Bitget Wallet Launches Zero-Fee Crypto Card with Mastercard and Immersve

Bitget Wallet has introduced a zero-fee crypto card in collaboration with Mastercard and Immersve, enabling users to spend their cryptocurrencies at over 150 million merchants globally. This innovative product allows users to fund their transactions in real-time by either depositing crypto or performing an on-chain swap, making it a seamless integration with traditional payment systems.

The card, available through the Bitget Wallet app, can be issued instantly and added to mobile wallets like Apple Pay or Google Pay. This feature allows for tap-and-pay transactions at both online and physical stores, enhancing the convenience and accessibility of crypto spending. All transactions are processed on-chain and converted from crypto to fiat in real-time using Immersve’s infrastructure, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards such as Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML).

The initial launch of the card is set for the United Kingdom and the European Union, with plans to expand to Latin America, Australia, and New Zealand in the coming months. This rollout aligns with the growing demand for real-world crypto utility and the effort to bridge decentralized finance with traditional payment systems. Jamie Elkaleh, CMO at Bitget Wallet, highlighted the significance of this partnership, stating that it allows Bitget Wallet users to pay with crypto anywhere Mastercard is accepted, fulfilling the vision of making crypto a part of everyday life.

Beyond fee-free spending, Bitget Wallet is offering a range of incentives, including transaction-based rewards, yield opportunities on idle wallet balances, and one-time bonuses for completing identity verification. The card launches with support for USDC on the Base blockchain, offering fast and low-cost transactions. Users can instantly top up their cards from the Bitget Wallet, with funds available in real-time. At checkout, USDC is automatically and seamlessly converted to fiat via licensed partners. The application process is fully digital, with 3-minute approval, requiring only basic KYC and a 10 USDC issuance fee. No credit checks or deposits are needed.

Early users of the Bitget Wallet Card benefit from a 5% cashback in BGB during the first month, limited to the first 2,000 cardholders. The card offers a total cost of just 1.7%, no top-up fees, and the ability to earn yield by staking USDC, making it one of the most competitive crypto payment cards available today. Immersve CEO Jerome Faury emphasized the significance of this partnership, stating that it bridges the gap between Web3 and traditional finance by allowing users to spend crypto as easily as they spend fiat, on a global scale. Scott Abrahams, EVP of Global Partnerships at Mastercard, added that digital wallets are quickly becoming as common as email addresses, marking a critical step in bringing digital assets closer to mainstream utility.

With over 80 million global users, Bitget Wallet is a non-custodial wallet that provides a comprehensive suite of services, including DEX trading, staking, DApp browsing, and multi-chain support across over 130 blockchains. Backed by a $300+ million user protection fund, it champions the vision of making crypto simple, safe, and part of everyday life. This launch represents a significant milestone in the integration of cryptocurrency into mainstream financial systems, offering users a convenient and secure way to spend their digital assets globally.
