# CoinMENA > Buy, sell, send and receive digital assets CoinMENA is a licensed cryptocurrency exchange serving the MENA region. It lets retail and institutional users trade digital assets and move funds in their local currencies. CoinMENA is a licensed digital asset exchange serving retail and institutional users across the Middle East and North Africa. It offers a platform to buy, sell, send, and receive a range of cryptocurrencies, with deposits and withdrawals available in local currencies through linked bank accounts. The service targets both individual investors seeking access to digital assets and businesses in need of crypto trading and settlement tools. The exchange operates under licenses covering crypto asset services and broker-dealer virtual asset activities, providing spot and limit order trading, multi-currency bank account linking, and continuous customer support. This regulatory positioning addresses a common barrier in the region, where local fiat access and compliant crypto trading are not always available together. Users can fund accounts by bank transfer or card and withdraw directly back to a linked bank account. Beyond retail trading, CoinMENA provides an over-the-counter desk for larger transactions, offering dedicated account management and preferential pricing, along with mobile apps for everyday access. Its corporate offering extends these services to businesses seeking treasury and settlement solutions involving digital assets. The platform is used by individual investors, institutional clients, and companies across the region seeking regulated access to digital asset markets. - Type: Company - Sector: Finance - Status: Active - Founded: 2019-11-22 - Profile: https://thegrid.id/profiles/coinmena ## Products - [CoinMENA Exchange](https://thegrid.id/profiles/coinmena): CoinMENA Exchange is a centralised trading platform for buying, selling, and holding a range of digital assets, available through a web application and mobile apps.
