Company mission
Ziglu's mission is to offer a fast and simple way to buy and sell crypto, with no hidden fees.
Our take
Ziglu provides a digital platform that enables customers to exchange cryptocurrency – Bitcoin, Ether, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash – with zero hidden fees or transaction charges, and to monitor their balances in real-time. They believe in traditional and digital currency as equals, in one elegantly and simply designed account that brings together the best of challenger banks and crypto exchanges in a single app.
The company is one of the few crypto concerns that has managed to register with the U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority - a key requirement for digital asset firms looking to operate in the country.
In 2022, Robinhood announced plans to acquire Ziglu; together, they will work to leverage the best of both companies, exploring new ways to innovate and break down barriers for customers across the UK and Europe.
