WEXID holds a VARA In-Principle Approval for Exchange Services issued 22 September 2026. An IPA is not a full VASP licence and the firm is not authorised to commence regulated virtual-asset activities until final licensing requirements are completed.
What this record means
A concise reading of the structured evidence, written for practical decision-making.
No live regulated customer account entity is established by the IPA. The approval is a pre-licensing stage only. · Not applicable at IPA stage; no custody or client-money role should be inferred before a full VASP licence and customer documentation are available. · Planned VA spot-trading exchange service. VARA's IPA record permits service design for Retail, Qualified and Institutional Investors but does not authorise live operations.
Do not describe WEXID as fully licensed or operational. VARA states IPA holders are prohibited from initiating regulated virtual-asset activities or servicing clients until a full VASP licence is granted.
