Descriptiontext

Coinfloor is described in firmographic inputs as an established group of cryptocurrency exchanges targeting institutional or sophisticated investors and traders, headquartered in London, founded in 2013, with 11-50 employees. The detailed operational data supplied predominantly describes a Bitcoin-only retail and SMB platform offering buy, sell, send, receive, and storage of Bitcoin via web and native iOS/Android applications, with cold storage and multi-signature wallet infrastructure for custody. The product portfolio extends beyond core trading into the Bolt Card (a contactless Bitcoin debit card on the Lightning Network, also functioning as a gift card), Send Globally (UK-to-emerging-markets remittance to the Philippines, Nigeria, Kenya, and others), personal and business eMoney accounts in GBP and EUR distributed under FCA-authorized Mercury Foreign Exchange Limited, Recurring Bitcoin Buys for automated purchases, and Bitcoin Stacking Accounts for organized savings. The platform reports 350,000+ users across 40+ countries and a 4.2/5 App Store rating over 308 ratings.

The business model is structured around three revenue streams: (1) Bitcoin transaction-related third-party service fees (the platform states it does not charge direct transaction fees); (2) Bolt Card hardware sales; and (3) eMoney account services distributed on behalf of Mercury FX. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer and product-led via self-serve website and mobile app registration, with PR-driven earned media (BBC, Forbes, Bloomberg, Independent, City AM) as a top-of-funnel channel. The company holds regulatory registrations with the Isle of Man Financial Services Authority under the Designated Business Act 2015 and as a MoneyLender under the Moneylenders Act 1991, and operates eMoney distribution through Mercury FX (FRN: 900858) under the Electronic Money Regulations 2011.

Leadership comprises Obi Nwosu as CEO and co-founder, Adam Knight as chairman, and Araba Eshun as chief compliance officer. Early-stage funding totals approximately $492,333 across two Passion Capital rounds in 2013 and 2014, with no subsequent disclosed funding rounds — indicating a capital-efficient or bootstrapped operating posture. Note: a material discrepancy exists between the firmographic header (Coinfloor, London, 2013, institutional audience) and the substantive operational data (Bitcoin-only retail/SMB platform, Isle of Man incorporation, 2014 founding, consumer/SMB/HNWI segments); the analysis above reflects the operational evidence in the body of the data.
