# WalletConnect Pay Partners with Blokko.io to Bring Crypto and Stablecoin Payments to Latin American Merchants

Saman Nargund

Ecosystem & Marketing Partnerships Lead

We're excited to announce a new partnership between WalletConnect Pay and [Blokko.io](https://blokko.io/), a leading alternative payment method provider serving merchants across the United States and Latin America.

Together, we're bringing crypto and stablecoin payments to Blokko's network of point-of-sale terminals and ecommerce integrations — making it easier than ever for merchants and their customers to transact using the digital assets they already hold.

## What This Means for Merchants

Through this integration, merchants in Blokko's network will gain access to WalletConnect Pay as a native payment method. That means:

- **Acceptance across 700+ wallets**, reaching over 500 million users on day one
- **No changes to existing setup** — no new checkout flows, settlement processes, or reconciliation workflows required
- **Instant checkout via QR code** — customers scan and authorize in seconds from their preferred crypto wallet
- **2% cashback in $WCT** for customers on every purchase

"Our merchants are serving customers who increasingly want to pay with the assets they already hold. WalletConnect Pay gives us a single, reliable integration to meet that demand — across POS and ecommerce, and at a scale we couldn't achieve building point-to-point."

— **Gustavo Jimenez**, CEO, Blokko.io

## Why Latin America, Why Now

Latin America is one of the fastest-moving markets for stablecoin adoption in the world. Consumers and businesses across the region are already using stablecoins as a practical tool — to preserve value, move money across borders, and sidestep slower, higher-cost traditional payment rails.

This partnership is a meaningful step in WalletConnect Pay's regional expansion and a reflection of where real-world crypto utility is happening today.

### "Latin America is one of the most important markets for crypto and stablecoin payments right now. Stablecoins aren't a novelty here, they're a practical tool people are already using to preserve value and move money across borders. We're thrilled to be working with Blokko to deliver a seamless crypto and stablecoin payment experience to users across the region."

**— Jess Houlgrave, CEO, WalletConnect**

## Built on the World's Largest Wallet Network

WalletConnect Pay is built on the WalletConnect Network, which powered over $400 billion in 2025. The integration with Blokko joins a growing list of payment technology partnerships, including Ingenico, the world's leading payment terminal provider, as WalletConnect Pay continues to expand its global footprint.
