How to prove you own a TON wallet

Connect your TON wallet and approve one request. TON Connect has the wallet sign a proof as it connects, which anyone can check against your address.

Updated 13 Oct 2026

How it works

TON wallets don't usually sign free-form messages. Instead, TON Connect has a built-in ownership proof, ton_proof: when you connect, the wallet signs a short challenge from the website together with the website's name, your address and the time. VerifiedWallet's challenge names your certificate request.

Because a TON address is the fingerprint of the wallet's own setup data, the proof can be checked completely: the setup data must produce your address, it must contain the key that signed, and the signature must match.

  • No transaction: nothing is sent and no TON is spent.
  • Bound to us: the proof names verifiedwallet.io, so a proof made for another site can't be reused here.

Step by step

  1. Open Get certified and choose Connect a TON wallet.
  2. Pick your wallet from the list: Keeper (formerly Tonkeeper), Walt (formerly Telegram Wallet), My Wallet, Tonhub, OKX and others. Scan the QR code, open Telegram, or use the browser extension.
  3. Approve the connection in the wallet. That's the proof; you go straight to payment.

Good to know

  • TON addresses are shown as UQ… (or EQ…): they're the same address in two forms, and both work.
  • Tier 3 on-chain screening isn't available for TON yet. Tiers 1 and 2 are.

Questions

Does connecting cost TON?

No. The proof is signed when you connect; nothing is sent and there's no network fee.

Which TON wallets work?

Any TON Connect wallet that supports ton_proof, including Keeper (Tonkeeper), Walt (Telegram Wallet), My Wallet (MyTonWallet), Tonhub, OKX and Bitget.

Is UQ… or EQ… my address?

Both: they're the same TON address with a different flag. Wallets show UQ… for personal wallets; either can be looked up.
