Alternative to Revolut or Wise for P2P Crypto Trades

Debanked by Revolut or Wise for P2P Crypto Trades? Here’s What the Pros Use Instead

You’ve probably been here:

You’re running clean, documented P2P trades. Maybe OTC on the side. Nothing shady. Nothing unregulated.

And then—boom—your Wise or Revolut account gets frozen without warning.

Funds stuck. No appeals. Just a vague message about “terms of service” or “suspicious activity.”

Sound familiar?

If you’re a crypto trader or fund manager using retail platforms, it’s not a question of if—it’s when.

Why You’re Getting Flagged (Even If You’re 100% Legit)

Let’s be clear: Wise and Revolut are great—until you start using them for actual volume.

The second you:

  • Receive frequent deposits tied to crypto trades
  • Interact with exchanges, OTC desks, or wallets
  • Transfer between multiple counterparties in different jurisdictions

You’re flagged.

Not because you’ve done anything wrong.

But because you’ve outgrown what these platforms are built for: freelancers, expats, and eCom drop-shippers.

They are not crypto banks. They are not financial infrastructure for digital asset businesses.

And they never claimed to be.

The Illusion of Retail Convenience

Retail fintechs give the illusion of speed and simplicity—until they pull the rug.

You’re not in control.

You don’t get a relationship manager.

You don’t get real onboarding.

You definitely don’t get context when your account is terminated mid-trade.

The problem isn’t Wise. The problem is trying to run a multi-six or seven-figure crypto business on rails built for Airbnb hosts.

What Institutional Traders Do Differently

You don’t see serious OTC desks using Revolut.

What they use is infrastructure:

  • Corporate structures aligned with financial activity
  • EMIs and banks that understand crypto exposure
  • Vetted compliance workflows that don’t rely on hope

You need a setup designed for trading—not for buying coffee in Madrid.

Here’s What That Looks Like

We’ve helped high-volume P2P traders and small crypto funds build proper financial setups. That usually includes:

  • A licensed entity (UAE, Switzerland, BVI, or otherwise) with the right risk profile
  • A relationship with a crypto-friendly EMI or PSP that won’t panic at the word “Tether”
  • An intro to a real OTC desk—not just for trades, but for fast liquidity and off-ramps
  • End-to-end compliance mapping, so every trade has clean documentation if a regulator ever asks

It’s not about hiding.

It’s about playing at the right level—where your banking and payment partners already know the rules of the game.

If You’ve Been Debanked—You’re Not the Problem. Your Setup Is.

Revolut didn’t betray you.

You just graduated from the sandbox.

It’s time to stop duct-taping a professional operation onto a consumer fintech stack.

If you’re doing serious volume—P2P, OTC, or fund-driven—there’s a better way.

We build proper institutional infrastructure for crypto professionals.

No more guessing. No more shutdowns. Just clean, scalable systems you can rely on.
