Bitdax Trust

Verification that takes one scan.

    A verifier scans the QR code on a certificate, licence or signed document.

  • 02

    Validate

    Signature, issuer, timestamp and revocation status are checked in one request.

  • 03

    A clear valid / expired / suspended / revoked result — and the check is logged.

One business line

The Virtual Asset Service Providers Act 2025 establishes a licensing regime in Kenya. Bitdax has not been granted a licence under that Act. Virtual asset services shown here are demonstrations and are not offered to the public.

Compliance

We publish where every approval stands.

Regulation is a product control at Bitdax, not marketing decoration. Each approval below shows its real position — including the ones we have not obtained.

Communications Authority of Kenya

Electronic Certification Service Provider (E-CSP) accreditation — Kenya Information and Communications Act

Application in preparation

Bitdax is preparing an application for accreditation as an Electronic Certification Service Provider with the Communications Authority of Kenya. No accreditation has been granted. Trust services are demonstrated in a controlled environment only.

Communications Authority of Kenya

Regulatory sandbox admission

Application in preparation

Bitdax intends to apply for admission to the Communications Authority regulatory sandbox. Admission has not been granted.

Capital Markets Authority

Virtual Asset Service Provider licensing — Virtual Asset Service Providers Act 2025

Application in preparation

The Virtual Asset Service Providers Act 2025 establishes a licensing regime for virtual asset services in Kenya. Bitdax is preparing an application. No licence has been granted and virtual asset services are not offered to the public.

Central Bank of Kenya

Payment service provider authorisation / partnership with an authorised institution

Planned

Payment and settlement functions that move value for third parties are designed to route through an institution authorised by the Central Bank of Kenya. Bitdax does not hold a CBK authorisation and does not settle third-party funds on its own account.

Not applicable — merchant activity

Acceptance of Bitcoin as settlement for Bitdax's own invoices

Not available

Bitdax accepts Bitcoin as settlement for its own invoices and purchase orders. Receiving payment for goods and services Bitdax itself supplies is merchant activity, not a third-party virtual asset service, and does not require a licence under the Virtual Asset Service Providers Act 2025. Bitdax does not exchange, transfer or hold virtual assets on behalf of any third party. Kenya Digital Assets Tax is accounted for where it applies.

Office of the Data Protection Commissioner

Data controller / processor registration — Data Protection Act 2019

Application in preparation

Bitdax is preparing registration as a data controller and processor under the Data Protection Act 2019. Data minimisation and retention controls are implemented in the platform design.

Full regulatory status

Developers

One API for identity, credentials and verification.

Versioned REST endpoints, idempotency keys on writes, signed webhooks, scoped API keys and structured errors. Every material action produces an audit event.
