- Regulatory License Acquisition: Nuvei has secured a Crypto-Asset Service Provider (CASP) license under the EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation (MiCAR), enabling the company to provide compliant crypto-asset services across the EU, significantly simplifying the expansion process for merchants in multiple markets.
- Service Integration Enhancement: This license allows Nuvei to offer services including cryptocurrency storage, transfers, and exchanges, integrated into its global payments infrastructure, thereby enhancing customers' ability to move value seamlessly between crypto and traditional payment rails.
- Market Access Facilitation: With the MiCAR license, Nuvei can operate across EU member states without barriers, assisting merchants and platforms in efficiently deploying crypto-enabled payment and settlement capabilities, thus strengthening its competitive position in the market.
- Customer Service Optimization: Nuvei has also obtained a Payment Institution license, and with both authorizations, retail users will enjoy accessible crypto services, while business clients will benefit from efficient settlement solutions and transparent blockchain-based fund movement, significantly improving the efficiency of payment workflows.
