đšMastercard ends its co-branded crypto debit card partnership with Binance in the Middle East and South America, affecting users in Bahrain, Brazil, Colombia, and Argentina. The reason behind this decision remains unclear.đ€
đĄBinance says less than 1% of users in these regions will be impacted, and their accounts remain unaffected. Binance Pay, a contactless crypto payment technology, is still available for users where applicable.đ
đMastercard clarifies that this decision won't impact its other crypto card programs, such as those with Gemini and Nexo. The company had previously expressed interest in expanding crypto card partnerships.đ€
