UAE REGULATION

Know your regulator before you build.

VARA — DubaiRegulates virtual asset activity in Dubai, on the mainland and in free zones except the DIFC. Licences are issued per activity, so an exchange that also holds client assets or brokers trades may need Exchange, Custody and Broker-Dealer licences.

ADGM FSRA — Abu DhabiRegulates virtual asset trading platforms as Multilateral Trading Facilities, with requirements for market surveillance, settlement, transaction records and transparency.

DFSA — DIFCSupervises crypto token activity inside the Dubai International Financial Centre under its own rulebook.

AML, CFT and the Travel RuleEvery UAE virtual asset service provider must run KYC, sanctions screening and transaction monitoring, and exchange originator and beneficiary data for qualifying transfers.

WK 1–2

Technical documentation

Architecture, custody, security and compliance documents for your licence application.

WK 2–4

Branding and customization

Your brand, user flows, AED payment rails and product mix.

WK 3–8

Integrations

KYC, analytics, Travel Rule, banking partners and market makers.

WK 4–10

Security testing

Penetration test, wallet review, fixes and retest before real funds move.

FAQ

Launching an exchange in the UAE.

No. Licences are issued to your company by the regulator, and you need UAE legal counsel for the application. We provide the technical side: platform features, architecture and security documentation, and answers to the regulator’s technical questions.

They include the controls UAE regulators look for, such as KYC and AML integrations, Travel Rule handling, segregated custody, maker-checker approvals, audit logs and reporting. Because you get the source code, we can add anything your licence conditions require.

It depends on your business model, investors and the activities you plan to offer. VARA covers Dubai outside the DIFC, ADGM regulates Abu Dhabi’s financial free zone, and the DFSA covers the DIFC. Your counsel should advise; we will adapt the platform to whichever you choose.

Yes, through integrations with UAE banks and payment providers. Which partners you can use depends on your licence and banking relationships.

Yes. We can deploy on a UAE cloud region or in your own data centre. You own the infrastructure and the source code.

White-label platforms start from $5,000 plus $100 per month (TradexPro Premium) or from $25,000 (TradiumPro). Custom builds get a fixed quote after a discovery sprint. Licensing, liquidity and compliance tools are separate costs, often larger than the software.

We work with UAE founders remotely. Our engineering team in Bangladesh is two hours ahead of Dubai, so we share most of your working day.
