Currency.com has joined forces with OpenPayd to expand its foreign exchange and multi-currency payment services in Europe and beyond. The partnership is designed to bolster Currency.com’s infrastructure, enabling quicker deposits, withdrawals, and better liquidity management via OpenPayd’s network.

This collaboration will provide Currency.com access to over 30 currencies and additional payment networks such as SEPA, SEPA Instant, and the UK’s Faster Payments. It aims to optimize settlement processes with liquidity providers and enhance transaction speed for clients engaged in both fiat and digital asset markets.

Enhancing Payment Accessibility Across Europe

Currency.com officials stated that this partnership is part of their broader expansion strategy. Over the next few months, they plan to introduce additional currency corridors to better serve a global client base across more than 100 countries. This move reflects Currency.com’s reliance on Banking-as-a-Service models and its preference for leveraging OpenPayd’s regulated infrastructure instead of building internal payment systems.

OpenPayd has significant experience in facilitating cross-border payments, processing over EUR 130 billion annually with regulatory licenses covering the UK, Europe, and North America. Its platform connects various payment and banking networks, serving sectors like digital banking, crypto exchanges, and online marketplaces. Earlier collaborations, such as their partnership with Circle to integrate USDC functionality, underscore OpenPayd’s commitment to bridging traditional finance with blockchain-enabled payments.

The integration of SEPA Instant is expected to reduce transaction delays and improve liquidity management—key challenges in the digital asset space. This move signifies an industry trend toward greater interoperability between conventional and digital payment systems.
