So, this means that Aximetria services are fully compliant with Swiss AML legislation. Now a startup can provide financial intermediary services and will focus on users not only from Europe, but also from Africa, Asia and Latin America, where traditional banking services are not available to many people.

Aximetria allows you to open electronic accounts for making both fiat and cryptocurrency transfers. The startup intends to serve the needs of not only retail customers, but also businesses.

It is noteworthy that Aximetria also allows you to make purchases using cryptocurrency through traditional bank cards.

For citizens of the Russian Federation, the service will be available only after the development of an appropriate regulatory framework that will allow cryptocurrency to be calculated, however, as already known, at the moment lawmakers have entered an “ideological deadlock” as part of working on the draft law “On digital financial assets”.

Earlier, Fintech-start-up Robinhood, an operator of a mobile application for trading stocks and cryptocurrency, closed a round of financing for Series E, which resulted in it raising $ 323 million. The company's capitalization rose to $ 7.6 billion.
