<a href="https://ramp.network/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank">Ramp Network</a>, the financial technology company building payment rails connecting crypto to the global financial system, today announced a groundbreaking solution that enables non-custodial wallets to comply with the UK Financial Conduct Authority's (FCA) regulations and participate in the country's thriving crypto market.
The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) has established a world-leading and rigorous framework for crypto promotions, requiring firms to comply with strict but valuable customer protection rules. This is a challenge for Web3 businesses and non-custodial wallets, which are ineligible for direct FCA authorization. Effectively, there was no way for a non-custodial wallet to provide any other features, like staking, on-ramping or swapping. It was even referred to by some in the industry as a “de-facto ban on wallets in the UK”. The model means that industry partners can continue to offer services within the UK, in a modified, but compliant manner.
Ramp's innovative solution bridges this gap, empowering non-custodial wallets to navigate the FCA's regulations and access the UK market compliantly. Here's how it works:
<ul>
 <li>Partnership with a Section 21 Approver: Ramp collaborates with Archax, a regulated third party to handle compliance checks for promotions targeting UK users.</li>
 <li>Streamlined Process for Partners: Non-custodial wallets can leverage Ramp's pre-approved compliance infrastructure to ensure their UK-targeted promotions meet all the requirements of these FCA regulations.</li>
 <li>Early Traction: This solution is particularly beneficial for non-custodial wallets like Metamask and Trust Wallet, which can use this model to access the UK market.</li>
</ul>
Benefits for Web3 products:&nbsp;
<ul>
 <li>Simplified Compliance: Avoid the complexities of navigating the FCA's regulations alone.</li>
 <li>Faster Market Entry: Quickly and compliantly reach the UK market with Ramp's solution.</li>
 <li>Focus on Core Business: Focus on developing your wallet and user experience.</li>
</ul>
Ramp's innovative model paves the way for non-custodial wallets to participate in the growing UK crypto market while ensuring regulatory compliance and prioritising customer protection.
“This model is entirely new, and demonstrates Ramp’s ambitious, forward-thinking, and compliance-led approach to the ever-changing and challenging face of crypto regulations,” said Steven Eisenhauer, Chief Risk &amp; Compliance Officer at Ramp Network.
