The MetaMask Card, a debit card allowing users to spend cryptocurrency from their self-custodied wallets, is now available to all users across the United States. The card, developed by Consensys in partnership with Mastercard, follows a limited pilot in the UK and EU. Alongside the free card, a premium MetaMask Metal Card is being introduced for $199 per year, offering increased cash back rewards and additional benefits like no foreign transaction fees.
The MetaMask debit card is now accessible for users across the United States. It was initially rolled out in 2024 for a limited pilot in the United Kingdom and European Union.
Created in collaboration between Ethereum software firm Consensys and Mastercard, the card allows users to make everyday purchases using their crypto balances. MetaMask Staff Product Manager Ale Machado stated, “With MetaMask Card, your assets stay in your wallet—under your control—until the exact moment you make a purchase.”
He added that for users who hold stablecoins, this unlocks real everyday utility. The firm also unveiled a premium MetaMask card with added benefits for an annual fee.
For $199 a year, users can obtain the MetaMask Metal Card, which offers up to 3% cashback on the first $10,000 spent annually. Standard cardholders may receive up to 1% cashback on purchases.
Machado said the Metal Card is for users who want further perks like no foreign transaction fees and exclusive event access. To participate, users need to complete ID verification and compliance checks.
This rollout follows other updates for the brand, including the unveiling of mUSD, its Ethereum-based stablecoin. The wallet brand also confirmed plans for a native token and unveiled a $30 million rewards program.
Machado indicated the pilot showed users were treating the card like any other in their wallet. The firm’s goal is for this seamless spending behavior to become the norm for U.S. users.
