This initiative with Unbanked is to testament to that as we work to accelerate the issuance of crypto cards and empower choice in the market, knowing that it comes with the safety, security and protections they would expect from our network.” Christian Rau, Senior Vice President Fintech and Crypto Enablement for Mastercard Europe.

Unbanked has worked with the Litecoin Foundation to offer the Litecoin Card to residents of the United States for more than two years. With the Unbanked and Mastercard partnership, the Litecoin Card program will be made available to residents in the UK and Europe – reaching approximately 84% of Europe’s population. Litecoin is one of the oldest and most used cryptocurrencies on a global scale and was specifically designed to provide fast, secure, and low-cost payments by leveraging the unique properties of blockchain technology.
