NuvoLinQ Surpasses 500,000 Monthly POS Connections
In a significant achievement for the payments industry, NuvoLinQ, a leader in secure wireless IoT connectivity for payment solutions, has announced that it now manages over 500,000 active point-of-sale (POS) connections each month. This milestone, reported on July 9, 2026, highlights sustained growth of more than 50% over the past two years, driven by increasing demand for reliable, always-on payment infrastructures.
As cash usage continues to decline and the adoption of contactless EMV and Android-based POS systems rises, financial institutions and payment service providers are moving away from conventional store Wi-Fi systems and single-carrier SIMs. Instead, they are embracing managed, multi-carrier cellular connectivity solutions that prioritize uptime, security, and operational oversight.
The Shift Towards Reliable Connectivity
NuvoLinQ provides connectivity solutions over private, static-IP APNs enhanced by direct interconnections with Tier 1 carriers. This infrastructure is complemented by its LinQView management platform and advanced multi-profile eSIM technology, co-developed with Kigen. The results are remarkable: payment terminals, self-service kiosks, and ATMs that remain operational during outages, peak demand seasons, and network disruptions.
Key Numbers That Speak Volumes
- - 500,000+ monthly POS connections under management
- - 50%+ growth over the past 24 months
- - Interconnections with Tier 1 carriers spanning three continents
- - Multi-network eSIM redundancy employed on all supported devices
Industry Recognition and Validation
Vincent Korstanje, CEO of Kigen, emphasized that the scale achieved by NuvoLinQ signals a broader industry trend. He remarked, "As trust in payments becomes increasingly intertwined with trust in connectivity, it's vital that financial entities recognize the importance of secure connections for the future of commerce. With our certified eSIM technology and NuvoLinQ's reliable IoT connectivity platform, stakeholders can confidently deploy constant POS connectivity across North America and Europe."
Maurizio Tersigni, the CEO of NuvoLinQ, also noted the relevance of this achievement, stating, "Reaching half a million POS connections monthly is not just a milestone for NuvoLinQ; it represents an essential shift in the payments landscape. Businesses and the service providers that support them understand that being 'mostly online' is no longer acceptable. Our mission is to deliver secure and reliable cellular connectivity that underpins each transaction."
Customer Success: Maverick Payments
Maverick Payments, a California-based full-service payments provider that supports ISOs, ISVs, and banks, has partnered with NuvoLinQ to standardize POS connectivity for its merchant network. Jonathan Aguilar, AVP of Client Services at Maverick Payments, shared insights into the partnership, stating, "Connectivity used to be an unpredictable variable—a factor that often caused disruptions at crucial moments for merchants. With NuvoLinQ's multi-network eSIMs and the LinQView platform, we are able to deploy solutions faster, troubleshoot remotely, and ensure our merchants can process transactions, even during outages that previously impacted their revenues."
Looking Forward
NuvoLinQ is poised for continued growth, expanding its eSIM capabilities in collaboration with more Tier 1 carrier partners. The company is also intensifying its integration efforts with payment processors and managed service platforms, and it plans to launch new features in LinQView that support fleet-level diagnostics and zero-touch provisioning in alignment with the GSMA SGP.32 standards.
