Buy or rent TRON energy for USDT transfers

A USDT (TRC-20) transfer consumes energy: 65,000 when the receiver already holds USDT, 131,000 when it does not. Without energy the network burns TRX from the sender, 6.50 TRX for 65,000 energy at today's fee. With rented energy the transfer costs the rental price instead.
You never send a private key and never sign anything to receive energy: it is delegated to your address and nothing leaves your wallet. Pay with a direct TRX transfer and skip the account, or top up a balance and order from the dashboard or the API.

Paste a TRON address, or several — one per line.
Your wallet is asked only when you press the button.
One USDT transfer, two ways to pay for it
A USDT transfer to an address that already holds USDT needs 65,000 energy. Without energy the network burns TRX for it; with rented energy you pay the rental instead.
Burn: chain parameter getEnergyFee, 100 SUN per energy. Rent: our live 1-hour price for 65,000 energy, now.

Why it is safe
Energy rental is common practice: Trust Wallet's gasless USDT transfers run on rented energy, and payment services rent it for their deposit addresses.

api-nile.tenergy.meFAQ
How much energy does a USDT transfer need?
65,000 energy when the receiver already holds USDT, 131,000 when its USDT balance is zero: writing a balance into an empty slot costs about twice as much. Measured on mainnet: 64,285 and 130,285.
How much does it cost?
The live price of the cheapest provider for your amount, shown above the order form. It changes with the hour of the day; the pricing page maps when it is lowest.
How long does the energy last?
One hour from delegation. Use it for as many transfers as it covers within the hour.
Do I need an account?
Not for a direct transfer: send TRX from your wallet to the address in the order form and the energy goes to the wallet that paid. A payment below 64,000 energy stays on that wallet's balance with us for the next order. The dashboard and the API use an account you open by signing in with your wallet.
What happens to my payment if the order fails or costs less?
Any refund goes to the balance of the wallet that paid, not back to the wallet itself. If the energy could not be delivered, the payment returns there; if it cost less than the price at the moment of payment, the difference does. Sign in on tenergy.me with that same wallet: in the dashboard you can spend the balance on a new order or withdraw it to that wallet (1 TRX fee, at least 10 TRX after the fee).
Do you ever need my private key or seed phrase?
No. Energy is delegated to a public address you name; nothing leaves the wallet and no approval is given. Anything that asks for a key while renting energy is an attack.
Can I retry a request that timed out?
Yes. Send your own order id with every API order. Retrying the identical request returns the original order rather than creating a second one.
