Triple-A enables in-store stablecoin payments for Singapore luxury bags resale platform LuxLexicon
Triple-A reports that it is enabling LuxLexicon, a Singapore-based luxury handbag resale and consignment platform under Carousell Group, to introduce stablecoin payments into its in-store shopping experience. The service will be available at LuxLexicon’s Palais Renaissance store in Singapore and will apply to selected luxury handbag purchases, targeting digitally native customers.
Eric Barbier, Founder and CEO at Triple-A, says: “Luxury retail is global by nature. By enabling stablecoin payments at LuxLexicon, we’re making it easier for international customers to shop and helping retailers tap into a new high value, digitally native audience.”
Kevin Simtan, Senior Manager, Business Strategy and Operations at LuxLexicon, says: “We are always looking for ways to enhance the luxury resale experience by improving accessibility. Introducing stablecoin payments into our store is part of our commitment to exploring diverse customer preferences while maintaining the premium experience our customers expect.”
2026 RTIH Innovation Awards
Payments will be a key focus area at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards.
The awards are now open for entries and celebrate global retail technology innovation in a fast moving omnichannel world.
Our winners will be revealed at the 2026 RTIH Innovation Awards Ceremony, taking place at The HAC in Central London on Wednesday, 4th November.
Check out our 2025 winners here.
Our 2025 hall of fame entrants were revealed during a sold out event which took place at The HAC on 16th October and consisted of a drinks reception, three course meal, and awards ceremony presided over by award winning comedian, actress and writer Tiff Stevenson.
In his welcome speech, Scott Thompson, Founder and Editor, RTIH, said: “This is the awards’ fifth year as a physical event. We started off with just 30 people at the South Place Hotel not far from here, then moved to London Bridge Hotel, then The Barbican, and last year RIBA’s HQ in the West End.”
“But I’m conscious of the fact that, to quote the legend that is Taylor Swift, You’re only as hot as your last hit, baby. So, this year we’ve moved to our biggest venue yet, and also pulled in our largest number of entries to date and broken attendance records.”
He added: “This year’s submissions have without doubt been our best yet. To quote one of the judges: The examples of innovative developments across both traditional and digital retail spaces were truly remarkable.”
Congratulations to our winners, and a big thank you to our sponsors, judging panel, the legend that is Tiff Stevenson, and all those who attended our 2025 gathering.
