Flip + NBX: A Stronger Future for the Flip App and Flip for Business
Flip has entered a strategic partnership with NBX, one of the Nordics’ leading regulated digital-asset platforms. The Flip App remains fully self-custodial, and our UAE track with USDT continues as normal — while NBX opens a new path for Flip into Europe through their live, MiCA-aligned stablecoin USDM. Nothing is being replaced; this partnership simply expands what’s possible.

We’re excited to share a major step forward for Flip.
Norwegian Block Exchange (NBX), one of the most established and regulated digital-asset platforms in the Nordics, is becoming a strategic partner and acquiring 50% of Flip Company AS.
For our users, this marks the beginning of a stronger, more capable Flip ecosystem – without changing what you already love about the Flip App or Flip for Business.
The Flip App: Same Self-Custody, More Possibilities
The Flip App remains exactly what it is today: a simple, fast, self-custodial wallet where you control your keys and your assets. That part will never change. What does change is what becomes possible around it.
Through this partnership, Flip gains access to NBX’s regulated financial infrastructure, smoother future on/off-ramp options, and native support for USDM, NBX’s already-launched, MiCA-aligned stablecoin built for the European market.
Nothing about the UAE product is being replaced. USDT support continues. The UAE track carries on exactly as planned.
This partnership simply adds more potential, especially in Europe, while the Flip App stays as familiar and simple as ever.
Flip for Business: Stronger Foundations for Global Growth
Flip for Business also continues exactly as planned in the UAE. Companies can still pay international freelancers in USDT, and freelancers still receive their payouts instantly in the Flip App just using their phone number – without needing to understand wallet addresses, networks, or crypto details.
NBX strengthens the foundation under this product as well.
With a regulated partner behind the broader ecosystem, we gain increased credibility, stronger infrastructure, and a clear foundation for future expansion into new markets, including Europe.
Again:
Nothing changes for UAE users or UAE businesses.
We continue with USDT and our existing track – now with even stronger long-term support.
Two Tracks, One Ecosystem
The easiest way to think about this partnership is that Flip now grows along two strong and independent rails:
- The UAE track, using USDT, continues and scales as before.
- A new European track opens, powered by NBX’s regulated platform and USDM, which is already live.
At the center sits the Flip App – still simple, still self-custodial, still fully controlled by you.
The Bottom Line
This partnership doesn’t change what Flip is. It strengthens what Flip can become.
For Flip App users, it means more possibilities built on the same simple wallet you already use.
For businesses, it means a more trusted and scalable platform for paying international freelancers.
And for the Flip ecosystem, it means we can grow faster and more globally – without compromising on our core principle of user-controlled self-custody.
We’re excited for what’s ahead.
More updates soon.
