Card overview

Nexo's Mastercard is live, but plastic is gated: the virtual card needs as little as $50 in your Nexo account, while the physical card is orderable again only with a portfolio of at least $5,000, Gold or Platinum loyalty tier and an active virtual card (the first one is free). It is custodial. Funds sit in your Nexo balance, and the card either spends them directly (Debit Mode) or borrows against your crypto collateral (Credit Mode), toggled with one tap on the same Mastercard. That toggle is the real selling point.

No monthly, annual, or inactivity fees, and both virtual activation and physical shipping cost nothing. FX is set by the currency, not the place: nothing when the merchant charges in your card currency, 0.2% weekday and 0.7% weekend on other EEA, UK and Swiss currencies, and 2% weekday and 2.5% weekend on everything else. There is no free FX allowance any more: the fee page says all FX transactions are subject to fees.

To earn cashback at all you need a $5,000 portfolio to join the Loyalty Program; rewards then accrue only on Credit Mode spend, and the headline 2% demands Platinum tier: 10% of your portfolio held in Nexo's own NEXO token. Base tier pays 0.5% NEXO / 0.1% BTC. UK holders earn no cashback at all under FCA rules. The card is sold in the EEA, Andorra, Monaco and the UK, plus Argentina since 8 July 2026 under its own cashback rules, and never in the US.

Best fit
existing Nexo borrowers in the EEA with $5,000-plus who want to spend against collateral without selling
Wrong card if
you are in the US, in the UK chasing cashback, or under $5k
