0xProcessing has been named a finalist for Payment Solution of the Year at the SBC Awards 2026. This places it among the strongest payment providers in the global betting and gaming industry.
The shortlist puts 0xProcessing alongside names like PayPal, Trustly, Worldpay, and Yaspa, a lineup that says a lot about how far crypto payment infrastructure has come in this sector. For a specialist crypto processor to sit next to that group in a payments category is recognition that on-chain payments have moved from novelty to serious infrastructure for regulated operators.
About the SBC Awards 2026
Now in its 13th edition, the SBC Awards are among the most prominent honours in betting and gaming. This year's ceremony takes place on Thursday, October 1, 2026, at Lisbon's MEO Arena, closing out SBC Summit 2026.
The evening will bring together around 1,200 industry pros and present 38 awards covering operators, suppliers, payments, compliance, marketing and technology. The widest summit is scheduled to take place from 29 September to 1 October, and is expected to attract approximately 40,000 attendees.
Why does this matter?
0xProcessing was developed to meet the specific needs of the verticals SBC represents. This includes iGaming, betting, and other regulated, high-risk sectors that mainstream payment providers often decline. The shortlist shows what's important to the people running this sector. This includes things like getting payments sorted quickly, not having to worry about chargebacks for crypto transactions, doing Anti-Money Laundering (AML) checks in real-time on incoming funds, and being able to process payouts 24/7.
The fact that our company has been recognised in a category that also features global payment giants is indicative of a shift that we have been closely monitoring: crypto is no longer an alternative bolted onto a betting platform. For a growing number of operators, it is a fundamental component of their payment infrastructure.
Next steps
The winners will be announced at the MEO Arena on October 1, 2026. Whatever happens, being picked for this well-respected shortlist and being chosen from all the big names in the payments industry is a massive achievement for us. We thank the SBC judging panel and our trusted operators and partners for your ongoing faith in us.
