Global stablecoin infrastructure provider secures its second consecutive Money Awards win, following its 2025 Grand Prix win in Payments, amid a landmark year of international expansion.




Yellow Card, a leading global stablecoin infrastructure provider, has won Gold in the Diamond category at the 2026 Money Awards, held on Sunday, 18 October, in Las Vegas as part of Money20/20 USA. The recognition marks the company’s second consecutive win at the awards, following its Grand Prix victory in the Payments category in 2025.

Money20/20 describes the Diamond category as the program’s highest honor, celebrating the most transformative achievement in global fintech.

“When we started the business almost ten years ago, we had big ambitions, but we couldn’t have imagined just how far this journey would take us,” said Chris Maurice, CEO and Co-Founder of Yellow Card.

“This year, we made bold decisions to take what we’d built in emerging markets and expand our vision globally. Today, we’re working alongside some of the world’s largest corporate and financial institutions. To receive this recognition, particularly at this stage of our journey, is incredibly meaningful. I’m proud of what we’ve achieved and grateful to the entire team for making it possible.”

The award follows a defining year for Yellow Card. In June, the company was named to Fortune’s inaugural Crypto Innovators list. It subsequently secured $40 million in strategic funding, expanded its footprint across Latin America, Asia-Pacific and North America, and secured AML regulatory affiliation in Switzerland.


In addition, the company also launched Global Accounts, enabling businesses to open named USD, GBP and EUR accounts and connect to local payment rails in more than 190 countries through a single API or its Treasury Portal.

For Justin Poiroux, CTO and Co-Founder, the recognition is also a celebration of the technology and people behind the company’s growth.

“You spend years with your head down, solving complex challenges and building technology that makes moving money across borders simpler. Then you see that technology making a real difference for businesses around the world, and you realize the impact of what you’ve built. To have that work recognized on a global stage, for the second year running, is incredibly rewarding. It’s a proud moment for the entire team.”

Yellow Card’s second consecutive Money Awards win reflects its growing influence in global financial services, as the company continues to expand its international presence and build the stablecoin infrastructure connecting businesses and financial institutions across markets.
