Wirex, a global leader in Web3 payments and digital finance, has announced the integration of tGBP – a fully backed, on-chain representation of the British Pound Sterling – into its platform. This move enables over six million users across 130+ countries to access and transact with a regulated, fiat-pegged digital pound issued by a UK-based, FCA-registered cryptoasset firm.

"We're excited to partner with Wirex to make tGBP easily accessible to millions of users worldwide," said Benoit Marzouk, CEO of Tokenised GBP. "This integration not only expands the global utility of tGBP, but also accelerates our mission to bring regulated, transparent and practical stablecoin infrastructure to businesses and consumers."

tGBP, available via TokenisedGBP.com, is backed 1:1 by GBP reserves held by authorised custodians and managed under rigorous operational and regulatory oversight. Issued by a firm registered with the UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA), tGBP merges the trust and compliance of traditional finance with the programmability and accessibility of Web3.

"This partnership with Tokenised GBP reinforces our vision to build regulated, real-world-ready infrastructure for digital money," said Daniel Rowlands, General Manager at Wirex Pay. "By integrating tGBP across both our custodial and non-custodial platforms, we are creating powerful new rails for compliant, programmable GBP on-chain."
