Nodu - a Latvian-licensed B2B stablecoin payments infrastructure
Nodu (Nodu Digital SIA) is a stablecoin payments infrastructure company that received two licences from Latvijas Banka on 8 July 2026 - a MiCA crypto-asset service provider (CASP) licence and a payment institution licence. According to the central bank, it is the tenth company with a crypto-asset licence in Latvia and the third Latvian company with a dual CASP + payment institution licence, after Paybis Europe and Trek Technologies (Backpack EU). Nodu is not a retail exchange - it supplies fiat-stablecoin payments infrastructure to banks, PSPs and fintechs.
Licensing
The CASP licence covers the transfer of crypto-assets on behalf of clients and the exchange of crypto-assets for funds; the payment institution licence covers money remittance. The EU passport allows services across the EEA after cross-border notification.
The company
Nodu Digital SIA was registered on 11 July 2025 in Riga (reg. No. 40203662782); 100% is held by Nodu Global SIA. Paid-in capital is EUR 145,800. The founders - Alex Novozhenov (CEO), Vladislav Nikolayev (CTO) and Daria Dubinina - previously built the Latvian fintech platform Crassula. In December 2025 Nodu raised a EUR 1.25M pre-seed led by Digital Space Ventures (an early Revolut and PaySend investor). The group also includes Nodu Canada Inc. (FINTRAC MSB registration in Canada).
Services
Payin (fiat to USDC/USDT), payout (stablecoin to fiat in 40+ currencies across 60+ countries) and cross-border transfers with a stablecoin as the intermediary. Blockchains: Ethereum, Base, Tron; fiat: USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CAD, AUD, CHF. Per company figures, most payouts settle in ~60 seconds with no FX markup - these claims are not yet independently verified.
Who it is for
Banks, PSPs, MTOs, fintechs, neobanks, crypto exchanges and B2B platforms that need regulated stablecoin on/off-ramps and cross-border payouts. Not available to retail users - see Paybis, Coinmotion or Kraken instead.
