Crypto & Digital
We advise digital-asset businesses on fiat on and off-ramps, VASP structuring, and crypto-friendly banking.
Crypto businesses fail at the fiat boundary. The on-ramp works until the bank sees digital assets in the flow and closes the account, the off-ramp stalls because no institution will settle, and the structure regulators want is not the one you set up. The technology is rarely the problem; the banking and the registration are.
We advise exchanges, VASPs, custodians, and token issuers on fiat rails that settle, a structure regulators recognise, and banking that does not close the moment crypto appears in your transactions.
Where Crypto & Digital starts and ends
Place fiat on and off-ramp banking with institutions that knowingly accept digital-asset flow.
Advise on VASP registration and structuring in jurisdictions whose framework your banking will respect.
Set up settlement banking so customer fiat moves without tripping the bank that holds it.
Build the AML and travel-rule framework that crypto-aware banks and regulators expect.
Add redundancy across institutions so a policy change at one bank does not break your ramps.
Four steps, one senior team
- 01
Structure and registration review.
We confirm whether your VASP structure and registration match the banking you want, and fix the order if they do not.
- 02
Compliance framework.
We prepare the AML, KYC, and travel-rule documentation crypto-aware institutions require before they will open an account.
- 03
Fiat rail placement.
We place on-ramp, off-ramp, and settlement banking with institutions that accept digital-asset flow, named under NDA after intake.
- 04
Redundancy and live.
We add a backup institution so a single policy change does not sever your fiat ramps, then keep the relationships maintained.
The documents that move a file forward
A complete file is the difference between a fast approval and a stalled one. This is what we will ask for at intake. If you are missing a policy, we draft it rather than send you away.
- Token, exchange, or custody business description and flow of funds
- Existing VASP registration or licensing, if held
- Beneficial ownership and group structure chart
- AML, KYC, and travel-rule policies, or we draft them
- Wallet and on-chain analytics or transaction-monitoring setup
- Source of funds for treasury and operating capital
One anonymized case
Crypto exchange, EU-facing. Its banking partner closed the account the week it detected on-chain settlement in the flow.
Placed with an EMI built for VASP-aware clients, live in 19 days with a backup route documented.
If your case looks different, that is exactly what the check is for.
Frequently asked
My bank closed us when it saw crypto. Can you fix that?
Yes. That is one of the most common reasons crypto operators reach us. We place banking with institutions that knowingly accept digital-asset flow, so the relationship is built on disclosure rather than something the bank discovers later and closes over.
Do I need a VASP registration?
In most jurisdictions that touch fiat, yes, and your banking will often depend on it. We advise on whether your activity requires registration and in which jurisdiction it should sit so your banking recognises it.
Can you set up both on-ramp and off-ramp fiat?
Yes. We advise on both directions plus settlement banking, and we add redundancy so a policy change at one institution does not take all of your fiat rails at once.
What does it cost?
Engagements start from 1,500 EUR plus the institution’s own onboarding fees. The exact scope is quoted in writing after the free check, before you commit to anything.
