As principal members of Visa and MasterCard and a SWIFT partner, Xapo is the first fully licenced private bank to offer total transactability in USD and Bitcoin, through a single, secure, simple and user-centric app. The bank and its members are strictly protected by Gibraltar regulatory laws, under the authority of the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission.

Led by the leading minds in traditional banking, fintech and future-forward crypto adoption, Xapo is a best in class banking platform from end to end. Xapo's advisory panel includes former Citibank CEO and chairman John Reed and former US Secretary of Treasury Larry Summers (and included the late Visa founder Dee Hocks until his passing last year), and its C-Suite is comprised of global leaders in fintech and banking from companies such as PayPal, Libra, Standard Chartered, Credit Suisse and more. CEO Seamus Rocca was previously Group Head of Liquidity and Funding Risk at Standard Chartered Bank in London, and founder Wences Casares is a world renowned serial entrepreneur and Bitcoin pioneer who previously served on the board of PayPal.

Xapo's distributed workforce across 42 countries brings unrivalled diversity of problem-solving talent to the world of private and decentralised banking. A tech company first and foremost, 65% of the bank's staff are world class engineers who are developing its innovative technology platform.

Rivalling Swiss banking, Xapo is for world citizens who need real financial security and freedom. Its members apply to join the bank and are strictly vetted to protect the integrity of the bank. Similar to other licensed banks in Europe and the UK, deposits at Xapo Bank are guaranteed for up to USD 100 000.00 under the Gibraltar Deposit Guarantee Scheme.
