Social payment project Metya announced that the company has recently successfully obtained a money services business (MSB) license issued by the U.S. Treasury Department (FinCEN) (registration number: 31000038454401) . Its business types include fund transmission and digital asset exchange.
At the same time, Metya has completed the filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) (CIK No.: 0002083906) .
This progress marks a key step in Metya's global compliance process and lays a solid foundation for international operations.
Holding an MSB license qualifies Metya to conduct digital asset exchange, stablecoin transfers, fund settlement, and cross-border payments in compliance with regulations in the United States and globally, significantly enhancing the platform's legitimacy and transparency in payment settlement and cross-border business expansion. Furthermore, SEC filing, as the highest level of regulatory endorsement in the capital market, has long been considered a core symbol of investor protection and market transparency. Completing this registration not only signifies that Metya's business has entered a higher-standard compliance system but also further demonstrates the maturity and robustness of its compliance governance and risk management practices.
Actively seeking compliance also provides institutional guarantees for Metya's expansion into the European and American markets, and builds a competitive barrier that distinguishes it from most projects.
Under the US regulatory system, MSB and SEC compliance requirements cover anti-money laundering (AML), know your customer (KYC), counter-terrorist financing (CFT), and ongoing information disclosure. The license application and filing process sets extremely high standards for a company's compliance structure, technical security, and internal controls.
"This is not only a qualification upgrade, but also a significant milestone in our globalization strategy," said a Metya spokesperson. "Moving forward, Metya will continue to leverage 'compliance + innovation' as its dual engines to expand its presence in the European and American markets and provide secure, transparent, and efficient digital asset and payment solutions to users worldwide."
Metya's team, comprised of veteran experts in AI, fintech, and blockchain, has long focused on building a compliant ecosystem for SocialFi, PayFi, and AI-driven platforms. Adhering to the principles of security, transparency, and sustainability, the company is committed to promoting the deep integration of digital assets with real-world applications and building an infrastructure-level platform for global users . Against the backdrop of the rapid evolution of the global digital financial industry, Metya's proactive pursuit of compliance is not only a significant milestone in its internationalization strategy, but also a solid foundation for its multi-jurisdictional expansion and attracting international partners.
