  For an abeloid variety $A$ over a complete algebraically closed field
extension $K$ of $\mathbb Q_p$, we construct a $p$-adic Corlette-Simpson
correspondence, namely an equivalence between finite-dimensional continuous
$K$-linear representations of the Tate module and a certain subcategory of the
Higgs bundles on $A$. To do so, our central object of study is the category of
vector bundles for the $v$-topology on the diamond associated to $A$. We prove
that any pro-finite-\'etale $v$-vector bundle can be built from
pro-finite-\'etale $v$-line bundles and unipotent $v$-bundles. To describe the
latter, we extend the theory of universal vector extensions to the $v$-topology
and use this to generalise a result of Brion by relating unipotent $v$-bundles
on abeloids to representations of vector groups.
