Why SEPA is Important for Fiat OnRamp
Introduction
SEPA stands for Single Euro Payments Area. It is a framework of the European Central Bank (ECB) to enable customers to make cashless euro payments – via credit transfer and direct debit – to anywhere in the European Union, as well as a number of non-EU countries, in a fast, safe and efficient way - just like national payments. This way SEPA aims to harmonise and accelerate payments across the EU/EEA regions.

In essence, SEPA basically operates as a domestic wire transfer for EUR. In this vein, crypto exchange platforms can integrate SEPA into their fiat infrastructure which will allow customers across countries in Europe to make fiat deposits in EUR.
