Flipster Secures VARA License for Regulated Crypto Services in UAE

Flipster, a global 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, issued under Flipster FZE, enables the company to officially launch regulated virtual asset services in the UAE and onboard customers in the region. This is part of Flipster's transition from regulatory readiness and in-principle approval to full operational capability under VARA's framework.

Flipster offers access to real-world asset perpetuals in supported jurisdictions, giving users trading exposure to both digital and traditional asset classes. The initial offering will focus on spot trading, forming the foundation of Flipster's regulated product suite.

The company believes that regulation is essential to building long-term trust, and VARA sets a strong benchmark for balancing innovation with investor protection.
