London-based fintech firm Revolut has launched cryptocurrency trading services in New Zealand. Starting today, customers in the country can buy, sell, and hold over 100 different digital currencies on the Revolut app.

The launch provides New Zealanders with a new avenue to gain exposure to digital currencies as crypto adoption is growing worldwide. Revolut first enabled cryptocurrency transactions back in 2017 and has since rolled out trading to its users across the European Economic Area (EEA), Australia, Singapore, Switzerland, Japan, and the United States.

According to Revolut’s announcement, the decision to launch full crypto trading in New Zealand is part of its strategy to expand into new verticals and simplify cryptocurrencies for mainstream users.
