TokenNest was built by people who wanted a Canadian crypto platform that banks, auditors and regulators could work with — and that never asked clients to hand over their keys.
TokenNest (Crypto World Trade Center Inc.) is a Vancouver-based, FINTRAC-registered money services business providing crypto and stablecoin infrastructure for Canadian residents and businesses: an OTC trading desk, a payment gateway, an on-ramp and off-ramp API and cross-border stablecoin payments, with settlement in CAD or USD.
TokenNest began in 2023 as a small desk buying and selling crypto and stablecoins for Canadians who wanted three things the market wasn't offering together: a firm price, same-day settlement, and their coins in a wallet they control. Larger tickets followed, and the OTC desk grew out of that demand. We registered with FINTRAC as a money services business, then with Revenu Québec, and opened to the Québec market before launching the self-serve platform. The rules haven't changed since day one — the quoted price is the paid price, and we never hold your keys.

TokenNest started in 2023 as a desk buying and selling crypto and stablecoins for Canadians who wanted a firm price, same-day settlement and their coins in their own wallet. Larger clients followed, and the OTC desk grew out of that demand.
Registered with FINTRAC as a money services business, we then registered with Revenu Québec and opened to the Québec market — the second-largest in the country and one of the strictest to serve.
With the desk proven, we launched the platform: self-serve buying and selling, corporate accounts, and same-day stablecoin payouts for Canadian businesses paying abroad. Same rules as day one — the quoted price is the paid price, and we never hold your keys.
