Binance Cuts Ties with Credit Card Processing Firm Checkout.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Forbes reports that the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume was informed of the company's intention to terminate the contract due to regulatory concerns. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This could be a turning point for Binance's regulatory matters, given that Checkout.com\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/g>\r\n \r\n \r\n \r\n <\/clipPath>\r\n <\/defs><\/svg><\/span><\/a> has served millions of customers in the United Kingdom for crypto payment processing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The report indicates that on August 9 and 11, the credit card processing company sent two letters to the cryptocurrency exchange. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Guillaume Pousaz, the company's chief executive officer, cited issues with Binance's anti-money laundering<\/a>, sanctions, and compliance control as the reason for the service's discontinuation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The letters stating that the contract would expire on August 17, 2023, detailed regulatory issues in multiple jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a result, Binance is reportedly contemplating legal action against the company over the reason for the contract termination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, CZ, the exchange's chief executive officer, stated that the platform would like to navigate carefully within the legal frameworks of various jurisdictions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to data from recent months, the exchange had effectively lost transactions worth approximately $400 million in the context of a grand plan to expand the crypto market to new audiences.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
