Turnkey has added native support for Canton Network, giving developers a way to generate Canton-compatible keys, register Canton Parties, and sign Canton transactions through a single API, without building custom signing infrastructure from scratch.

Canton's architecture differs from the wallet infrastructure most development teams use today. While major networks like EVM chains and Solana have broad tooling support, Canton has its own identity model, Party structure, and signing requirements. Until now, teams building on Canton often had to piece together key generation, Party registration, and transaction signing themselves, adding engineering overhead, operational complexity, and security responsibility that sits outside the core application they are trying to build.

Turnkey's Canton support removes that overhead. Keys are protected inside enclave-backed infrastructure, and signing is governed through the same policy controls and auditability the platform provides across other networks. The integration works with both local Canton development environments and live Canton nodes, so teams can use a consistent signing flow from testing through to production. A reference implementation for Party registration is also available.

The product is aimed at teams building financial applications on Canton, including tokenized asset platforms, settlement systems, private market infrastructure, and multi-party institutional workflows. Canton counts DTCC, JPMorgan, HSBC, Broadridge, and Citadel Securities among the institutions already building on the network.

Turnkey is non-custodial by design, allowing teams to give users control over their own keys while still meeting the security requirements of regulated financial applications.
