French fintech Lyzi, built on the Tezos blockchain, has expanded its European presence by bringing cryptocurrency payments to Porsche Centre Montpellier and Lamborghini Bordeaux, two of the first luxury car dealerships in Europe to adopt digital assets for vehicle purchases.
The company, which raised €1.3 million in April 2025 to accelerate cryptocurrency adoption, is also extending its technology to the humanitarian sector through a partnership with Doctors of the World (Médecins du Monde).
Crypto payments arrive in the luxury auto sector
Porsche Centre Montpellier and Lamborghini Bordeaux are now the first dealerships in their respective networks to accept cryptocurrency payments via Lyzi. Customers can purchase vehicles using Bitcoin (BTC), Tezos (XTZ), stablecoins (EURC, USDC), and more than 80 other cryptocurrencies.
Dealerships receive instant euro conversion without exposure to crypto volatility, while buyers enjoy seamless wallet-based payments.
Crypto donation platform with Doctors of the World
Lyzi has also partnered with Doctors of the World to enable cryptocurrency donations supporting more than 400 programs in over 80 countries. The collaboration allows donors worldwide to contribute digital assets to the organization’s humanitarian projects.
A growing European presence
Built on the Tezos blockchain, Lyzi now connects to more than 1 million payment terminals across Europe. Since its seed round, led by Christopher Grilhault des Fontaines, NYX Venture Singapore, and Jean-Luc Bernard (founder of Astek), the company has added partners including Smeg, Société des Bains de Mer de Monaco, and S.T. Dupont.
Lyzi plans to further expand internationally in 2026, continuing its mission to make cryptocurrency payments accessible and practical for both consumers and institutions.
