Money20/20 USA 2026: What the Las Vegas Fintech Event Is and Why Linka Will Be There

More than 11,000 executives from 3,400 companies and over 85 countries are gathering in Las Vegas this week. One in three holds a C-suite title. This is Money20/20 USA 2026, where banks, payment networks, fintechs and merchants shape much of the payments industry’s partnerships for the year.

This article explains what Money20/20 is, what the 2026 edition is focused on, and why it matters for companies moving money into and out of Latin America.

What is Money20/20

Money20/20 is a network of events focused on payments and financial services. In addition to the US edition in Las Vegas, it runs in Europe (Amsterdam), the Middle East (Riyadh) and Asia (Bangkok).

Unlike an academic conference, its format is built for doing business. Alongside panels and keynotes, the event runs one-on-one meetings through its app, Money20/20 Connect, where attendees book time with banks, investors and technology providers.

The US edition is the largest in the network. Its organizers describe it as the country’s leading fintech event.

What’s on the 2026 agenda

This year’s official agenda centers on agentic AI, fraud prevention, finance-as-a-service, payments and regulation. Keynote speakers include William Demchak, Chairman and CEO of PNC Financial Services; Cameron Fowler, CEO of Early Warning; and Mariëtte Swart, Chief Risk & Compliance Officer at Adyen.

Independent event guides list stablecoins among this edition’s content pillars, alongside partnerships to scale and regulatory guardrails. For an industry moving more value across borders, the conversation is no longer only about which technology to use, but how to integrate it with banks, regulators and compliance.

Why it matters for Latin America

Much of the infrastructure Latin American companies use to pay and collect abroad depends on decisions made in the United States: which banks provide dollar accounts and liquidity, which payment networks open new corridors, and which compliance standards become the norm.

Money20/20 USA brings those players together in one place for four days. For a fintech from the region, it is a concrete opportunity to meet banking partners, liquidity providers and companies with operations in Latin America.

Linka at Money20/20 USA

Víctor Egoavil, CEO and founder of Linka, will be in Las Vegas for Money20/20 USA, October 18–21.

Linka is a B2B fintech headquartered in Lima, operating across several Latin American markets. It works on three fronts:

• International stablecoin payments: B2B payment settlement in USDT and USDC, with costs visible before you confirm.
• OTC Desk: conversion of corporate-size amounts between local currency, US dollars and stablecoins.
• Trade Finance: working capital for importers and exporters.

The company has a particular focus on the Latin America–Asia trade corridor and serves clients in the United States, Europe and Asia. It arrives in Las Vegas a few weeks after processing what trade and crypto press reported as the first documented import in Peru paid with stablecoins, and after taking part in Money20/20 Asia in Bangkok earlier this year.

For banks, payment networks, liquidity providers and companies operating in the region, Money20/20 USA is an opportunity to talk with Linka about cross-border payments, stablecoin settlement and trade finance.
