ASTANA, Kazakhstan, Sept. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ —** The global payment technology
company CodeCoin made its debut at Astana Finance Days 2026. The founder, Benny,
announced that ****CodeCoin ****had obtained the AFSA ****stablecoin**** issuance
license. During the event, CodeCoin signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with
Al****tyn**** Bank, and representatives from institutions such as Mastercard, Citibank,
and China International Capital Corporation witnessed the signing.**

The digital currency issuance license marks an important step in CodeCoin’s global
compliance strategy. Benny said** the company has placed compliance and real payment
needs at the center of its approach from the outset.** CodeCoin aims to combine 
regulatory authorization, established financial infrastructure and payment technology
to address persistent challenges in cross-border payments, including cost, timeliness,
transparency and availability. The company plans to advance relevant operations 
within Kazakhstan’s regulatory framework while incorporating risk management, fund
security and transaction traceability into its products and operations.

In his address, Benny said businesses operating across borders can still face long
settlement cycles, multiple intermediaries, restricted service hours and limited
visibility into the status of funds.** CodeCoin’s product focus is to move money
more safely, efficiently and predictably within a compliant framework, using clearer
payment routes and transaction records to support international trade, supplier 
payments, corporate settlement and multi-currency treasury needs.**

CodeCoin positions itself as a provider of multi-currency payment infrastructure
for businesses and individuals worldwide.** Its services target corporate, merchant
and cross-border** **remittance cases, with the goal of simplifying cross-border
settlement, reducing foreign-exchange and intermediary friction, and ****provid****
ing**** more flexible payment paths for markets with insufficient coverage by traditional
finance. **The company plans to use regulatory authorization and financial-institution
partnerships as the basis for payment products that enterprises can use in daily
business.

**Security and risk management are also central to CodeCoin’s public positioning.**
The company says its information security management system achieved ISO/IEC 27001
certification in April 2026. It also incorporates fund segregation, auditable payment
processes, traceable transaction records, compliance controls and anti-money-laundering
frameworks into its operations. CodeCoin’s approach is that speed, transparency 
and regulatory alignment must develop together to support sustainable global payment
services.

**CodeCoin is also exploring payment requirements for an AI-agent economy.** Benny
said that as AI agents become able to execute tasks, call services and complete 
commercial transactions, payment permissions, digital identity, accountability and
transaction records will become essential infrastructure. AI agents should operate
within company-defined spending limits, approved counterparties, time windows and
authorization rules, with every payment linked to a clear identity and audit trail."
The real issue isn’t trusting the software; it’s about who takes the blame. The 
company is always responsible, never the code," he said.

Hong Kong is CodeCoin’s operating base and headquarters. The company is developing
compliance and business networks across markets through banking partners, corporate
clients, merchants and payment corridors. **Systems previously built and operated
by members of its management team reached more than 70 countries and served over
one billion users.** Those figures describe the team’s prior experience rather than
CodeCoin’s current direct market coverage. The company has also outlined a CodeCoin
Card offering for its ecosystem with support for Visa, JCB and UnionPay networks.

**The Altyn Bank**** (Subsidiary Bank of China CITIC Bank Corporation Limited)****
MOU is an important step in deepening CodeCoin’s local financial cooperation in 
Kazakhstan. **The cooperation will draw on Altyn Bank (Subsidiary Bank of China 
CITIC Bank Corporation Limited)’s local banking network as the parties explore opportunities
in fintech, cross-border payments, digital finance and related applications. Representatives
from Mastercard, Citi, CICC and other AFD participants witnessed the signing, reflecting
industry attention to regional finance and cross-border payment connectivity.

Kazakhstan occupies an important position connecting China, Central Asia and European
markets. **CodeCoin has already developed cooperation in the country. Its official
news center reports that in June 2026 the company signed a strategic cooperation
MOU with the Alatau City Authority State Fund** to support cross-border digital 
payment infrastructure linking the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and
Central Asia. The digital currency issuance license and latest banking cooperation
strengthen the company’s pivotal role in the international strategy of Kazakhstan.

Going forward, CodeCoin plans to build around compliance and cross-border payments
while developing products and partnerships in corporate payments, international 
trade settlement, AI-agent payments and multi-currency fund movement.** By coordinating
banking systems, regulatory frameworks and payment technologies, the company aims
to bring new payment services into everyday enterprise operations and use Kazakhstan
as an important hub connecting Central Asian and Eurasian markets.**
