Visa and Mercuryo make cashing out crypto a matter of minutes

26 ianuarie 2026

No need to move funds between wallets, exchanges, and banks. No bank account details required. Just a Visa card number. Funds are sent to your Visa card in minutes, not days.

Global payments infrastructure platform Mercuryo and Visa, a world leader in digital payments, have announced a partnership that will provide fast and user-friendly crypto-to-fiat global off-ramping via Visa Direct, Visa’s real-time payments platform. „The partnership is enabling faster, easier, and more secure crypto transfers via Visa Direct. No more waiting for traditional bank processing or sharing bank account details. Visa card number is all it takes.” – according to the press release.

Mercuryo’s eligible users can now convert digital token holdings into fiat on a Visa debit or credit card in near real-time, at low cost. All without having to leave their preferred wallets and exchanges. The partnership minimizes the traditional delays associated with cashing out from digital assets.

„With this feature, millions of users can convert crypto to fiat in a simple, intuitive way, without leaving the platforms they already trust. It makes cross-border payouts faster, reduces delays, and helps people access their funds quickly in their local currencies. By tapping into Visa Direct’s global network, we take one step closer to mass Web3 adoption.” – Mercuryo said.

By leveraging Visa Direct’s capabilities, Mercuryo is not only making converting to fiat faster, simpler, and more accessible than ever—it’s building bridges between the crypto space and the traditional financial system. This integration empowers users to seamlessly convert digital assets into fiat in near real time, creating a more connected and convenient payment experience”, said Anastasia Serikova, Head of Visa Direct, Europe.
