Bitget Gains New Zealand Financial Services Registration

New Zealand’s Financial Service Providers Register, or FSPR, is a public record of entities offering financial services in the country. Registration identifies a provider and its listed activities, but does not necessarily amount to comprehensive licensing or supervision by the Financial Markets Authority. For Seychelles-based crypto exchange Bitget, the entry strengthens its compliance footprint and supports a push beyond digital-asset trading into foreign exchange, payments and other traditional financial services.

Bitget said on July 23, 2026, that it had registered as a financial service provider in New Zealand. The listed categories cover foreign-currency exchange, domestic and cross-border money transfers, client-asset custody, portfolio and money management, and execution of financial-product or foreign-exchange transactions for clients. Bitget also joined the New Zealand Insurance and Financial Services Ombudsman dispute-resolution scheme, providing eligible customers an external complaints channel. The company disclosed no investment or transaction value tied to the registration.
