The multicurrency wallet offers a comprehensive suite of features designed for simplicity and flexibility. Users can store, manage, and exchange multiple currencies, making international travel and work more convenient than ever. Cross-border money transfers come with competitive exchange rates and rapid processing times, ensuring fast and cost-effective solutions for personal and professional needs. Additionally, users can access both local prepaid cards issued by Mastercard and/or Visa for everyday spending and global cards accepted worldwide, streamlining how they manage expenses wherever they go.
The launch of the multicurrency wallet coincides with AstroPay’s significant European growth. The company has secured an Electronic Money Institution (EMI) license in Denmark, expanding operations in the European Union. Starting with Denmark, Spain, and Portugal, AstroPay is targeting markets that are home to dynamic digital nomad hubs and vibrant remote work communities. By the end of 2025, AstroPay plans to extend its services to additional EU countries, including Germany, France, Italy, and Poland, broadening its reach to support an even wider range of users.
AstroPay’s expansion into Europe is supported by its unwavering commitment to regulatory excellence. The Danish EMI license ensures full compliance with EU regulations, reflecting AstroPay’s dedication to transparency, security, and operational integrity, giving users peace of mind knowing their financial activities are conducted within a trusted framework.
Sacal added, “Regulatory compliance is not just a checkbox for AstroPay—it’s a core principle that guides our growth strategy. Meeting local and international requirements underlines our commitment to users, partners, and stakeholders alike. By adhering to the highest standards, we’re ensuring that our solutions remain secure, reliable, and adaptable as the financial landscape evolves.”
