Introducing Coinhouse and the project

A pioneer in the crypto-asset sector since 2014, Coinhouse has rapidly established itself as a key player by combining expertise in the crypto-currency market and mastery of the requirements of traditional finance. In 2020, the company became the first to be registered as a Digital Asset Service Provider (PSAN) with the French Financial Markets Authority, thus asserting its commitment to a regulated and secure framework. Based in Paris, Coinhouse plays a key role in the French crypto-asset ecosystem and is aiming to democratize the adoption of cryptocurrencies. The objective is to remove the obstacles and apprehensions associated with crypto-assets in order to allow everyone, individuals and professionals alike, to fully engage in this new technological era.

The company makes a point of offering a secure, transparent and regulated environment. Thanks to its vision and innovative solutions, Coinhouse is resolutely positioning itself towards the future, consolidating its leading position on the French market while exploring new international opportunities.

Challenges for Coinhouse

One of the main challenges for Coinhouse and its customers is the lack of fluidity between crypto-assets and the traditional banking system. Simplifying the integration of cryptocurrencies while ensuring security and regulatory compliance is essential.

Many investors face restrictions that sometimes block transactions involving digital assets, complicating account funding and conversion to fiat currency.  These obstacles are even more pronounced for businesses and professional investors, who face similar difficulties when it comes to banking compatibility and managing crypto payments.

Faced with this situation, Coinhouse needed an innovative solution that complied with regulatory requirements to streamline exchanges and open up access to digital assets to a wider audience in a secure framework.

Solution deployed

In collaboration with Treezor, Coinhouse now offers its French users, individuals and businesses, a payment account in euros. Operated by Treezor, this account considerably simplifies transactions between fiat currency and crypto-assets.

1. Instant exchanges between euros and crypto-assets

Thanks to Treezor’s solution, Coinhouse allows its end users to buy and sell crypto-assets in real time, a key advantage in a market where speed of execution is crucial. Each customer benefits from a dedicated French IBAN, guaranteeing total fluidity of transactions. This system eliminates the delays and complications usually associated with transfers between banks and exchange platforms, allowing the value of crypto-assets to be immediately cashed out in euros or reinvested without friction.

2. Security and compliance: Treezor’s expertise

Treezor brings its expertise in compliance and payment security to this project. In addition to its filtering tools, Treezor has strengthened its technical platform with an advanced transaction monitoring solution. This tool improves anomaly detection and fraud prevention in real time and guarantees optimal control over exchanges between fiat currency and crypto-assets.

3. Accelerated implementation leveraging Treezor payment services

As an agent of Treezor, Coinhouse benefits from Treezor’s license to offer a French IBAN and integrate essential payment services without having to obtain its own license. This strategic collaboration not only allows rapid deployment of the service, but also optimal compliance with regulatory requirements.
According to Nicolas Louvet, CEO of Coinhouse, Coinhouse’s ambition is to remove the barriers and fears that separate the general public from crypto-assets and the value they bring to the digital future. Cooperation with a leading player like Treezor was an obvious choice to guarantee a service that is fluid, secure and compliant.
