For our customers, we provide simple, safe and affordable access to the major crypto and fiat currencies alongside traditional banking services. We are regulated by the FCA (EMI license) and registered under 5MLD making us one of the first, fully regulated, crypto challengers in the UK.
Earlier this year, we announced our acquisition by Robinhood which is subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. Ziglu and Robinhood share a common set of goals, working to reduce the barriers to entry for a new generation of investors, and we’re excited to pursue that mission together. As part of Robinhood, we’ll supercharge Robinhood’s expansion across Europe and bring better access to crypto and its benefits to millions more customers.
