Flipster Secures VARA License for Regulated Crypto Services in UAE

Flipster, a leading cryptocurrency trading platform, has secured a full operational Exchange license from Dubai's Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA), marking a significant step in its global expansion strategy. The license enables Flipster to launch regulated virtual asset services in the UAE and onboard customers in the region.

This milestone comes after Flipster first announced its entry into the Middle East in May 2025 with the appointment of Benjamin Grolimund as General Manager of Flipster FZE. With this full operational license, Flipster moves from market entry to delivering regulated services in one of the world's most advanced digital asset ecosystems.

The VARA framework allows Flipster to provide a secure and transparent trading environment, supported by robust standards for custody, governance, and compliance. This reinforces Flipster's commitment to safeguarding users while providing reliable access to digital assets.
