Welcome to the leading EU-based licensed cryptocurrency exchange! We are a self-service platform for buying, selling, exchanging, and storing cryptocurrencies, plus more.

Self-service simply means that all transactions are executed by you and of your own volition through our web or mobile app, with no middleman whatsoever!

Since our inception, our primary goal has been to build a cryptocurrency exchange that caters to everyone thrilled by the endless possibilities of the cryptocurrency world - from newcomers to oldtimers, we welcome one and all.

Our ambition to offer everyone the possibility of engaging in the cryptocurrency community was realized in early 2018, when we officially launched our platform in the summer of that year.

Kriptomat serves customers across all EEA countries in over 20 languages and our user-oriented mobile app is available for Android and iOS devices.

What makes us a leading cryptocurrency exchange is our uncompromising approach towards security and transparency, which is why we proudly hold an operating a license issued by the Financial Intelligence Unit in Estonia for:

Financial services, providing a virtual currency service, (Licence number FVT000310 – LINK).

The company FintechX OÜ (Kriptomat) was established in Estonia, which is one of the most progressive regulators when it comes to technology, pioneering regulating digital currencies by introducing licenses for cryptocurrency exchanges and cryptocurrency wallets. These licenses fall under the authority of the Financial Intelligence Unit.

The following is an overview of all that our license encompasses:

Estonian Cryptocurrency Exchanges are defined in Estonian law as Providers of Alternative Means of Payment, licensed as an Estonian Financial Institution by holding a Financial Activity License from the Estonian Financial Intelligence Unit (FIU), which is the Anti Money Laundering (AML) authority in Estonia with the ability to grant, revoke and supervise financial activity licenses. AML and KYC requirements that the service providers are subject to are set forth in the Estonian Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing Prevention Act, as well as any other legal guidelines given by the Estonian Minister of Finance.
