CoinJar, one of Australia’s longest-running cryptocurrency platforms, announced an initial launch in 20 U.S. states as it seeks to expand its global footprint and offer U.S. customers access to its trading platform and new AI-enabled features, the company said in a statement on its corporate blog and press materials.

Rollout and states covered

CoinJar’s public announcement says the service is now available in 20 states, with the company planning to extend coverage to additional states over time and allow residents of non-launch states to sign up to receive notifications when the platform becomes available in their jurisdiction[1].

Regulatory and banking arrangements

CoinJar has registered as a Money Services Business with the U.S. Treasury’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) and is licensed as a money transmitter, listing an NMLS number in its disclosures, and notes that in some states money transmission services may be provided by partner banks including Cross River Bank, Member FDIC[1][6].

Product features and offerings

The exchange offers spot trading and custody services and markets itself as providing access to more than 60 cryptocurrencies through easy onboarding and a mobile-first experience[6].

As part of the U.S. expansion, CoinJar said it will introduce CoinJar AI, an assistant integrated into the exchange platform to help users navigate the product and trading options, according to the company’s press materials cited by industry outlets[5].

Strategic partners and operations

CoinJar’s U.S. operations are supported by partnerships and payments infrastructure arrangements; company statements reference collaborations with compliant banking and payments partners to enable fiat on- and off-ramps for American customers[1][7].

Market context and company background

Founded in Australia, CoinJar has positioned itself as a veteran exchange with a focus on user experience and regulatory compliance; the company says it serves retail customers and has run operations across multiple markets for years[6].

Industry coverage notes CoinJar’s entry into the U.S. is notable given the complex regulatory environment for crypto firms in America, and positions the move as part of a broader push by non-U.S. exchanges to capture market share as regulatory clarity evolves[3].

Comments from leadership

In public-facing materials and press channels, CoinJar’s leadership framed the launch as a key milestone in international expansion and emphasized customer support resources for new U.S. users[1][7].

What users should know

• Availability: CoinJar is available now in an initial set of 20 U.S. states; residents of other states can sign up for notifications when the service expands to their state[1].
• Compliance: CoinJar is registered with FinCEN as a Money Services Business and lists an NMLS money-transmitter registration for its U.S. operations[1][6].
• Product: The platform supports spot trading of dozens of cryptocurrencies and will roll out an on-platform AI assistant called CoinJar AI for U.S. users as part of the launch[5][6].

Industry reaction and outlook

Market observers and crypto press framed the launch as a pragmatic expansion by an established non-U.S. exchange into America’s large but regulation-heavy market, noting the company’s emphasis on licensing, banking partners and AI-enabled features as competitive differentiators[3][5].

How to sign up

CoinJar’s announcement directs interested U.S. customers to create accounts via its website or mobile app and to contact its support team for onboarding questions; the company lists an email contact for customer support in its blog post[1].
