Frequently asked questions.
While your digital assets are in our custody, we provide protection through robust systems, processes and technology. We take a multi-layered approach, including separate record-keeping (we never mix different types of funds), storing exactly what you deposit without converting it, and using advanced security measures like multi-step verification, data encryption and ongoing risk monitoring. Learn more about BVNK security features.
BVNK provides stablecoin payments infrastructure, unifying banks and blockchains in a single platform, to accelerate global money movement. We cater for businesses looking to process at least €500,000 in payments a month, with a minimum of 6 months of trading/operating history.
We segregate (hold separately) customer e-money funds at all times from BVNK’s company funds or the company funds of our banking partners. This means that your e-money funds are protected in the unlikely event that BVNK or one of our e-money partners, becomes insolvent.
BVNK operates as an Electronic Money Institution in the UK via System Pay Services Limited (company number 11621763, authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority – Ref: 901057). We operate as an EMI in Europe via System Pay Services Malta (company number C66961 (authorised and regulated by the Malta Financial Services Authority).
Our multi-layered approach to AML and KYC helps you mitigate financial crime risk. We deploy a combination of best-in-class tools and our proprietary machine learning models for effective crime detection and prevention. Our Financial Intelligence team is experienced in leading investigations, and our case management portal makes it easy for you to track and manage held payments.
You can track and manage your held payments and respond to Requests For Information (RFIs) from BVNK in our easy-to-use case management portal. There’s no need for lengthy email exchanges and we guarantee a response within 24 hours, though our average response time is 10 minutes.
