How to Make Payments with Binance Argentina Card

2022-08-02 05:40
Note: The Binance Card is no longer available. Binance accounts are unaffected and continue to operate as usual.

1. How does the Binance Argentina Card work?

The Binance Argentina Card supports real-time cryptocurrency to fiat currency conversion, enabling you to spend your crypto assets with merchants globally. Funds can be debited from your Spot/Funding Wallet.

2. What is the difference between Funding Wallet and Spot Wallet?

Your Funding Wallet is your default source of funds for Binance Card Transactions. To allow greater access to your funds and offer a seamless experience when using the Binance Card, your Spot Wallet has been automatically enabled as an additional source of funding for making payments. Find out more about using your Spot Wallet as a backup source of funding here.

3. In which order does the Binance Argentina Card use my cryptocurrencies in the Spot/Funding Wallet?

The Binance Argentina Card makes purchases using an aggregated value of your selected cryptocurrencies in your Spot/Funding Wallet, based on the payment priority you set in the Card Dashboard.
Currently, the Binance Argentina Card supports 14 cryptocurrencies, including BUSD, USDT, USDC, BTC, BNB, ETH, ADA, DOT, SOL, MANA, SXP, DAI, SHIB, and MATIC.
You can add, remove, or rearrange the order of the spending cryptocurrencies from [Card Dashboard] - [Payment Priority] - [Edit]. The system will follow the payment priority when you purchase with your Binance Argentina Card. Please note that you must have at least 6 cryptocurrencies in your Payment Priority list, and a maximum of 12 cryptocurrencies can be selected.
An example of how your selected cryptocurrencies will fund your purchases:
Your Payment Priority List: BUSD, BNB, ETC, USDT, BTC, ADA
If the BUSD balance in your Funding Wallet is sufficient, the purchase will be made solely by converting BUSD. If the balance is insufficient, the system will automatically check whether your BUSD and BNB, ETH, USDT, etc. balance can cover the purchase by following the payment priority you set. The same priority will be used for your Spot Wallet if the asset balance in your Funding Wallet is insufficient.

4. Will my payment be declined if the balance of my prioritized cryptocurrency is insufficient?

The transaction should go through if the balance in your Spot/Funding Wallet equals or is greater than the amount the merchant is attempting to charge. Binance will automatically use all available cryptocurrencies in the order you selected or based on the balance left in the Wallets to complete the transaction.

5. Where can I use my Binance Argentina Card?

You can use your Binance Argentina Card anywhere in the world at any Mastercard merchant.
Please note that when you use your Binance Argentina Card to transact in foreign currencies, these transactions will be subject to taxes (ARS and foreign currency exchange). For more details, please refer to Taxes on International Payments with Binance Argentina Card.

6. How do I use the Binance Argentina Card to make transactions online?

You can use the Binance Argentina Card to make transactions online by entering your Card details on the payment page when you checkout.

7. When will the funds be returned to my Funding Wallet if a transaction is declined?

If a transaction is declined after the funds were deducted from your Funding Wallet, e.g., due to network issues that are out of Binance’s control, your funds will be returned to your Funding Wallet (in BUSD) within 2 hours.

8. Can I pay for products and services in foreign currency?

Your card is denominated in ARS. If you make a purchase or an ATM withdrawal in any other currency, we will convert the amount of the transaction into ARS using the exchange rate set by Mastercard on the day they process the transaction. Please note that this conversion rate may differ from the conversion rate on the actual date of the transaction.
As the Binance Argentina Card is issued within the jurisdiction of Argentina and held by Argentine residents, official taxes apply when you make payments to any physical or virtual merchant outside Argentina and those payments are converted into ARS for billing. For more details, please refer to Taxes on International Payments with Binance Argentina Card.

9. Can I transfer funds to the Binance Argentina Card from third-party platforms?

You cannot top up your Binance Argentina Card from other external platforms. Funds sent directly from third-party platforms will not be credited to your Binance Argentina Card balance and might result in the loss of these funds.
