Security — All payment data is encrypted to PCI DSS standards. Cryptocurrency transactions undergo AML and KYC processing in compliance with AML/CTF regulations.

Highlights

Pros

  • All cryptocurrency payments are processed with PCI DSS encryption, AML/KYC compliance, and AML/CTF regulatory alignment via Crystal blockchain partnership.
  • Merchants can sell cryptocurrency directly in-store alongside goods and services, creating an additional revenue stream without needing to buy initial crypto stock.
  • Proven scale with 15 million transactions processed monthly, $3.8 billion annual card turnover, and 200,000+ terminals deployed globally across Eastern Europe, EU, Southeast Asia, and North America.
  • All-in-one POS terminal that accepts bank cards, cash, and cryptocurrencies on a single device with built-in receipt printer, 2D scanner, and NFC contactless capability.
  • Cycle Card powered by Tangem cold-storage technology enables secure contactless crypto payments by simply tapping at the POS terminal.
  • Cycle Online e-commerce gateway locks in exchange rates at the time of transaction, eliminating cryptocurrency volatility risk for merchants.

Cons

  • POS terminals run on older Android versions (5.1 Lollipop and 6.0 Marshmallow) which are no longer receiving security patches from Google.
  • Geographic presence is heavily concentrated in Eastern Europe and parts of Southeast Asia, with limited availability and support infrastructure in North America and other major markets.
  • The base Cycle POS 5 model lacks EMV chip and magnetic stripe card readers, limiting its fiat card acceptance to NFC/contactless only.
  • Supports only a limited selection of cryptocurrencies compared to competitors that offer 50–350+ coins for payment acceptance.
  • The Cycle Dashboard cloud management tool is listed as "coming soon," meaning an integrated 360-degree business analytics view is not yet available.
