Cryptocurrency-linked credit and debit card transactions have experienced a significant increase, with monthly volumes rising by approximately 230% year-on-year in 2025, reaching a cumulative transaction value of $7.8 billion. Visa has played a major role, processing about 90% of these transactions through partnerships with on-chain-native firms like Jupiter Global.
The adoption of cryptocurrency payment cards has accelerated in 2026, largely due to the increased use of stablecoins as a payment method. This trend allows users to spend stablecoins similarly to fiat currency. Notably, OKX introduced a Mastercard-based stablecoin payment card in Europe in January 2026, further facilitating this growth.
