INWISH Expands Into European Markets: Launching Operations in UK, Germany, and France This Spring

INWISH Expands Into European Markets
We are thrilled to announce a significant milestone in INWISH's global growth strategy. Starting April 2026, our gift card trading platform will be officially available to traders in the United Kingdom, Germany, and France, marking our first major expansion into European markets.
Years of Preparation
This expansion represents the culmination of eighteen months of dedicated preparation. Our teams have worked tirelessly to ensure that European traders will experience the same reliable, secure, and efficient platform that has made INWISH a trusted name in gift card trading.
Entering European markets required navigating complex regulatory landscapes across multiple jurisdictions. We are proud to have achieved full compliance with the Financial Conduct Authority requirements in the United Kingdom, BaFin regulations in Germany, and Autorité des Marchés Financiers standards in France.
What European Traders Can Expect
European users will have access to the complete INWISH trading experience, enhanced with region-specific features designed for local markets.
Localized Currency Support
All three markets will support native currency transactions. British traders can operate entirely in pounds sterling. German and French users will transact in euros with competitive exchange rates. Cross-currency transactions between European markets will be available at launch.
Regional Gift Card Inventory
We have established partnerships with major European retailers to ensure robust gift card inventory from launch day. European traders will find familiar brands including Tesco, Sainsbury's, MediaMarkt, Saturn, Carrefour, FNAC, and dozens of regional favorites alongside international brands already popular on our platform.
Payment Integration
Our European platform integrates with region-preferred payment methods. SEPA bank transfers will be supported across all three markets. UK users can connect through Faster Payments and BACS systems. Additional integrations with popular European payment providers will roll out throughout the launch quarter.
Customer Support
We have established dedicated support teams for each market, operating in local languages during business hours. English, German, and French support will be available, with additional language support planned based on user demand.
Market-Specific Launch Details
United Kingdom Launch
The UK platform goes live on April 1, 2026. British traders can begin creating accounts on March 15, 2026. Early registrants will receive preferential fee rates during our promotional launch period. We have partnered with a major UK banking institution to ensure secure, regulated fund handling.

Looking Ahead
The European expansion represents just the beginning of our international growth ambitions. We are actively evaluating additional markets for future expansion, with particular focus on the Netherlands, Spain, and Italy as potential next phases.
Our commitment to each market extends beyond simply providing platform access. We aim to become genuine participants in local gift card trading communities, understanding regional preferences and adapting our services accordingly.
