What is OKX Card?

OKX Card is a Mastercard-powered crypto debit card that lets you spend stablecoins directly from your self-custody wallet at over 150 million merchant locations worldwide. Unlike traditional crypto cards that require preloading or manual conversions, OKX Card converts your stablecoins to euros only at the moment of purchase.

Self-Custody

Your stablecoins remain in your wallet until you make a purchase. You maintain full control of your assets at all times.

Mastercard Network

Accepted at over 150 million Mastercard merchant locations worldwide. Pay online, in-store, or via contactless tap-to-pay.

Instant Conversion

Stablecoins are converted to euros only at the point of sale. No need to preload, top up, or manually convert your crypto.

Stablecoins settle faster and cheaper than traditional rails, remove cross-border limitations, and operate 24/7 with instant finality.

Fully Compliant
