Overview

The Nexo Card is a dual-mode crypto card on the Mastercard network issued by Nexo, the digital assets wealth platform that has been operating since 2018 and now manages over $7 billion in assets. The card is unique in letting cardholders switch between Credit Mode and Debit Mode with a single tap inside the Nexo app — making it both a crypto debit card and a crypto credit card in one.

In Credit Mode, you borrow against your deposited crypto via a Nexo Credit Line (interest starting from 1.9% APR) so you can spend without selling. Your crypto stays deposited and continues earning interest while serving as collateral, and you earn up to 2% crypto cashback on every purchase. Repayment is fully flexible — no fixed schedule, no credit checks.

In Debit Mode, you spend your digital assets directly: stablecoins, crypto and FiatX assets like EURx, USDx and GBPx. You can prioritise which assets to spend first with a simple drag-and-drop, and Nexo handles the crypto-to-fiat conversion at the moment of purchase.

Both modes are accepted at over 100 million merchants globally wherever Mastercard is accepted. The card supports Apple Pay and Google Pay for tap-to-pay, offers up to €2,000 / £1,800 in free ATM withdrawals per month, and charges no monthly, annual or inactivity card fees. The virtual card is activated instantly — no waiting for delivery.

Integrated with the Nexo ecosystem

As a Nexo product, the card plugs directly into the broader Nexo wealth platform:

  • Flexible Savings — earn up to 13% APY on your unspent balance, paid out daily.
  • Credit Line — borrow against your crypto without selling.
  • Exchange — swap over 100 digital assets with a tap.
  • Loyalty Program — portfolio balance above $5,000 unlocks cashback, lower borrowing rates and free ATM perks; higher tiers available for NEXO token holders. New users get Nexo's Platinum tier on arrival for 30 days.
  • Nexo Private — clients with $100,000 in assets access higher card spending limits, custom terms and a dedicated relationship manager.

Track record & security

Nexo is one of the longest-running digital asset lending platforms, having operated since 2018 with $7+ billion in assets under management and 24/7 personalized client care. Industry-grade custody, instant card freezes, security spending controls and biometic locks keep the card experience smooth and secure. Multiple industry awards include Digital Banker, Fintech Breakthrough 2024 & 2025, and INATBA 2025 recognitions.

Nexo is unusual in offering a credit mode that borrows against your holdings, so the closest comparisons are the ether.fi Cash Card and the Kraken Card for European holders who want to spend without selling. Both feature in our Best Crypto Cards round-up.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Nexo Card and how does it work?

The Nexo Card is a dual-mode crypto card that lets you switch between Credit Mode and Debit Mode with one tap. In Credit Mode you borrow against your crypto via a Nexo Credit Line (from 1.9% APR) so you can spend without selling — you keep your crypto, it stays as collateral earning interest, and you earn up to 2% crypto cashback on every purchase. In Debit Mode you spend your crypto directly, with Nexo handling the crypto-to-fiat conversion at the moment of purchase. The card is accepted at over 100M merchants worldwide where Mastercard is accepted.

What is Credit Mode and how does the crypto-backed credit line work?

In Credit Mode you borrow funds against your deposited crypto using a Nexo Credit Line — interest rates start from 1.9% APR. Repayment is fully flexible with no fixed schedule and no credit checks. Your crypto stays deposited and continues earning up to 13% APY interest while serving as collateral. You also earn up to 2% crypto cashback on every purchase made in Credit Mode.

What is Debit Mode and which assets can I spend?

In Debit Mode the card spends your digital assets directly. You can spend stablecoins, crypto and FiatX assets (EURx, USDx, GBPx). You can prioritise which assets to spend first using a drag-and-drop order in the Nexo app, and Nexo handles the crypto-to-fiat conversion automatically at the moment of purchase.

How does the Nexo Card cashback work?

You earn up to 2% crypto cashback on every purchase made in Credit Mode. Cashback is paid in crypto and credited to your Nexo account. The top 2% rate and other perks are unlocked through Nexo's Loyalty Program, which requires a portfolio balance above $5,000 (and higher tiers require holding NEXO token). New users get Nexo's best Platinum tier on arrival for 30 days.

What are the fees and limits?

Cardholders enjoy up to €2,000 / £1,800 in free ATM withdrawals per month, with no monthly, annual, or inactivity card fees. There are no card top-up fees. The card is accepted at over 100M merchants worldwide (everywhere Mastercard is accepted), supports Apple Pay and Google Pay for tap-to-pay, and offers instant virtual card activation with no waiting for delivery.

How does the daily interest work on the Nexo Card balance?

You earn up to 13% APY (annualised, variable) interest per year on your unspent balance, paid out daily. In Credit Mode, the crypto you pledge as collateral continues to earn interest on the portion not used as collateral — meaning you can spend via credit while your portfolio keeps growing in the background.

Where is the Nexo Card available and how do I apply?

The Nexo Card is available to residents of the EEA and the UK. New customers can sign up via the Nexo app or platform.nexo.com, complete account verification, and activate the virtual card instantly — there is no wait for delivery. A physical card is also available. Nexo exited the US market in 2023, so the Nexo Card is not available to US residents.

Is the Nexo Card self-custodial?

No. Nexo is a custodial platform — Nexo holds custody of your crypto on your behalf (with industry-grade custody, biometic locks, instant card freezes and spending controls in the app). This is different from a self-custodial card like the MetaMask Card, where your crypto stays in your own wallet until the moment of payment.
