In this paper we discuss and prove an analogy of the Carleson–Hunt theorem with respect to Vilenkin systems. In particular, we use the theory of martingales and give a new and shorter proof of the almost everywhere convergence of Vilenkin–Fourier series of $$f\in L_p(G_m)$$
f
∈
L
p
(
G
m
)
for $$p>1$$
p
>
1
in case the Vilenkin system is bounded. Moreover, we also prove sharpness by stating an analogy of the Kolmogorov theorem for $$p=1$$
p
=
1
and construct a function $$f\in L_1(G_m)$$
f
∈
L
1
(
G
m
)
such that the partial sums with respect to Vilenkin systems diverge everywhere.
