by
  • Now you can spend your crypto with the elegance of a Netflix password shared with your whole family – legally
  • Zero fees? Yes. A 0.4% market spread? Because nothing is ever free when it’s crypto, clearly
  • Europe’s in, Norway’s in – and now we get to ponder who actually lives in Liechtenstein

 

OKX has emancipated European crypto users from the shackles of manual conversions. Finally, a way to spend your stablecoins without looking like a crypto newbie at the grocery store.

Marriage of Crypto and Mastercard: Here’s How to Win at ‘I Can’t Buy Groceries Without Converting’

OKX Card just said “I do” to European crypto enthusiasts. If you’ve ever thought, “I just need a Visa for my USDC,” this is for you. The company’s big announcement? Basically, “Stop converting manually. Let your stablecoins do the work while you binge-watch Netflix in euros.”

OKX Card is now live in Europe.

We’re modernizing money by turning crypto into something actual people might use for groceries. Finally, no more clunky conversions!

Spend stablecoins seamlessly, because adulting is hard enough without 10-step crypto hacks.

This is stablecoin-first finance. Surprise! It works if you don’t yell.

Use your USDC or USDG like they’re regular money but with zero-UFD (Ultimate Financial Drama). The card converts your stablecoins to euros the second you swipe – like magic, but with more spreadsheets.

Direct smart wallet integration? Oh, so instead of storing your crypto in a vault and then burning it on a latte, you can just… zap it at checkout. Third-party custody? Not today, Satan.

Merchants get euros, users get crypto. From their perspective, it’s like crypto never existed. From yours? It’s like you’ve cracked the code for “I’m a crypto bro who also buys socks.”

Real-Time Conversion with Zero Transaction Fees: A Miracle or Just MiCA?

The moment you swipe, your stablecoins transform into euros faster than you say “FOMO.” It’s like a crypto shapeshifter, but without the side effects.

No transaction fees. Not for euros, not for other currencies. Because OKX somehow believes humanity deserves to pay 0% fees. Sacrilegious!

Foreign exchange fees? Broke that in 2023. Mastercard does the conversion – because why charge users when you can charge the economy?

The 0.4% market spread is your only tax. But hey, at least it’s not a 30% “regulatory fee” from a sketchy vibe.

No issuance fees. No monthly costs. No annual fees. Just chill, hover over Google Pay, and act like you’ve never lost a euro to crypto.

Up to 20% Cashback: Because Your Stablecoin Deserves a Bonus, Too

Eligible users earn crypto cashback like it’s a Starbucks loyalty card. No staking, no lock-ups – just spend USDG and poof more coins. The first 30 days even throw in 20% for the VIP viewers.

Cashback comes instantly, in crypto. Because you’d really rather get a bonus as Bitcoin than a latte. Bezos obviously agrees.

Post-promo? Only the VIPs keep getting treats. Standard accounts? Enjoy the M&Ms of crypto: just hope they’re not the plain kind.

Promotional terms may change. So might your relationship status once you start counting cashback in tiny decimal places.

You’re Covered in Most of Europe: Iceland’s Still Waving a No

Available in most EEA countries. Iceland and Liechtenstein? Still prepping their crypto soufflés. Norway’s in. Consider it a secret club with fewer reindeer.

OKX swears by MiCA compliance. The card itself might not be MiCA, but it’s as good as Lady Gaga at dating old money.

To use it? You need an OKX Pay account with supported assets. Easy as 1-2-3, if “1-2-3” is your whitelisted, fiat-connected, government-issued sense of order.

Wherever Mastercard lives, it’s there. Millions of merchants. Because why go to a store when you can spend your crypto in a way that looks normal to your barista.
