Trading 212 MiCA status in detail

Yes, Trading 212 has a current MiCA register entry supervised by CySEC in Cyprus, dated September 2025. Cyprus’s CySEC authorised the zero-commission broker’s Cypriot entity as a MiCA CASP in September 2025. The authorisation puts its crypto offering under EU supervision alongside its MiFID investment business.

Practical effect: The named EEA entity is supervised for the services in its current MiCA register entry, and conduct and disclosure rules apply. Safeguarding and custody liability depend on the service and the entity that holds the assets or funds. You can escalate complaints to CySEC.

Common questions

Who regulates Trading 212 in the EU?

Trading 212 has a current MiCA register entry in Cyprus, dated September 2025. CySEC supervises the entry. The registered entity is Trading 212 Markets Ltd. The ESMA register is the source of truth for the current entity and service scope.

Can Trading 212 serve customers across the whole EEA?

ESMA’s register lists all 29 other EEA states as host states for the services in Trading 212’s home entry. The list records notifications to host regulators and is not evidence that every service is live in each country, so check the contracting entity for your country.

Does MiCA protect my funds on Trading 212?

MiCA applies conduct and disclosure rules to the registered EEA entity for the recorded service. Safeguarding duties depend on which service and entity hold client crypto-assets or funds. Article 75 covers custody liability for attributable loss and caps that liability. MiCA does not provide a deposit guarantee, and crypto-assets can lose value.

How do I verify Trading 212’s licence myself?

Search the official ESMA CASP register for Trading 212 Markets Ltd. National regulators update the records each week. Use the official register as the authoritative source.
