Ripple obtained full MiCA CASP authorization, allowing regulated crypto payments, custody, and digital asset services across the EEA. The license complements Ripple's Luxembourg EMI authoriza
Ripple has secured full Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) authorization from Luxembourg's Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier, allowing regulated crypto services across the 30-country European Economic Area. The approval follows preliminary clearance granted in June 2026 and comes after the European Union's MiCA transition period ended on July 1, confirming Ripple's full compliance with the new regulatory framework.
According to Ripple, the CASP license allows the company to offer regulated crypto payment services, custody, and related digital asset products throughout the European Economic Area under a single authorization.
The approval complements Ripple's existing Electronic Money Institution license in Luxembourg. Together, the two licenses support electronic money services alongside crypto-asset operations across the region.
Cassie Craddock, Ripple's Managing Director for the United Kingdom and Europe, said the authorization positions the company for the post-transition MiCA framework. She added that financial institutions across Europe continue seeking regulated digital asset providers.
The authorization follows the end of the European Union's MiCA transition period on July 1. Under the framework, crypto firms must obtain authorization or discontinue regulated services within the bloc.
According to the European Securities and Markets Authority, licensed companies can generally passport regulated crypto services throughout the European Economic Area. Meanwhile, national regulators remain responsible for supervising firms within their jurisdictions.
Not every crypto company completed the process before the deadline. Reports stated that some firms are still pursuing authorization through other European member states.
Ripple stated that it now holds more than 75 regulatory licenses worldwide following the CASP approval. The company said the new authorization places it among a limited number of digital asset firms with full MiCA authorization.
According to Ripple, its blockchain payments network has processed more than $100 billion across over 60 markets. The company added that its regulated payments infrastructure is now available to financial institutions, businesses, and corporate clients throughout the European Economic Area.
Matthew Osborne, Ripple's policy lead for the United Kingdom and Europe, previously described Luxembourg's regulatory framework as an important part of the company's European operations.
