Mastercard launches new crypto partner programme
Find out more about Mastercard's new crypto partner programme, bringing together over 85 crypto-native companies.
Mastercard has created a crypto partner programme, a global initiative to bring together more than 85 crypto‑native companies, payments providers and financial institutions.
Through the programme, participants will collaborate with Mastercard teams on future products and services, mainly focused on offerings that will combine the speed and programmability of digital assets with established card rails and global commerce flows.
By creating a shared framework for collaboration, the programme helps align innovation across the ecosystem while supporting consistent standards and responsible growth.
The programme will be focused on practical execution, with the firms collaborating on translating technical innovation into scalable, compliant use cases that can operate across markets and integrate seamlessly into everyday commerce.
Partners include: Binance, BitGo, Canton, Circle, Elliptic, Fireblocks, Nethermind, OKX, PayPal, Ripple, Solana, Taurus, Worldpay and many others.
The payments platform revealed its 360-degree approach to streamlining stablecoin transactions in April, through partnerships with OKX and Nuvei.
