More Than 20M Merchants Now Accept TRON through AEON Pay

TRON and AEON Pay have joined forces to enable offline payments at over 20 million merchants across Southeast Asia using TRON-based assets.

AEON Pay now allows offline payments with TRON-based assets at over 20 million merchants throughout Southeast Asia. Daily activity on the TRON network has surged, with over 8 million transactions and 310 million international user accounts recorded recently. In a new partnership, TRON and AEON Pay have agreed to make daily shopping experiences directly payable with digital assets. Through this collaboration, users can use TRX, TRON’s native token, as well as USDT and USDD directly at the cashier, simply through the AEON Pay application.

Through AEON Pay (@AEON_Community), users can now transact using TRX, the native utility token of the TRON network. USDT and USDD on #TRON for offline payments are also included to bring fast and cost-effective digital payments into everyday retail experiences.

TRON and AEON Bring Crypto Payments to Real Life

What makes it interesting is that this system can already be utilized at more than 20 million merchants spread across Southeast Asia. From small corner stores to international brands in malls, all are included. The process is simple: open the AEON Pay app, scan the QR code, and pay with assets in the TRON wallet. The user experience previously limited to the digital realm is now tangible.

On the other hand, TRON has reached new heights in terms of adoption. The network records over 2.4 million daily USDT transactions, surpassing Ethereum’s 284,000. Even the USDT supply on TRON grew 27% in 2025, exceeding Ethereum.

From dApps to Daily Use, Adoption Keeps Climbing

This partnership is not surprising given TRON’s recent milestones. The network set a new record with over 8 million daily transactions on June 7, indicating increased user activity for transactions, dApps usage, and now, direct payments at merchants. Additionally, TRON reported a spike in daily active users on June 5. TRON DAO announced the network’s May revenue reached $343 million, driven by the growth in global user accounts, now at 310 million.

Partnering with AEON is significant as it marks the first large-scale offline payments coupled with stablecoins on the fast and economical TRON network. The partnership paves the way for seamless crypto transactions at retail establishments.

As TRX continues to show positive price trends, trading at about $0.2809 at press time, the collaboration with AEON Pay indicates a promising future for crypto payments at physical stores.
