Bitget Wallet has officially launched its new crypto-linked payment card in partnership with Mastercard and Immersve. The Bitget Wallet Card, which went live on July 1, is now available to users in the United Kingdom and European Union.
Crypto Payments with No Fees
The Bitget Wallet Card allows users to spend cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin directly from their self-custodied wallets. Transactions are processed through real-time crypto-to-fiat conversion and are accepted at more than 150 million merchants worldwide that support Mastercard. One of the key highlights is that the card imposes no transaction fees, making it a cost-effective solution for users looking to spend crypto like traditional money.
All transactions comply with Mastercard’s strict standards for customer identification and anti-money laundering, ensuring security and legal compliance across supported regions.
Seamless Spending Through Blockchain Integration
The virtual card, accessible through the Bitget Wallet app, links directly to users’ wallets without the need to move funds to an exchange or custodial account. This design enables greater control over funds while simplifying the payment process for crypto holders. When a user makes a purchase, their crypto is automatically converted to fiat currency in real time, allowing merchants to receive payments as usual.
This model represents a growing trend in the payments space, where blockchain infrastructure is used to offer traditional financial experiences backed by decentralized assets.
While the Bitget Wallet Card is currently limited to the UK and EU markets, Bitget has announced plans to expand to additional regions. Latin America, Australia, and New Zealand are among the next targeted areas. A U.S. release is also in development but will depend on the outcome of regulatory reviews.
This move also continues Mastercard’s efforts to bridge traditional finance and the crypto world. The company has already partnered with other crypto firms such as Gemini and Bybit to enable similar offerings. By working with Bitget Wallet and Immersve, Mastercard is expanding its digital payments ecosystem while embracing the future of on-chain finance.
