Testnet coins are used for development and testing on the TON testnet. To obtain testnet Toncoin, a testnet wallet is required. Depending on the required amount of Toncoin, choose one of the following options:

​
Use Testgiver TON Bot

  1. Download Telegram and create an account.
  2. Open @testgiver_ton_bot in a browser and click Open Telegram.
  3. Once the bot opens, click Start to initiate the session.
  4. After the /start command is sent, the bot displays a welcome message. Click Get 2 TON in testnet to request test coins.
  5. A captcha prompt appears. Open the image to view it in full size and enter the displayed characters.
  6. Once the captcha is complete, enter the testnet wallet address.
  7. After submitting the address, a message confirms that the request is queued. Then, the bot processes it and sends 2 Toncoin in testnet.
  8. No additional confirmation is sent when the request is processed. To confirm receipt of the testnet Toncoin, see Verify the transfer.
  9. To request again, open the menu in the lower-left corner, select /get, and repeat the steps.

​
Use request form

Request up to 5,000 testnet TON by completing the token request form. The TON Foundation reviews the submission and transfers the tokens directly to the specified testnet wallet address.

​
Verify the transfer

After requesting tokens, use the Tonviewer Testnet explorer to verify that the transfer occurred.
  1. Open Tonviewer Testnet, enter the wallet address in the search bar, and click Find.
  2. The explorer shows the current balance and transaction history, including the testnet Toncoin received from the bot. The account state is uninit, indicating that the account is not deployed.
  3. To deploy the account send any transaction from the wallet.
