SwissBorg is not just a platform, but a movement that redefines traditional wealth management through the power of blockchain technology and community involvement.
Since its founding in 2017, SwissBorg has pursued the vision of creating financial freedom for everyone: fair, secure, and transparent.
What is SwissBorg?
SwissBorg is a mobile application crypto fintech founded in 2017 and designed in Lausanne, Switzerland. At the end of 2017 and in 2018, it conducted one of the most successful ICOs (initial coin offerings) of the time, raising the incredible amount of 53 million dollars from over 24,000 supporters in 149 countries.
SwissBorg offers a wide range of products designed to be useful to users at every stage of their journey in the crypto world. We will delve into each of them in more detail in the following sections, but here is a brief overview.
- Investment ramp for entry and exit. Designed for easy onboarding into the crypto world, with support for deposits and withdrawals in both fiat and cryptocurrencies. One of the distinctive features of our access ramp is the availability of a wide range of fiat currencies for deposits and withdrawals.
- Meta-exchange (MEX) or our Smart Engine. The first platform that seamlessly integrates fiat or forex (FX) exchanges, centralized cryptocurrency exchanges (CEX), and decentralized cryptocurrency exchanges (DEX) across different blockchains. The Smart Engine finds the optimal path for any transaction across all integrated exchanges, in a single click. It is the first and, for now, the only aggregator of the three types of exchanges that is publicly accessible to anyone.
- Earn. Used to easily stake your crypto or access other passive income opportunities, including on-chain liquidity provision and even mining.
- Alpha Deal. Through the Alpha program of SwissBorg, you can invest in more sophisticated investment opportunities, such as early-stage projects, participate in node sales, or even benefit from over-the-counter (OTC) deals.
- Crypto Bundle. The perfect product to invest in an entire crypto sector and emerging crypto trends, diversifying your portfolio with a single click.
Over the years, we have witnessed many high-level scams that have shaken people’s trust in the cryptocurrency sector. The main reason why SwissBorg has survived is because the trust of our users has remained unwavering even in difficult times.
Swissborg has indeed gained the trust of users by offering top-level security through MPC keyless technology and complete transparency. By separating user funds from the company’s resources through Fireblocks and ensuring, through proof of responsibility, that each individual’s crypto funds are safe.
Overview and statistics of SwissBorg
SwissBorg is a global company, designed in Lausanne, Switzerland, with an operational presence in over 40 countries. It has over 2 billion in AUM from over 840,000 verified users (who have passed KYC identity checks), mainly from European countries but not only. Currently, the holders of BORG tokens are over 113,000.
The token BORG
The BORG token is the fundamental pillar that unites all the products of the SwissBorg app. It is a utility token that offers various benefits throughout the app. By locking a certain amount of BORG tokens for a year, the user can access a Premium level that entails several advantages:
- Lower commissions: The higher your level, the lower your commissions will be. You can find here the details of the commissions, divided by product.
- A higher APY: The higher levels of Premium benefit from higher annual returns in most earning strategies.
- Best Alpha conditions: Holding more BORG also means access to better Alpha Deals, either by accessing exclusive opportunities or simply obtaining better conditions.
The holders of BORG also benefit from the following utilities, regardless of their Premium level.
- Governance – 1 BORG equals 1 vote, all our holders are encouraged to regularly participate in the future of SwissBorg through votes and initiatives.
- BorgPad liquidity pool – Users can lock their BORG tokens in on-chain liquidity pools in exchange for rewards.
- Loyalty program – We constantly reward the most loyal hodlers with unique and exciting initiatives.
Below is a complete breakdown of the costs and benefits of all Premium levels (which may be subject to changes in the future).
Ramp on and off
SwissBorg offers one of the fastest and most efficient access ramps.
Users can deposit a wide range of fiat currencies with ease, via credit/debit card instantly or via bank transfer (which typically takes one or two days). Withdrawals from the SwissBorg app directly to the user’s bank account generally occur within 15 seconds.
Users can also deposit their cryptocurrencies from other platforms or wallets. For some assets, we support deposits on different blockchains.
The Meta-Exchange
Facilitating users in finding the optimal exchange path has been one of the main objectives since the founding of SwissBorg. The Meta-Exchange (MEX) started as an aggregator of FX and CEX platforms, however, over time we have noticed that the future of cryptocurrencies is on-chain.
In 2023, we integrated Solana into our MEX by adding the first DEX to our Smart Engine aggregator. This allows us to add almost any token to our app, available on any of our supported DEX and chains.
We are happy to say that the on-chain narrative is a huge success and on January 21, 2025, we integrated the second Avalanche blockchain. There are others in the pipeline, but we cannot reveal which ones yet.
The advantages of the MEX:
- Multi-chain. Switch from one blockchain to another in seconds with just one click, without ever hearing about bridges.
- Access to better liquidity. By conducting transactions through SwissBorg’s MEX, you gain simultaneous access to most of the major liquidity pools for any token.
- Best price. With simultaneous access to all the exchanges we support, the Smart Engine will always seek the optimal path to switch from one asset to another.
- Transaction speed. Even for complex transactions that include passing through different chains, going from FX, CEX, and DEX, it will take less than 5 seconds.
- Total transparency and trust. No hidden costs. After each transaction, you get a complete analysis of the path taken to move from one asset to another.
- Easy to use. The SwissBorg app is extremely easy to use: simply specify the assets you wish to trade and let the Smart Engine handle the execution.
- In continuous expansion. At the moment we have 5 CEX and 7 DEX integrated, and more are planned for the future.
Automatic investment with Auto-Invest
Auto-Invest is the simple and automated way to invest regularly in cryptocurrencies without constantly monitoring the market. With Auto-Invest, you simply set the amount you want to invest and the time interval, and the rest will be done automatically.
With Auto-Invest, you can set up your long-term investment strategy with minimal effort.
Advantages of Auto-Invest:

- Time saving. Your plans are executed automatically without the need for monitoring.
- Flexibility. You have full control over your investments and can easily make changes whenever you want.
SwissBorg Earn
Earn is a feature within the SwissBorg app that allows users to generate passive income on their crypto and potentially earn additional rewards through staking on certain protocols. Earn offers a transparent and easy-to-use solution for those who want to benefit from the world of decentralized finance (DeFi) without having to manage complex processes and pay expensive fees.
The DeFi world can be very complicated to navigate, and users must be careful to avoid the numerous pitfalls. SwissBorg analyzes the protocols to ensure their compliance with our security standards, but DeFi remains risky, and our due diligence process does not completely eliminate the risk of exploits.
There are also different types of risks, and some of these risks are linked to the type of investment strategy: for example, staking involves different risks compared to lending or providing liquidity. We assign a risk profile and the expected percentage of gain to any earning strategy, so that the user can make an informed decision based on their risk preferences.
The advantages:
- Intuitive access to DeFi. We simplify access to the challenging on-chain world.
- Risk analysis. We present all the risks to you so that you can decide in peace whether to lock your assets.
- Transparency. Get a detailed analysis of how your funds are managed in each earning strategy and the origin of the returns.
- Airdrop. Some strategies include protocol “reward points”. We redistribute to the user any token airdrop we receive from a protocol.
- No gas fees. Sometimes blockchain gas fees can be so expensive that they wipe out any passive income on small amounts. For this reason, some strategies are completely inaccessible to the average investor. SwissBorg allows small and large investors to pool their money, thus reducing the gas cost to a fraction per user.
- Continuously evolving catalog. The world of decentralization evolves rapidly, making it difficult to stay updated on all the opportunities. Our team of experts is dedicated to identifying those that are most interesting and compliant with our security standards.
- No hidden costs. There is nothing more to say.
SwissBorg Earn is ideal for users who want to put their crypto to work. It provides an easy way to generate passive income and access DeFi opportunities, previously available only to the most experienced crypto investors.
Alpha and BorgPad
SwissBorg Alpha is the launchpad within the SwissBorg app. It is the place where users can invest in more sophisticated, albeit risky, investment strategies. So far, it has involved investing in early-stage tokens (pre-TGE), OTC deals with already active tokens, or node sales. You can see all our proposals here.
The Alpha team performs a qualitative analysis of the projects before offering them to our users. To access these deals, users must have started their own Borger Journey and hold at least 100 BORG. More BORG tokens translate into higher Camp levels of the journey and access to better conditions.
The Earn & Alpha teams have combined their expertise to offer users stakedrop vaults. When a promising project develops a point system for a possible airdrop, we can offer a stakedrop to accumulate them. In the case of an airdrop, the tokens are redistributed to the participants, net of fees.
SwissBorg Alpha was launched in the spring of 2023, a year full of lessons that led, in the summer of 2024, to the birth of BorgPad, which aims to assist young projects with their TGE strategy. CEX exchanges are generally too expensive for startups, BorgPad promotes the launch of fair and decentralized tokens only on DEX.

With Crypto Bundles, users automatically invest in a carefully selected group of cryptocurrencies, which are regularly updated to align with current market conditions. In this way, users can stay updated on the latest developments and invest based on their own convictions and risk tolerance.
