#MastercardStablecoinCards Mastercard and MoonPay Launch Global Stablecoin Payment Cards

Mastercard has partnered with crypto infrastructure firm MoonPay to introduce a new stablecoin card, allowing users to spend digital assets like USDC and USDT directly at over 150 million locations worldwide. This innovation enables seamless online and in-store purchases by converting stablecoins to local fiat at the point of sale. The program leverages Iron’s API-driven stablecoin infrastructure, acquired by MoonPay earlier in 2025, to power real-time transactions. These cards can be issued by fintechs and businesses, enabling them to offer branded solutions tied to users’ crypto wallets. Additionally, the partnership supports stablecoin-based payouts for gig workers, freelancers, and creators—marking a major step toward merging blockchain with traditional financial systems and accelerating mainstream crypto adoption.
