Ripple today announced it has received authorization of its Crypto Asset Service Provider (CASP) license from Luxembourg’s Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier (CSSF).
This follows the preliminary approval announced in June 2026 and confirms Ripple as fully MiCA-compliant, with its crypto payments solution now available to financial institutions, corporations, and companies in all 30 European Economic Area nations.
The CASP license, when combined with Ripple’s existing EU Electronic Money Institution (EMI) licence, will allow European banks, fintechs, and corporations to access Ripple’s entire cryptoasset and stablecoin payments infrastructure, enabling them to collect, exchange, and pay out through a single integration for the first time.
Ripple UK CEO Cassie Craddock celebrated the milestone in an X post. “We’re fully licensed in Europe and excited to keep building on the incredible momentum of recent months. Let’s go,” Craddock wrote.
The executive noted a demand among the institutions Ripple works with across Europe to build their digital asset services alongside regulated partners, and the company is now licensed and ready to meet that demand.
