Bounceable address (TON)

Last updated:

Applies to: TON

In more detail

The same account can be written in bounceable (EQ… on mainnet, kQ… on testnet) or non-bounceable (UQ…, 0Q…) form; both decode to the same workchain and account ID. Bounceable addresses suit smart contracts, where a failed call should refund. Non-bounceable addresses are recommended for wallets, so that a transfer to a wallet that is not deployed yet is still credited.

Compare TON addresses by their raw workchain and account ID, never as strings.
