Bitpanda, a provider of crypto investment infrastructure, has partnered with Onda Finance, an international digital payment and investment platform headquartered in Brazil, to provide the technology behind its new crypto offering for wealth and corporate clients. The partnership will allow Onda to offer digital asset services to its clients by integrating Bitpanda’s secure, API-based infrastructure, which will include trading, custody, and liquidity.
Latin America is one of the fastest-growing fintech regions globally, and crypto demand is rising rapidly. Despite this, access to simple and secure investing remains limited due to fragmented infrastructure and an uncertain regulatory environment. Through this partnership, Onda Finance will use Bitpanda’s crypto trading infrastructure to offer simple and secure access to cryptoassets for its wealth and corporate clients.
The solution will be deployed under a Bring Your Own Licence (BYOL) model to ensure that Onda is operating in full alignment with current regulatory expectations. BTS will provide the underlying trading, custody, and feature infrastructure, while liquidity provision will be handled via Bitpanda.
Demand for digital assets in Latin America is growing fast, says Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad, CEO of Bitpanda. He noted that Bitpanda is working with regulators and local institutions to provide services.
Nildson Alves, executive co-founder and CEO of Onda Finance, says the partnership will bring crypto services that are secure and innovative.
With this launch, Bitpanda continues to expand its global B2B footprint. Bitpanda Technology Solutions already powers crypto infrastructure for global institutions, including Deutsche Bank, Societe Generale, Raiffeisenlandesbank, RAKBANK, and N26 – serving more than 30 million users. The Onda partnership and Bitpanda’s association with Abcripto mark Bitpanda’s first steps into Latin America.
