BCB Group Product Highlights in 2024

2024 was a big year for both the crypto industry and BCB Group. Here’s a summary of the main product enhancements we made in 2024.

🇺🇲 USD Domestic Accounts and BLINC

We understand the critical role USD plays in business operations and the global financial ecosystem. Early in 2024, we launched USD domestic payment accounts and integrated USD into the BLINC network. This addition extends the power of instant, 24/7 payments and settlements with no limits from GBP, EUR, SGD, CHF, JPY, AUD and NZD to USD!

💻 Enabling Self Service

We know how precious your time is. This year we also made a series of changes to the client portal, including making viewing and downloading your statements simpler and quicker, as well as enabling self service for managing your team’s permissions within the client portal.

🪙 Expanded our Token offering

Expanding our token offering means more opportunity for you to capitalise on a wider range of trading opportunities. In 2024, we added 7 new tokens to our trading offering (BCH, DAI, PYUSD, EURC, XRP, SOL and DOGE). This now expands our token offering to 15, with more to come this year.

€ EMI Licence unlocks Instant SEPA

Want access to instant SEPA and no limits on holding balances to deepen your presence or start expanding in Europe? Continuing our regulatory-first approach, the granting of our EMI licence from the ACPR, enabled us to offer on-shore EURO accounts.

🇪🇺 EURO vIBANs

Managing client payments shouldn’t be a headache. That’s why we’ve expanded our GBP virtual account offering to include a EUR equivalent, allowing you to create labelled sub-accounts for your clients, each with its own unique IBAN. These sub-accounts roll up into your main business account, helping to reduce payment rejection rates and streamline manual reconciliation tasks.

🇦🇺 AUD Accounts

Say G’day to our AUD payment account. With access to local BECs rails (and instant payments through NPP on the horizon), this expands the total number of currencies we offer payment accounts to 23, giving you access to local rails with greater speed and better pricing to reach new markets.

↔️ Laser Focused on Settlement Times

In 2024, we focussed on enhancing our infrastructure to strengthen settlement capabilities. This included onboarding new trading partners, expanding into more markets, and integrating improved payment rails. We can now offer physical settlements in up to 30 minutes. In 2025, our goal is to elevate these capabilities even further.

💵 Crypto Stablecoin Accounts

Tired of managing separate crypto and fiat accounts? 2024 saw the launch of our crypto accounts, with the initial offering covering stablecoins (USDC and USDT). Crypto accounts now sit alongside fiat accounts in our client portal, giving you full visibility and control of both crypto and fiat assets in one place.

💡Flex Collect

Last but not least, Flex Collect is the latest BCB product release. It enables you to receive and send over 20+ fiat and digital currencies without the hassle of currency conversions. We handle the conversion automatically allowing you to store your funds in one or more base currencies.
