customer stories

Why do leading crypto companies choose Toku over legacy, non-crypto providers

“We recently needed to transition a key employee from the US to Switzerland on a visa. Toku had them onboarded within days, not weeks and they took care of tax on their token-based compensation – something our previous provider said was impossible.”
“When we had questions about implementing a complex token compensation plan across fifteen jurisdictions, we didn't get a random sales pitch or a 'let me check with our team' response. Instead, we had a deep dive session with their head of token payroll who proposed a custom solution on the spot that even our lawyers didn’t think of. Super impressed with Toku ever since.”
“The real-time tax calculations have been invaluable. We've moved off Deel and KPMG and finally eliminated reconciliation errors on our RTUs. I am amazed how Toku can offer such depth of expertise.  It's leagues ahead of traditional providers.”
Toku's global stablecoin payroll solution is a game-changer. As a distributed team with people across 8 countries, we struggled with traditional systems. Toku set us up to pay everyone in USDC, handling all the compliance and tax implications. It's dramatically simplified our operations and our team loves the flexibility.
I can't overstate how crucial Toku's support was for our token launch. We were facing a mountain of tasks and deadlines, but their team stepped in, talked to our external counsel and then managed the entire process. From red teaming our token grant structure to ensuring our investors were properly set up, they had it all covered.
We needed a custom integration for staking. They got it done in less than 24 hours.

Toku makes hiring and paying international employees in fiat, stablecoins or tokens easy.
