Blokko unveils crypto payment integration at NRF 2026

Blokko has expanded its payment software to run on LANDI Global's M20 device, allowing merchants to accept cryptocurrencies and stablecoins with local currency settlement. The integration debuts at NRF 2026: Retail’s Big Show in New York. This move aims to simplify cross-border transactions for retailers worldwide.

On January 11, 2026, Blokko, a financial technology company, announced a significant upgrade to its payment platform during a press release from New York. The software now integrates with LANDI Global's M20 mobility device, enabling merchants to process payments from crypto wallets and international digital wallets while settling in their local currency. This eliminates issues like volatility and complexity in cross-border payments.

The platform supports major cryptocurrencies and stablecoins such as USDT and USDC from the world's largest exchanges. It also incorporates real-time payment systems across Latin America, including Pix in Brazil, Codi in Mexico, PSE and Bre-B in Colombia, QRU in Argentina, Simple/QR in Bolivia, Ligo in Peru, and Khipu in Chile. Blokko's omnichannel approach allows retailers to offer these options both online and in physical stores through a unified interface.

Gustavo Jimenez, CEO of Blokko, emphasized the importance of adapting to new payment trends: “Retailers today cannot afford to ignore the shift toward regional instant payment rails and digital assets. By partnering with LANDI at NRF, we are demonstrating that whether a customer wants to pay with a digital wallet from Argentina, Chile, or an international crypto exchange, the merchant experience remains fast, secure, and simple. Our goal is to make global commerce truly borderless.”

Eliezer Garcia, Managing Director for Latin America and the Caribbean at LANDI, added: “Our goal is to support all forms of payment so merchants can adopt innovative solutions that adapt to their needs and prepare them for the future. LANDI has over 20 years of experience manufacturing payment and commerce solutions, enabling Blokko on our devices allows us to combine proven hardware expertise with next-generation payment innovation—delivered simply and securely.”

Live demonstrations of the integration will occur at LANDI's Booth 2253 during NRF 2026. Blokko focuses on bridging traditional finance with digital assets for e-commerce and retail, while LANDI has shipped over 100 million POS devices globally.

This development promises faster transactions and lower costs for merchants, potentially expanding access to global markets for consumers using digital payments.
