Getgems

Getgems (getgems.io) is the largest-by-volume NFT marketplace on the TON blockchain. It hosts classic TON NFT collections, .ton domains, anonymous numbers, Telegram usernames and — since 2024 — upgraded Telegram Gifts withdrawn to a TON wallet.

What trades on Getgems

• Classic TON NFT collections — art collections, GameFi assets, memecoin-themed NFTs, utility passes, character NFTs.
• TON DNS domains — .ton names, including short and brandable ones.
• Anonymous Numbers / Telegram Usernames — official virtual numbers and rare usernames issued by Telegram as TON NFTs.
• Upgraded Telegram Gifts — once withdrawn from Telegram to a TON address, gifts appear as regular NFTs and trade on Getgems alongside other collections.

How it differs from gift-specific marketplaces

Portals, Tonnel and MRKT are Telegram-native venues built specifically for gifts. Getgems is a general-purpose NFT marketplace — broader but less specialised:

• Wider catalogue. Beyond gifts, hundreds of collections — from NFT domains to GameFi assets.
• Web-UI first. Getgems works in a browser and supports TON Connect — better for desktop trading and portfolio management.
• Shallower gift book. On gift-specific venues, liquidity on top collections is typically deeper and spreads tighter.
• Auctions and timed sales. For rare lots, Getgems supports classic NFT mechanics — reserve-price auctions, time-bound sales.

How to combine with gift marketplaces

Experienced gift traders typically use all four venues together:

1. Quick buy/sell — Portals (deepest liquidity).
2. Fee arbitrage — Tonnel.
3. Grail hunting by filter — MRKT.
4. Rare-lot auctions and portfolio management — Getgems after withdrawing gifts to a TON wallet.

Connection and fees

• TON Connect. Connect via Tonkeeper, MyTonWallet or Wallet in Telegram. Read signature prompts carefully — Getgems never asks you to «approve all».
• Fee. Standard seller fee historically sits around 5%, but exact rates vary by category — verify before listing.
• Royalty. On NFTs with royalty enabled the seller also pays a percentage to the collection creator — Telegram gift collections usually have no royalty, but classic TON NFTs can carry 5–10%.

For most gift holders Getgems does not replace Portals/Tonnel/MRKT but complements them: rare lots, auctions and part of portfolio management migrate there when you need a general-purpose NFT tool rather than a Telegram showcase.
