Flexa announced on July 8, 2026, its expansion across 37 Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) countries and territories, enabling merchants to accept digital asset payments with euro settlement. The expansion allows businesses to accept digital asset payments without managing custody, volatility, chargebacks, or new checkout infrastructure. SEPA provides a common payment framework that streamlines cashless euro payments across the European Union and several non-EU countries.
Flexa Expands Digital Asset Payment Infrastructure Across SEPA Region
The platform gives businesses regulated infrastructure for digital asset payments, payouts, and settlement across the region. Flexa stated that every transfer is fully fraud-resistant, guaranteed at the moment of authorization, and never subject to unexpected reversals.
The announcement extends technology already used by businesses in the United States, Canada, and El Salvador. Flexa noted its network was built to move value across borders and between digital assets and fiat currencies. In Europe, the expansion extends those capabilities to broader payment flows.
Merchants can accept digital asset payments online, in person, and in apps without custody or exchange-rate exposure. Payments settle immediately in the merchant's preferred currency. Flexa said businesses can connect through existing payment processing systems rather than replace checkout hardware or rebuild back-office operations.
Flexa Establishes European Headquarters in Warsaw, Poland
Flexa's European operations will be anchored by Flexa Polska in Warsaw. Formed last year, the operation was created ahead of the European Union's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation, known as MiCA. Through SEPA, merchants and institutions can settle directly in euros without handling custody, exchange, or reconciliation.
Trevor Filter, cofounder and CEO of Flexa, stated that businesses across Europe have made it clear they want money movement that simply works—no custody, no volatility, no surprises. He cited Poland's investment in technology, regulatory support, and startup development as reasons for selecting Warsaw as the company's European headquarters.
President and Chief Legal Officer Upneet Teji said the establishment of Flexa Polska reflects the company's long-term commitment to this new market and the work being done to support customers across the region. Teji emphasized that global expansion requires regulatory, compliance, and operational foundations alongside payment technology.
Flexa Platform Supports Cross-Border Transfers and Remittances
The expansion opens new channels for institutions and developers seeking cross-border transfers, remittances, and business disbursements. Flexa said organizations can move digital assets and stablecoins between the United States and Europe, and across European borders, with settlement in seconds through the same network behind merchant transactions.
The rollout establishes Flexa's platform across SEPA while laying the groundwork for broader European payment services. The company said the platform lays the groundwork for merchant payments, payouts, remittances, and digital asset conversion, although it did not provide a timeline. Customer adoption and future deployments will determine how those capabilities expand.
