Bringin Launches Euro Accounts for Bitcoin Businesses
Bringin has launched an invite-only beta for euro business accounts, allowing companies to hold, accept, and pay in Bitcoin and stablecoins, while also facilitating SEPA payments. This development builds on Bringin's consumer platform, which has processed over €15 million, according to a press release shared with Bitcoin Magazine. The new service aims to address challenges faced by European businesses, such as bank account restrictions and blocked transfers when dealing with Bitcoin or other virtual assets.
The platform enables companies to manage Bitcoin treasuries, accept payments in Bitcoin, Lightning, or stablecoins, and pay suppliers and employees in Bitcoin. A dedicated virtual IBAN ensures seamless integration with SEPA payments, with plans to expand global payment options. Security is a priority, with keys stored in hardware security modules and funds controlled only by designated company owners.
Bringin also plans to introduce APIs and MCP servers to support AI agents, following a 2025 demonstration of agent payments over the Lightning Network. The service is currently in pilot with 15 businesses, including Lightning payment tools, mining-rig sellers, and Bitcoin conferences. Built on the MiCA-authorized infrastructure of Lightspark Payments Europe AS, Bringin for Business is available to companies across 30 European countries.
Prashanth Chandrashekar, founder and CEO of Bringin, emphasized the potential of Bitcoin and Lightning for everyday commerce, stating, “Bitcoin is the first money native to the internet, and Lightning makes it fast enough for everyday commerce. We proved it with consumers first. Now companies can use Bringin to get paid, hold value and move money globally, with accounts designed around self-custody and a seamless payment experience.”
