Taxing Matters: NOWPayments and KoinX Team Up So Your Crypto Books Don't End Up in Detention 🧾

NOWPayments and KoinX have jointly released Crypto Tax Educational Assets, a set of jurisdiction-specific resources aimed at helping merchants, platforms and global businesses understand tax, accounting and reporting obligations tied to digital asset acceptance. The toolkit, announced from Amsterdam on June 26th, 2026, covers regions including Spain, the EU, UAE, LATAM and other markets, with free access to a Crypto Tax Checklist available through the companies.

The collaboration targets a recurring operational gap identified by both firms: while crypto payment acceptance has become simpler, regulatory expectations continue to vary across borders, and businesses operating in multiple jurisdictions often lack clear guidance. NOWPayments said payments infrastructure alone is no longer sufficient to support business adoption of crypto, and that operational confidence, compliance readiness and educational support are now part of the requirements for participating in the digital asset economy.

"At KoinX Books, we're focused on simplifying crypto accounting and financial compliance for businesses operating in the digital asset space," said Punit Agarwal, Founder of KoinX. "Our collaboration with NOWPayments is another step toward building a more connected and efficient infrastructure for Web3 businesses globally. As crypto adoption grows across regions like Spain and Europe, businesses need financial systems that are transparent, scalable and audit-ready."

Kate Lifshits, CEO of NOWPayments, framed the initiative as an extension of the company's payment gateway into broader operational territory. "We believe businesses need more than payment tools to succeed with crypto," Lifshits said. "Our ecosystem is evolving to support businesses at multiple stages of their crypto journey – from payment acceptance to operational and compliance readiness. These assets are part of that broader mission."

NOWPayments operates as a global crypto payment gateway supporting 350+ cryptocurrencies and 30+ stablecoins, alongside tools such as invoices, payment widgets, subscriptions, payment buttons, donation tools, point-of-sale solutions, plug-ins and fiat payment options. The company markets zero-fee payouts with settlement speeds of up to 1 second. Businesses can access the free Crypto Tax Checklist and related materials through NOWPayments and KoinX channels.
