Paysafe’s Skrill and Neteller Expand Regulated Crypto Services to Germany
Paysafe (NYSE: PSFE), a leading global payments platform, today announced that it has secured a CryptoAsset Service Provider (CASP) licence under the EU’s Markets in CryptoAssets Regulation (MiCA) from the Central Bank of Ireland.
The licence marks a major milestone for Paysafe’s digital wallets, Skrill and Neteller, enabling the company to passport its crypto services across the entire European Economic Area (EEA) under a single regulatory approval. Crucially, this includes Germany, where Paysafe can now fully offer crypto services for the first time.
Germany is Paysafe’s largest digital wallet market in Europe and one of the continent’s most sophisticated and compliance‑driven financial ecosystems. Entering the market under MiCA allows Paysafe to combine its long‑established digital wallet offering with a fully regulated crypto proposition aligned to German consumer expectations around security, transparency and regulatory oversight.
MiCA represents the most significant regulatory shift in the European crypto landscape to date, introducing uniform standards for consumer protection, governance, operational resilience and safeguarding of client assets. Only a limited number of firms have successfully secured a CASP licence under the new regime, positioning Paysafe among a select group of early, fully authorised market participants.
With Skrill and Neteller already operating under e‑money licences, the addition of MiCA authorisation further strengthens Paysafe’s position as one of the few providers in Europe regulated across both fiat and crypto, offering customers a secure, compliant and multi‑asset digital wallet experience.
“This licence allows Skrill and Neteller users in Germany to buy and sell crypto in a fully regulated way,” said Bob Legters, Chief Product Officer at Paysafe. “Entering Germany for the first time with a fully regulated crypto proposition is particularly significant, given the size of the market and its strong focus on compliance. This milestone reinforces our commitment to enabling the safe, secure and responsible use of digital assets across Europe.”
