Americas Cardroom Expands Cryptocurrency Network Integrations to Support Faster Poker Payment Settlement

Americas Cardroom, part of the Winning Poker Network (WPN), announced ongoing testing of additional cryptocurrency network integrations, including BNB, Tron, Polygon, and Solana, as part of its payment infrastructure roadmap through the end of Q1 2026.

The expanded network support is intended to improve transaction flexibility and settlement efficiency for poker players using cryptocurrency to move funds across borders and access winnings more quickly.

Cryptocurrency has become a practical tool for platforms serving international player communities, where traditional banking rails can involve longer processing times or geographic limitations. By supporting multiple blockchain networks, Americas Cardroom aims to provide players with additional options for sending and receiving funds securely within its ecosystem.

Americas Cardroom reports that its average cryptocurrency payout is processed in under 15 minutes, allowing players to access winnings and re-enter larger events without extended withdrawal delays.

For high-volume tournament environments, settlement speed and liquidity can be operationally important, particularly for players managing balances across jurisdictions.

In addition to online play, the company notes that cryptocurrency-enabled account functionality supports participation in live poker events, including Punta del Este, where players can buy in and cash out through their Americas Cardroom poker accounts.

The network expansion builds on Americas Cardroom’s history as an early adopter of Bitcoin in online poker payments.

“I’ve been with Americas Cardroom for 14 years, and I still remember when the very first Bitcoin deposits started coming through — at a time when almost no one in the industry truly understood what crypto was,” said Adriana Brenes, Chief Operating Officer. “What started as a challenge for our customer support and payments teams quickly became a company-wide mission.”

Brenes added that the company’s approach required operational readiness across departments, not only technical implementation.

“We decided to go further than just understanding crypto on a surface level,” she said. “Every single person in the company learned how to open a wallet, send funds, and receive funds. Through continuous learning and by truly listening to our players, we evolved alongside them.”

Americas Cardroom has also reached notable milestones in cryptocurrency-based payouts. The company holds a GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™ title for the largest Bitcoin payout ever issued, totaling $1,050,650.

The Winning Poker Network expects testing and rollout of additional blockchain integrations to continue through the end of Q1 2026, reflecting a focus on settlement efficiency, payment accessibility, and real-world transaction utility for players.
