Robinhood completed its acquisition of WonderFi on Monday after the Canadian digital asset firm secured the necessary approval from the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization (CIRO).
The transaction gives Robinhood an established foothold in Canada and enables it to offer regulated crypto products to customers nationwide. The deal also pushes the company’s international funded customer base beyond 1 million, including approximately 300,000 funded customers from WonderFi.
Robinhood will continue to serve WonderFi’s institutional clients, complementing the institutional capabilities it has developed through Bitstamp. WonderFi employees will join Robinhood’s Canadian operations.
Since opening its Toronto headquarters in 2024, Robinhood has made investments in Canada as a key engineering and technology hub. Johann Kerbrat, SVP and General Manager of Robinhood Crypto & International, said WonderFi’s track record serving a broad range of crypto investors makes it a valuable addition to Robinhood’s expanding international business.
“We’re pleased to have closed our acquisition and look forward to delivering innovative, user-centric investing products to Canadian customers,” Kerbrat said.
