Confirmo, a stablecoin-focused payment platform catering to businesses worldwide, has informed that its Irish entity, Confirmo Limited, has earned authorization as a Payment Institution under the Payment Services Regulations 2018 by the Central Bank of Ireland.
Adding to this, Confirmo Limited also holds MiCA authorisation as a Crypto-Asset Service Provider, granted by the Central Bank of Ireland in December 2025. With these dual regulatory approvals, the company is poised to become one of Europe’s leading stablecoin payment providers.
The European Economic Area (EEA) passporting rules enable Confirmo to offer crypto and payment services across all 27 EU member states from a single regulated base. This arrangement provides global companies and financial institutions with a compliant partner for handling cross-border stablecoin payments at scale.
MiCA transitional period and market dynamics
The current timing is crucial, as MiCA’s grandfathering phase will end on 1 July 2026. After this date, any crypto payment providers lacking full regulatory authorization must stop their European operations. Confirmo highlights that this will create a clear distinction between fully licensed and unlicensed operators, with the deadline looming closer.
Confirmo’s platform supports sending, receiving, and settling payments in major stablecoins across prominent blockchain networks. The company, established more than 12 years ago, has developed its services to cater specifically to enterprise-scale stablecoin payment needs.
Regarding this milestone, Anna Štrébl, CEO of Confirmo Group, stated that the dual authorization signifies a new phase in over a decade of building crypto payment infrastructure. It positions the company as a fully regulated European platform ahead of the upcoming deadline.
Derek Corcoran, CEO of Confirmo Limited in Ireland, underscored that this authorization provides businesses throughout Europe with access to stablecoin payment infrastructure underpinning regulatory certainty and future-proofed compliance.
