GCEX Chooses OpenPayd to Supercharge Expansion
By Dominic Sow · 15 October 2025
GC Exchange FZE and GC Exchange A/S, both part of GCEX Group, a fast growing regulated digital prime broker, have selected OpenPayd, a leading provider of financial infrastructure, to enhance its fiat banking rails.
Through this partnership, GCEX will leverage OpenPayd’s regulated financial services infrastructure to deliver faster, more efficient payment services to its institutional and professional clients including brokers, hedge funds and asset managers. GCEX clients onboarded in Europe now have seamless access to EUR and GBP transactions, with USD access available to their clients onboarded in the UAE. These changes strengthen GCEX’s fiat on/off-ramp capabilities in these regions.
OpenPayd has become a trusted partner for businesses where fast, compliant settlement is critical, and as a result of the partnership, GCEX clients can benefit from:
- Greater payment efficiency in USD, EUR and GBP.
- Simplified settlement processes.
- Secure, compliant banking rails, designed to meet the highest standards of transparency and regulatory alignment.
These enhanced capabilities enable faster cross-border payments and improved liquidity management, removing friction from fiat settlement for institutional clients.
Lars Holst, CEO and Founder of GCEX commented: “This partnership with OpenPayd is an important step in strengthening our fiat capabilities for institutional and professional clients. At GCEX, we are committed to delivering secure, transparent and efficient access to deep liquidity and regulated custody solutions. By integrating OpenPayd’s real-time SEPA payment rails, GC Exchange A/S clients in Europe gain improved access to EUR and GBP settlements, while our GC Exchange FZE clients benefit from faster USD, EUR or GBP transactions. Together, these enhancements elevate the trading experience for our clients and ensure the highest standards of compliance across jurisdictions.”
Lux Thiagarajah, Chief Commercial Officer at OpenPayd said: “We’re proud to have been selected by GCEX as they expand their global operations. As digital asset markets evolve, institutional clients need financial infrastructure that can keep pace with their demands. Our focus is to help businesses move and manage money globally and, through this partnership, GCEX can ensure their clients benefit from fast and flexible access to global banking networks.” Companies in this story: OpenPayd, GCEX
