AEON to enable NEO payments across Southeast Asia via Neo X integration
April 26, 2025 in General AEON has partnered with Neo to support NEO token payments across millions of merchants throughout Southeast Asia and other emerging markets. The integration will be facilitated through Neo X, enabling the use of the NEO token in a format compatible with the ERC-20 standard. As NEO is indivisible on Neo N3, AEON Pay will exclusively support the Neo X version. This compatibility allows AEON to offer a streamlined solution for crypto payments using the familiar infrastructure of EVM and Solana VM-compatible networks, as well as emerging blockchain ecosystems like TON. AEON is a mobile platform that provides payment solutions across various blockchain ecosystems. The platform is aimed at simplifying crypto payment acceptance for businesses, enabling the use of NEO to make purchases through a merchant’s existing point-of-sale system. Merchants are not required to modify their current payment infrastructure to utilize AEON Pay, which the team claims to provide a consistent and intuitive user experience across a wide range of wallets, tokens, and blockchain networks. In addition to its core Web3 mobile payment solution, AEON is actively exploring integrations with emerging technologies, including artificial intelligence, to enhance its service offerings. Users can access AEON Pay through its dedicated Telegram mini-app to begin making purchases using NEO on Neo X.
