Juan José Gutiérrez, Corporate Director of Technology Services at Cecabank, explained the bank’s progress in enabling merchants to accept payments and clients to pay using stablecoins via POS terminals.
According to Juan José: “We are convinced this is moving forward, and as a wholesale bank, both in securities services and payments, we want to help our institutions offer wallets to their clients and allow any merchant to accept this type of digital money”.
The bank plans to launch the service in 2026, promoting payment digitisation and tapping into growing demand in tourism and high-value retail. The stablecoin market has already surpassed 300 billion dollars, consolidating its role as a global payment method.
