Bridge Gets Two Luxembourg Licenses for Euro Stablecoin EU Push

Bridge received two regulatory licenses in Luxembourg that let it offer euro stablecoin services across the European Union. The fintech company obtained a Crypto Asset Service Provider registration under MiCA and an Electronic Money Institution license.

The MiCA registration covers crypto asset services like custody and exchange. The EMI license allows Bridge to issue electronic money, including its euro stablecoin. Together, the two authorizations give Bridge a regulatory passport to operate in all 27 EU member states. That removes a key barrier for the company's euro stablecoin infrastructure, which targets payment and settlement use cases.

Luxembourg has become a hub for crypto firms seeking MiCA compliance. The country's financial regulator, the CSSF, has approved several CASP registrations since the regulation took effect. Bridge's dual license structure lets it offer both crypto-native and fiat-based services under one roof.

The company has been building out its euro stablecoin platform, aiming to compete with established dollar-pegged stablecoins and traditional payment rails. The Luxembourg licenses give it a regulated foundation to scale across Europe. Bridge now holds both a MiCA CASP and an EMI license in Luxembourg.
