download TokenPocket from https://www.tokenpocket.pro/ or your app store.
- Access the DApp browser and connect to AEON Pay.

The Road Ahead
The AEON Pay DApp’s launch on TokenPocket is a game-changer, bringing crypto payments to millions and solidifying AEON’s role in Web3 adoption. With plans for further wallet integrations and a $USD1 stablecoin rollout across 20 million Southeast Asian merchants, AEON is poised to redefine how we spend digital assets. As
@ogasamii tweeted, “AEON turns crypto into real-world cash. Multi-chain, instant payments—no borders, no fuss.”
