Binance Adds Instant Crypto-To-Mastercard
Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume and user base, has announced a major update for its European customers: the ability to convert crypto to fiat and transfer or withdraw funds directly to an eligible Mastercard with near-real-time availability.
This new functionality — accessible via the “Buy & Sell” feature on both the Binance website and mobile app — is powered by Mastercard Move, the company’s global suite of money movement solutions. Users can now either sell their crypto holdings and send the converted fiat directly to a linked Mastercard, or withdraw their existing fiat balance to the same card.

The update is designed to simplify off-ramping by offering a fast, convenient, and secure method to access funds, adding to existing withdrawal options such as bank transfers.

Thomas Gregory, Binance Vice President of Fiat, highlighted the company’s user-first approach:
“With nearly 300 million registered users, our goal is to make payouts from crypto proceeds faster and simpler. The Sell to Card and Withdraw to Card features significantly enhance the off-ramp process for our European customers.”
Gregory added that Binance will continue collaborating with global payment leaders like Mastercard to expand services, support more fiat currencies, and maintain high standards of regulatory compliance, security, and user protection.
Scott Abrahams, Executive Vice President of Global Partnerships at Mastercard, echoed this vision:
“Mastercard is committed to enabling crypto for everyday transactions. Through our partnership with Binance, we’re excited to deliver a better payout experience for European users with Mastercard Move.”
