What Services Can a MiCA-Licensed Provider Offer?

MiCA defines ten crypto-asset services, lettered (a) to (j) in Article 3(1)(16) of Regulation (EU) 2023/1114. Each register entry lists the services the firm may provide; the count shows how many of the 365 listed firms hold each one.

What Does MiCA Authorisation Mean, and What Does It Not Mean?

A MiCA register entry means a national regulator has authorised (or, for banks and some other financial firms, received a notification from) that legal entity for the listed services and states. It is a licence to operate, not a quality rating or a guarantee.

It means:

• The named legal entity may provide the listed crypto-asset services in the EEA states listed in the register.
• The firm falls under MiCA’s EU-wide rules on conduct, custody of client assets and complaints handling, supervised by its home regulator.
• You can verify the exact entity by its LEI in ESMA’s file and in the home regulator’s own register.

It does not mean:

• That every company using the same brand is covered: only the listed legal entity is. Check which entity your account contract names.
• That every product the firm sells is covered: derivatives and CFDs fall under other EU rules, and services not listed in the entry are not covered.
• That your crypto is protected like a bank deposit: MiCA has no deposit-guarantee scheme for crypto-assets, and prices can still fall to zero.
• That the firm is recommended by ecoinomy or by the regulator.

How Do I Check if a Crypto Exchange Is MiCA-Authorised?

Search the legal entity name or LEI in ESMA’s CASP file, then confirm the home regulator, the services and your country. A brand name alone is not enough, because one brand can run several entities.

1. Find the legal entity in the provider’s terms of service or website footer.
2. Search that name in the full table below or in ESMA’s CASPS.csv.
3. Check the services column covers what you want (for example custody and crypto-fiat exchange).
4. Check that your country is in the firm’s list of EEA states.
5. Check ESMA’s list of non-compliant entities for warnings.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many crypto companies are authorised under MiCA?

365 crypto-asset service providers are listed in ESMA’s interim MiCA register as of 7 October 2026. They are supervised from 27 EEA countries, led by Germany (100), France (36) and the Netherlands (28). The count includes banks and other financial firms that notified under Article 60, and excludes 2 withdrawn entries.

Is Binance MiCA licensed?

Binance is not in ESMA’s MiCA register as of 7 October 2026. A provider without a register entry may not offer crypto-asset services to EEA residents under MiCA after the transitional periods ended on 1 July 2026. Check the register again before opening an account, because ESMA updates the file regularly.

Are Coinbase and Kraken MiCA licensed?

Coinbase is in the register through Coinbase Luxembourg S.A., authorised by CSSF (Luxembourg) with an entry date of 20 June 2025, for 7 of the 10 MiCA services across 30 EEA states. Kraken is in the register through Payward Europe Solutions Limited, authorised by CBI (Ireland) with an entry date of 25 June 2025, for 8 of the 10 MiCA services across 30 EEA states.

Is eToro MiCA authorised?

eToro is in the register through eToro (Europe) Ltd, authorised by CySEC (Cyprus) with an entry date of 16 January 2025, for 7 of the 10 MiCA services across 30 EEA states. eToro’s CFDs are regulated under separate EU investment rules, not under MiCA.

Which banks offer crypto services under MiCA?

88 firms in the register as of 7 October 2026 have “bank” or a local equivalent in their legal name, including KBC Bank NV, Commerzbank Aktiengesellschaft, Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft, DZ BANK AG Deutsche Zentral-Genossenschaftsbank, N26 Bank SE, Trade Republic Bank GmbH and Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria S.A. 66 of them are German. Banks can provide crypto services after notifying their regulator under MiCA Article 60, and the full list by country is on this page.

How do I check if a crypto exchange is MiCA authorised?

Find the legal entity name in the provider’s terms, then search it in ESMA’s CASPS.csv file or the full table on this page. Confirm the home regulator, that the services cover what you need, and that your country is among the listed EEA states. A brand name alone is not enough, because one brand can operate several entities.

Does a MiCA licence mean my crypto is safe?

No. A MiCA licence means the firm is supervised and must follow EU rules on custody of client assets, conduct and complaints. It does not create a deposit-guarantee scheme for crypto-assets, does not cover products outside the listed services, and does not protect you from price falls.

Can a MiCA-licensed exchange operate in every EU country?

Only in the EEA states listed for it in the register. A firm authorised in one state can passport its services to others, and 99 of the 365 listed firms list all 30 EEA states as of 7 October 2026. Others list only their home state or a few countries, so check your country in the firm’s row.

How Is This MiCA Tracker Built?

This page is generated from ESMA’s own data file and rebuilt each week when ESMA publishes a new version. We do not add, remove or rate firms.

How we researched this: we downloaded ESMA’s interim MiCA register CASP file (data date 7 October 2026, from the file’s HTTP Last-Modified header) on 8 October 2026 and parsed all 370 rows. Rows for the same LEI were merged (earliest entry date, union of services and states); rows with a withdrawal date are listed separately. Service letters were mapped to the ten MiCA services using the wording in the file itself and Regulation (EU) 2023/1114; field meanings follow ESMA’s field description. 5 entries carry an entry date later than the data date; they are shown exactly as ESMA published them. Brand presence is a name match against legal and commercial names; absence means no matching entity in the file. Background: ESMA MiCA page and MiCA transitional periods by country.
