VASP Permitted Activities

  • Crypto-to-Fiat Exchange: Once you are licensed, your clients will be able to swap one type of cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum to conventional national currencies like dollars or euros.
  • Fiat-to-Crypto Exchange: Your clients will be able to use their conventional national currencies to purchase cryptocurrencies.
  • Crypto-to-Crypto Exchange: With this service, your clients can convert one cryptocurrency into another. For example, they can trade Bitcoin for Ethereum.
  • Virtual Currencies Transfer: This service enables your clients to use virtual currencies as a means of payment or value transfer. You can operate in a closed system, where only assets bought within your platform can be transferred; or in an open system that allows your clients transfer assets acquired elsewhere.
  • Intermediary Services: If your business involves providing platforms for the exchange, trade, or transfer of virtual assets without owning them directly, you’ll fall into this category. As a licensed intermediary, you’ll facilitate financial transactions for your clients, acting as the bridge without getting directly involved in the asset ownership.
  • Custodian Wallet Services: With a licence, you can store your clients’ virtual assets securely in an electronic storage system. You’ll hold the private key while your clients manage their assets with the public key. 

Advantages of VASP

  • Cost-effective: Skip the need for authorised capital deposits. Take advantage of affordable licensing fees and a low minimum share capital requirement.
  • Build Credibility: Operate as a regulated entity to gain trust, attract customers, and secure the interest of investors.
  • Enhance Business Value: Your Polish VASP registration can increase your business value, paving the way for new partnerships or funding opportunities.

Key Polish VASP Requirements
