MetaMask Expands Crypto Card to 13 New Latin American Countries

MetaMask has expanded its crypto card to 13 new Latin American countries, bringing its total footprint to over 50 markets worldwide.

The newly added countries are Chile, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Guyana, Nicaragua, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Suriname, and Uruguay, joining Brazil and Argentina where the card was already live.

The MetaMask Card uses a conversion-at-checkout model, automatically converting crypto from the user's self-custody wallet into local fiat currency at Mastercard-accepting merchants. This feature distinguishes it from exchange-issued cards that require moving funds to custodial platforms.

Users retain control of their keys until the time of purchase and earn 1% cashback in mUSD, MetaMask's stablecoin, with a premium Metal card tier offering 3% on the first $10,000 spent monthly for an annual fee of $199.
