The Chiptones are yellow, Banandium Chip-shaped Fractones in Donkey Kong Bananza. They run the Chip Exchanges, where Banandium Chips can be exchanged for Banandium Gems, and discs in the post-game. Chiptones appear on every layer except the Divide, the Junction, the Racing Layer, and DK Island. Trustytone takes the shape of a Chiptone when simulating the Chip Exchange.

In the DK Island & Emerald Rush DLC, a statue of Chiptone can be collected and placed on the northern side of the Northeast Rocks at DK Island.
