MetaMask Launches Crypto Payment Card for U.S. Users

MetaMask today launched the MetaMask Card in the United States for early access through an exciting limited pilot. This card lets users easily spend the cryptocy they hold in their MetaMask wallet at both physical stores and online—wherever Mastercard is accepted.

For those who may not know, MetaMask is one of the largest crypto wallets available, meaning that one can store their digital assets like Ethereum, other cryptos, and just about everything else. The new MetaMask Card will basically simplify the process for spending cryptocurrencies in the real world like a regular debit or credit card.

Currently, the MetaMask Card is available in limited markets, such as the US, EU, UK, Brazil, Mexico, and Colombia. However, it has excluded New York and Vermont residents from accessing the card at least for now. If users are in one of these select areas, they can register on a waitlist to be among the people who will be given easy access.

MetaMask has teamed up with Mastercard and Baanx, also known as Crypto Life, to make this card a reality. The MetaMask Card functions just like a typical debit card. Users can spend their crypto balance without a hassle. Once they have set up their account via the MetaMask Portfolio and activated their card via Crypto Life, users are ready to go and start spending.
