Swaps in TON Space


How to swap tokens in TON Space

At the top of the TON Space main menu, you’ll find the “Swap” button.

To initiate a swap:

  1. Tap “Swap”.
  2. Select the token you want to exchange.
  3. Choose the token you want to receive.
  4. Enter the amount and confirm the transaction.


How Swapping Works

  • The swap is executed via the partner service Ston.fi; TON Space simply provides a convenient interface for accessing DEX services.
  • The swap fee can be paid either in TON or Telegram Stars — you can choose the preferred option when confirming the transaction.

You can learn more about fees paid in Telegram Stars here.

Important Notes

If the swap is not completed for any reason, the fee is not refunded, as it has already been deducted and sent to the network. This may be due to technical issues on the blockchain or DEX side.

If you have any issues related to the Ston.fi service, you can contact their support team at: @STONfi_support_bot.


Which assets can be swapped

Decentralized exchanges (DEX’s) support various asset pairs for swapping. Not all assets are supported. To initiate a swap from within TON Space, you need to:

  • Have enough TON on your balance to cover the gas fee required for a transaction on the blockchain.
  • Have the asset you are swapping from, in the selected quantity.
  • Choose an asset that is supported by one of the DEXs compatible with TON Space.

I see a label next to a jetton in TON Space: “The community does not have information regarding this jetton”. What does it mean

This label indicates that the token is not whitelisted by the community.

This notice may appear in two cases:

  • The token was recently created and has not yet been reviewed.
  • The token lacks verified value or there is no information confirming its reliability.

Before interacting with such tokens:

  • Conduct your own research (DYOR — Do Your Own Research).
  • Exercise caution: such tokens may be illiquid, fraudulent or temporary.


If you are the token creator:

You can apply for your token to be whitelisted after completing the required verification process. To do so, use the official application form.


I want to obtain a specific jetton, but don’t see its name in the swap list. What should I do

A limited number of jettons are available for swaps.

The list of available jettons for swap in TON Space depends on several factors, including the liquidity of a specific jetton (TVL - Total Value Locked), and can change from time to time.

TVL is the amount of frozen or staked crypto assets in scope of a particular DeFi protocol.

You can swap TON for various jettons, and the jettons themselves can be swapped for TON and only some Jettons. The list is limited and depends on the specific Jetton you wish to exchange.

If a jetton is not available for swap in TON Space, you can try to exchange it via other platforms, where it's supported (for example, Ston.Fi).


I am not able to swap in TON Space. I receive an error asking to add TON. What should I do

Every blockchain transaction requires a network fee. All swaps in the TON blockchain pay a commission in TON, regardless of what is being swapped. For example, if you swap Notcoin to USDT, you still need some TON to pay the network fee.

To successfully cover the network fee costs, you need to reserve at least 1.05 TON in your TON Space wallet.

If you don’t have enough TON in your balance, you can top up your TON Space in the following ways:


A swap in TON Space was not successful, but there was a commission charge. Will it be refunded

No, it won’t be possible to refund a transaction fee. Since the exchange in TON Space takes place via blockchain, a small network fee in TON is charged for such transactions.

Network fee is taken to maintain the blockchain operations and execute transfers. As with other transactions that occur on the blockchain, they are irreversible and the fees cannot be refunded.
