Koin has appointed fintech veteran Craig Libson to the role of chief strategy officer. Lisbon will be charged with shaping and driving Koin’s strategic initiatives, broadening the company’s reach in key markets, and spearheading efforts to enhance the entire digital-payments landscape.

“Craig’s leadership style is truly innovative and his experience and knowledge will be invaluable as we move into our next phase of growth,” said Koin President Gary Larkin in a statement. “He’s shown an innate ability to anticipate and adapt to market evolutions, which will play an important part in helping us expand our influence in the digital payments space.”

In 2015, Libson founded Cash2Go, a Latin American cashless-gaming fintech solution that integrated multi-account card capabilities and synchronized player onboarding to optimize the user experience. In 2021, he founded Flexia Payments, which extended cashless innovations in the United States and Canada.

“Craig’s expertise and forward-thinking approach will help us continue to lead the evolution of cashless payment solutions within the gaming industry,” Larkin said. “His vision is exactly what we need to drive our own mission forward and deliver unparalleled value to our partners and customers alike.”
