LATEST: Binance Resumes Crypto Purchases Using Mastercard Payments

Binance, the leading global cryptocurrency exchange, has reactivated the option for users to buy cryptocurrencies using Mastercard. This move marks a significant step for smooth financial operations, allowing transactions up to €5,000 or approximately $5,440, and up to $20,000 for U.S. dollar transactions. The company is also planning to integrate more regulated fiat payment options to simplify crypto purchases further.

Following an intensive compliance review, Mastercard has decided to reinstate its services for Binance, reflecting confidence in the exchange’s enhanced controls and processes. This development comes after a series of regulatory challenges and the recent discontinuation of Binance’s Visa card services in the European Economic Area.

Despite past regulatory hurdles, including allegations by the SEC and other legal challenges against its founder, Binance’s latest partnership with Mastercard signals a potentially stabilizing period for the platform and its users, promoting broader accessibility to cryptocurrencies.
