What are digital euros?

Learn what EURC is and how it works as a digital euro in Sling Money.

Updated this week

Digital euros are euros that exist online instead of in a traditional bank account. At Sling, we use EURC — a digital version of the euro issued by Circle Internet Financial.

Each EURC is backed by real euros held in euro-denominated bank accounts, and every EURC can always be exchanged 1:1 for a regular euro.

EURC is issued under European regulations and is overseen in France, in line with the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) framework — meaning it’s designed to be secure, transparent, and fully compliant.


Transparency and compliance

Circle provides full transparency into how EURC is managed and backed.

You can learn more about its reserves, issuance, and regulation through Circle’s official Euro Coin Hub and the MiCA whitepaper.
