Transfer Online Partners With OnchainTA to Expand Tokenized Securities Services

SEC-registered transfer agent Transfer Online, Inc. entered a partnership with OnchainTA, a subsidiary of capital markets infrastructure provider Akemona, Inc., to add tokenized securities capabilities across its issuer client base on Nov. 3, 2026 ¹.

Under the agreement, Transfer Online will maintain its position as the primary transfer agent of record and direct client contact ¹. OnchainTA, which has operated as an SEC-registered digital transfer agent since 2021, will supply the underlying tokenization mechanics, digital security recordkeeping, corporate action execution, and reconciliation reporting through Transfer Online's workflows ¹. The commercial details of the arrangement were not disclosed ¹. Transfer Online plans to roll out the tokenization options to its public and private corporate clients in early 2027 ¹.

Digital Cap Tables and Direct Transfers

The integration coincides with the upcoming rollout of OnchainTA Release 2, which will deliver self-service portals alongside features including compliant peer-to-peer direct transfers, cap table tokenization, and digital cap tables ¹. These tools allow verified equity positions to transition into administered digital securities governed by transfer agent controls ¹. Transfer Online personnel will undergo training on Akemona's system to handle reporting, transaction data, and exception tracking ¹.

The move aligns with broader capital market efforts to bridge legacy recordkeeping with distributed ledger administration, comparable to how institutions like DTCC have introduced digital asset services for traditional custody ¹. At the time of writing, broader digital asset markets were trading steadily, with $BTC at $77,721 and $ETH at $2,290.
