How to Check a TRC20 Wallet Balance and Track a Tron Wallet

Need to check a TRC20 wallet balance without opening the wallet app? Or track a Tron wallet that belongs to a counterparty? Here are the fastest ways.

Method 1: Tronscan (no login)

  1. Go to tronscan.org.
  2. Paste the Tron address.
  3. The "Assets" panel lists TRX and every TRC20 token with the amount and USD value.

Use the address validator first so you do not look up a mistyped address.

Method 2: OKLink or GetBlock explorer

Alternative explorers such as OKLink and GetBlock show the same on-chain data and are useful when Tronscan is slow.

Method 3: Tron wallet tracker with alerts

To track a Tron wallet continuously (e.g. a business partner or a suspected scammer), use a TRC20 wallet tracker:

  • BitOK — portfolio dashboard plus AML risk of each counterparty.
  • AMLBot — monitoring of addresses with Telegram alerts.
  • Tronscan "Watchlist" — requires a free account, emails you on new transactions.

Check the balance via API (for developers)

TronGrid / GetBlock expose GET /v1/accounts/{address} which returns TRX balance and trc20 token balances. Combine it with an AML API from the catalog to build your own USDT tracker with risk screening.

Balance is not the whole story

A wallet with a large USDT balance can still be a trap (see the multisig scam) or hold frozen funds. Always check permissions and the Tether blacklist label on Tronscan, and run an AML check before transacting.
