Morphic, Netherlands
Morphic Financial Group, a London-based holding company of European crypto payments provider Ari10, has announced that the Netherlands financial regulator has granted Morphic’s subsidiary, WEB3 Holdings with a MiCA licence.

The licence allows Morphic Financial Group to operate across the European Union under the EU’s new Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework.

MiCA took effect in December 2024. It is the EU’s regulatory regime for digital assets, with rules to protect consumers, enforce transparency and prevent money launderers who try to use cryptos. 

WEB3 Holdings serves more than 940,000 users across 17 countries. 

“Being granted a MiCA licence is not just an endorsement of our compliance architecture; it is a statement that we are ready to operate at the highest European standards. For us, MiCA is not a barrier; it is a passport to scale,” Mateusz Kara, CEO of Morphic Financial Group, said.
