Crypto.com has secured full approval from the Central Bank of Bahrain to provide payment service provider (PSP) services. This approval was granted to its subsidiary, FORIS GFS BH B.S.C. CLOSED, registered in Bahrain. This marks another regulatory achievement for Crypto.com in the region.
The PSP licence enables Crypto.com to expand its services, offering e-money and fiat-based payment solutions. The company plans to introduce its prepaid cards in the region as part of this expansion.
Bahrain is recognized as a centre for digital asset regulation within the Gulf Cooperation Council. It was among the first in the region to issue crypto-asset licences. The Bahrain Economic Development Board plays an active role in supporting investment, working closely with companies to offer strategic advisory services as part of its efforts to attract investments.
Crypto.com continues to grow its ecosystem globally, with over 100 million users. This announcement adds to its regulatory approvals, following its recent Virtual Asset Service Provider Licence from Dubai’s Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority. In April 2024, the company also launched the Crypto.com Exchange for institutional investors.
Crypto.com holds licences in the markets including Singapore, France, Australia, Ireland, Malta, the United Kingdom, the United States, Canada, and South Korea.
