TON Foundation, a non-profit organisation supporting the development of TON Blockchain, has selected OpenPayd to provide the global fiat infrastructure underpinning its rapidly expanding ecosystem.
OpenPayd’s universal financial infrastructure will serve as a core operational layer for TON Foundation, connecting international fiat rails through a single API. This enables TON Foundation to fund ecosystem grants more efficiently, streamline multi-currency treasury operations, and support the global community of builders contributing to TON’s development.
TON Foundation stewards the development and long-term vision of TON Blockchain, a decentralised, open-source blockchain native to Telegram. Deeply embedded within Telegram’s interface, TON serves as the exclusive blockchain infrastructure powering the platform’s Mini App ecosystem, supporting more than 1 billion monthly active users.
By integrating with OpenPayd, TON Foundation can now route fiat flows to and from ecosystem partners, community programmes and operational activities across multiple regions – all through a unified infrastructure designed for international reach and rapid scale.
Iana Dimitrova, CEO of OpenPayd, said: “TON Foundation is building one of the most strategically positioned blockchain ecosystems in the world. Their community-led model, combined with their integration into the Telegram environment, creates extraordinary global reach, and that requires financial infrastructure that can match it. We’re proud to have been chosen by TON Foundation to support their fiat operations, enabling them to fund grants, support builders and scale new initiatives across borders with ease.”
Max Crown, President and CEO of TON Foundation, said, “Partnering with OpenPayd gives us a far more agile and globally connected financial backbone. Through this integration, we can now move funds at greater speed, simplify how we manage currencies, and resource the teams and builders driving TON’s growth more effectively. It’s an upgrade to our core operations and a catalyst for the next stage of our global growth.”
