Company Description
Banxa Holdings Inc. (BNXAF) historically traded on the OTC market in the United States and was listed on the TSX Venture Exchange under the symbol BNXA and on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange under AC00. According to company disclosures, Banxa describes itself as an infrastructure provider for enabling embedded crypto within payment platforms, operating within the broader information sector and data processing, hosting, and related services industry classification.
Business focus and role in the crypto ecosystem
Banxa states that it focuses on enabling businesses to embed crypto functionality into their existing platforms. The company describes its offering as infrastructure that empowers partners to integrate crypto and fiat transactions for global audiences. Banxa highlights that it works through an extensive and growing network of global and local payment solutions and regulatory licenses, with the aim of supporting integration of crypto and fiat and helping partners achieve lower fees and higher conversion rates.
In its public communications, Banxa emphasizes that its infrastructure is designed for embedded crypto within payment platforms and that it operates across multiple regions. The company notes that it is headquartered in the USA, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, reflecting an organizational presence across these regions rather than a single head office location. Banxa also indicates that its team is focused on a vision of global commerce that runs on digital assets.
Regulatory footprint and licensing
Banxa has disclosed a focus on regulatory compliance and licensing as part of its infrastructure model. The company reports that it operates through a network of regulatory licenses that support its embedded crypto activities. In Europe, Banxa announced that a subsidiary, EU Internet Ventures B.V., has been operating under a De Nederlandsche Bank registration and that it secured regulatory approval for a Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) license in the Netherlands, allowing it to operate as a regulated crypto asset service provider across the European Union.
Banxa has also reported that, in the United States, entities within the Banxa group hold money transmitter licenses in a number of designated states. In addition, the company has referred to existing licenses in the United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia. These disclosures indicate that regulatory approvals and licenses are a central component of Banxa’s operating model for embedded crypto infrastructure.
Corporate transaction and take-private status
Banxa Holdings Inc. entered into a plan of arrangement with OSL Group Limited and OSL BNXA Acquisition Inc., under which the purchaser agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Banxa for cash consideration per share. Securityholders of Banxa approved this arrangement at a meeting where the arrangement resolution received the requisite voting thresholds.
Following court approvals and the satisfaction of conditions described in the arrangement agreement and related circular, Banxa and OSL Group announced that the arrangement became effective as of January 2, 2026 (Vancouver time). Under this court-approved plan of arrangement, OSL BNXA Acquisition Inc. acquired all of the issued and outstanding Banxa shares, and Banxa became a wholly owned subsidiary of the purchaser. The companies disclosed that Banxa applied to cease to be a reporting issuer under applicable Canadian securities laws and to terminate its public reporting requirements.
Banxa further indicated that its shares were listed on the TSX Venture Exchange, the OTC Pink Limited Market, and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and that it was expected the shares would be delisted from these facilities following completion of the arrangement, with delisting from the TSX Venture Exchange expected as of the close of business on January 5, 2026 and subsequent delistings from the OTC and Frankfurt exchanges.
Trading status and implications for investors
As a result of the completed plan of arrangement with OSL Group, Banxa Holdings Inc. transitioned from a publicly traded issuer to a wholly owned subsidiary of OSL BNXA Acquisition Inc. The company has indicated that it applied to cease to be a reporting issuer and that its shares are expected to be delisted from the exchanges on which they traded. For investors researching the historical BNXAF symbol, this means that Banxa’s common shares were acquired for cash consideration under the arrangement, and the symbol now primarily represents the historical public listing rather than an actively traded equity.
Investors interested in Banxa’s ongoing activities should be aware that, based on the disclosed transaction, Banxa operates as part of the OSL Group. Public information about Banxa’s operations, regulatory footprint, and embedded crypto infrastructure may therefore be found in historical Banxa disclosures and, where applicable, in OSL Group communications and filings.
Industry classification and operations context
Within the information sector, Banxa is associated with data processing, hosting, and related services. Its own descriptions emphasize infrastructure for embedded crypto, a network of payment solutions, and regulatory licenses rather than direct consumer-facing trading platforms. Banxa’s communications reference integration of crypto and fiat for global audiences and a focus on enabling partners to embed crypto into existing payment and commerce flows.
Banxa has also reported on financial metrics such as total transaction volume, gross profit, net take rate, and adjusted EBITDA in its historical quarterly and annual results, reflecting a business model that tracks transaction-driven performance and associated profitability measures. These disclosures have been made through filings and news releases available on SEDAR+ and other channels referenced in the company’s announcements.
Historical perspective on Banxa’s public company phase
During its period as a listed company, Banxa issued regular updates on financial performance, regulatory developments, and the progress of the arrangement with OSL Group. The company highlighted factors such as competition, partner churn, exposure to specific crypto ecosystems, inventory valuation in volatile markets, and user trading activity as influences on its transaction volume and profitability metrics.
With the completion of the take-private transaction, Banxa’s public reporting obligations are expected to cease following regulatory approvals of its applications to stop being a reporting issuer. The BNXAF symbol and related listings thus serve as a record of Banxa’s time as a public company and the steps leading to its acquisition by OSL Group.
