💳 Mastercard Launches Euro Non-Custodial Bitcoin & Crypto Debit Card
Mastercard has taken another big step into crypto: a Euro-denominated, non-custodial Bitcoin and crypto debit card — launched in partnership with payments provider Mercuryo.
🔑 What makes it different?
Non-custodial: You keep control of your crypto in your own wallet until the moment you spend. No pre-deposit required.
Multi-asset support: The card supports 40+ cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin and Ethereum.
Seamless payments: Spend crypto anywhere Mastercard is accepted (100M+ merchants). Transactions convert instantly to EUR.
Easy integration: Works with Apple Pay and Google Pay for mobile payments.
🧐 Why this matters
Self-custody meets convenience → You stay in control of your private keys, but still use crypto for daily payments.
Growing adoption → Traditional finance giants like Mastercard bridging crypto to everyday spending shows how far mainstream integration has come.
Competition in payments → With Visa, PayPal, and now Mastercard offering crypto rails, expect faster innovation — and maybe lower fees.
⚠️ Things to keep in mind
Fees and limits are set by the issuer (Mercuryo).
KYC/AML verification is required.
Rollout is focused on Europe first.
👉 TL;DR: Mastercard just made it easier to spend Bitcoin and 40+ other cryptos directly from your own wallet. A new step for crypto adoption.
