The story

Crypto.com started in 2016 (originally as Monaco) under Kris Marszalek and grew through bold marketing — from F1 sponsorship to the Crypto.com Arena — to over 100 million users. In Europe it has been MiCA-authorised via the MFSA in Malta since early 2025. Its strength is the ecosystem: app, exchange, Earn and the well-known cashback Visa card.

What they stand for

  • Visa card with cashback across Europe
  • Hundreds of coins, app + Exchange
  • MiCA/CASP via MFSA (Malta)

Products & services

App (instant buy)Exchange (orderbook)Visa card + cashbackEarnDCA / recurring buys

Security & trust

  • ISO/IEC 27001 · PCI DSS
  • Cold storage
  • MiCA — MFSA (Malta)
  • App + Exchange, one account
Authorisation verified in the ESMA register

Where it falls short

  • A purchase in the app costs 0.80% and by card that runs up to 4%; well above a flat 0.15%.
  • The ecosystem is broad but fragmented: app, Exchange, Earn and the card each carry their own terms.
