tZERO Group, Inc., a blockchain-powered multi-asset infrastructure innovator, announced the launch of tZERO Connect, an API-first platform designed to give institutions and fintech partners programmable access to its regulated digital securities and tokenized real-world asset (RWA) infrastructure. The initiative, announced on October 30, 2025, aligns with tZERO’s strategic focus on facilitating institutional B2B and B2B2C partner access.
Key features include tokenization and issuance APIs that enable partners to conduct compliant digital securities offerings within their own platforms. Secondary trading APIs, expected in late 2025 or early 2026, will support order routing, market data access, and post-trade automation for tokenized assets, including public and private securities. Data APIs provide access to trades, order book depth, and best bid/offer data for real-time analytics.
Partner integrations offer white-label access for broker-dealers, custodians, and fintechs to embed tZERO infrastructure. The follow-the-sun network connects market leaders like Alphaledger, Archax, and Lynq, using services from Zerohash, Fireblocks, and other partners. The platform is built on tZERO’s SEC- and FINRA-regulated broker-dealer, ATS, and special purpose broker-dealer for digital custody, with pending CFTC DCO/DCM applications.
“Our mission is to make it simple for institutions to access the benefits of tokenization in a robust cross-asset and cross-border 24/7 marketplace,” said Alan Konevsky, CEO of tZERO. “tZERO Connect allows partners to plug directly into our ecosystem - bringing tokenized securities to investors where they already are - bridging traditional and digital market infrastructure.”
With primary issuance APIs live and secondary trading APIs forthcoming, tZERO Connect offers seamless programmatic access to brokerage, clearing, custody, and trading capabilities. Partners can route orders, access market data, and manage tokenized securities activity while maintaining client experience control. tZERO’s regulated entities provide compliance, security, and transparency.
“APIs are the connective tissue of modern financial markets,” added Konevsky. “By combining an API-first mindset with our partnership approach and strategy across supply, demand, global rails, defi connectivity, institutional services and public markets innovation, tZERO Connect builds the rails that let institutions operate seamlessly across asset classes - from traditional to digital.”
The platform supports a follow-the-sun model to link global financial ecosystems through regional partnerships, extending compliant digital asset infrastructure worldwide. tZERO positions itself as a leader in blockchain and tokenization innovation, delivering institutional-grade technology and a regulated marketplace for tokenized securities and other assets.
