What it is

Traditional equity instruments, issued as tokenized securities.

Tokenized equity compensation lets companies represent RSUs and stock awards as on-chain tokenized securities. The underlying instrument is the same as traditional equity. The wrapper is tokenized. Toku handles the administration around it.

What it is. Administration infrastructure for tokenized equity instruments — RSUs and stock grants represented as tokenized securities. Toku handles the operational layer: plan administration, vesting tracking, distribution, withholding calculation by jurisdiction, and reporting.

What it isn’t. This is not token grants. It is not TGA. Token grants are issuer-issued utility or governance tokens administered through TGA. Tokenized equity is RSUs or stock — traditional securities — wrapped in a tokenized form. The two products are sister products, not the same product.

Who it’s for. Companies exploring tokenized equity instruments for global teams, particularly where traditional equity administration runs into cross-border complexity.

From plan setup to recipient distribution.

STEP 01
Plan administration
Set up the equity plan in the platform. Define grant types, vesting schedules, eligibility, and the tokenization structure for the underlying instrument.
STEP 02
Vesting tracking
Vesting schedules run automatically. Cliffs, vesting tranches, and acceleration events are tracked per recipient with audit-ready history.
STEP 03
Distribution with withholding
At each distribution event, withholding is calculated per recipient based on their jurisdiction. The platform handles the calculation; the company makes the remittance.
STEP 04
Reporting
Audit-ready reports for finance, legal, and tax teams. Per-jurisdiction withholding breakdowns, distribution histories, and plan-level summaries.
FAQ

Common questions about tokenized equity.

Is this the same as token grants?
No. Token grants are issuer-issued tokens administered through our TGA product. Tokenized equity is RSUs or stock — traditional equity instruments — issued in tokenized form. They are sister products, not the same product.
What does Toku actually handle?
Plan administration, vesting tracking, distribution scheduling, per-jurisdiction tax withholding calculation, and audit-ready reporting. The legal structure of the instrument itself is set up by the company and its counsel.
Do you provide legal advice on structuring the plan?
No. Toku provides compliance infrastructure; we are not a law firm. Plan structure, securities filings, and jurisdictional legal analysis are work for your legal, tax, and financial advisers.
What jurisdictions are supported?
Jurisdictional coverage depends on the specific plan structure and the recipients. The team will walk through the jurisdictions on your plan and confirm what’s supported on a demo call.
