Our Mission

Bridging Digital Assets and Everyday Life

Too many people hold cryptocurrency they struggle to spend. High fees, complex processes, and privacy concerns create barriers between digital wealth and real-world utility.

We're changing that. WalletSpree provides instant, private conversion of cryptocurrency into gift cards from hundreds of trusted brands — no banks, no unnecessary data collection, no waiting.

Operating from Switzerland ensures we meet the highest standards for data protection, regulatory compliance, and operational security. Your trust is earned, not assumed.

"We didn't build WalletSpree to disrupt banking. We built it to give people genuine financial freedom — the kind where your purchases remain your business."
Lukas Hartmann
Co-Founder & CEO

What Drives Us

Our Core Principles

Privacy First

Your data stays yours. We collect only what's legally required and nothing more. Swiss data protection laws — among the strictest in the world — govern everything we do.

Bank-Grade Security

Cold storage for 95% of assets. Multi-signature authorization. Regular third-party penetration testing. We treat security as a core product feature, not an afterthought.

Regulatory Compliance

Fully compliant with Swiss AML regulations and EU directives. We work with regulators, not around them. Transparency builds trust.

Instant Delivery

Gift cards delivered in seconds, not days. Our infrastructure handles thousands of transactions per minute with 99.99% uptime.
