What is a crypto brokerage?
A crypto brokerage converts cryptoassets and stablecoins to fiat and back for its clients as a counterparty, instead of matching buyers and sellers on an order book. XEROF is a Swiss crypto brokerage and settlement counterparty: FE Swiss Financial AG, a Swiss-regulated Virtual Asset Service Provider and member of VQF (No. 100954), with no order book.
- Brokerage, not an exchange: XEROF has no order book. Clients execute each conversion themselves in XEROF Online at the live rate from tier 1 liquidity, passed through at cost.
- Fee on its own line: the XEROF brokerage fee follows the published tiers by monthly volume and is shown separately from the rate on every conversion.
- Assets and currencies: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC), against USD, EUR, GBP and CHF.
- Fiat rails: Fedwire, RTP, ACH or SWIFT for USD; SEPA or SWIFT for EUR; Faster Payments, CHAPS or SWIFT for GBP; SWIFT for CHF. Fiat is paid to the client's own account, for example a dedicated IBAN in the company's own name.
- Segregated custody: one on-chain wallet per client, in the client's name, never pooled, with disaster-recovery cover.
- Paying third parties: funded only with USDT or USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20), in 60 corridors across 59 countries and 26 currencies, every beneficiary screened. BTC, ETH or SOL are converted to USDT or USDC first.
- Regulation: a financial intermediary under the Swiss Anti-Money Laundering Act, member of VQF (No. 100954), a self-regulatory organisation recognised by FINMA. Not a bank, takes no deposits. Serving digital-asset clients since 2021 from Zug, Switzerland.
