Since the beginning of 2022, Coinhouse has been opening up to the world of crypto payments by addressing brands’ and merchants’ needs in Web3 (an internet-based on decentralization and ownership).
As a crypto-assets service provider registered in France and Luxembourg, Coinhouse has supported more than 20 major French and international brands by enabling them to securely acquire and hold lands in Metaverses.
It has also helped to accept crypto payments by converting immediately cryptos received for the sale of NFT or products into euros, without having to manage the complexity of a crypto Wallet or the crypto volatility.

- Develop its crypto asset management activity beyond existing products,
- Make payment in crypto accessible and intuitive for both individuals and businesses,
- Accelerate its international expansion and look for M&A opportunities,
- Facilitate the development of Web3 by simplifying transactions and the management of crypto-assets.
“I am proud of our team and the progress in 5 years. We have gone from 5 employees to more than 100, from a crypto exchange activity, a subsidiary of Ledger, to an independent scale-up that has raised a total of €50 million with renowned French and international investors, including a European bank.
Traditional players in the financial world and VCs are beginning to grasp the enormous potential of the crypto market, despite its cycles and upheavals linked to its innovation potential and its recent development.
The future of financial services, payment, and Web3 will go through the development of cryptos and therefore inevitably through that of players such as Coinhouse who make them accessible and usable by everyone,” explains Nicolas Louvet, co-founder and CEO of Coinhouse.
