The company behind it

Captured UK terms describe Wirex as a platform for supported currencies and cryptoassets, with an option to apply for, manage and load a Wirex payment card. These UK terms do not establish availability in other jurisdictions or confirm that the catalogue entry is equivalent to that card.

Spending with the card

The card is aimed at people who want to spend digital money in daily life. It can be used with phone payment services, so a purchase can be made by tapping a phone rather than handing over a plastic card. A stablecoin and crypto debit card sits at the centre of the offer, and it draws on balances held inside the same platform. Several everyday uses are covered, from shopping to paying bills, all from one set of balances.

Holding digital assets

Balances can include stablecoins and other cryptocurrencies, and the platform offers its own exchange where those assets can be converted. Savings style products are also part of the wider platform, giving holders a place to keep funds beyond spending. Because these balances are digital, their value can move sharply over short periods. Anyone thinking about storing a large amount should first understand how the platform holds assets and what happens to those assets when conditions change.

Moving money across borders

Global transfers are part of the platform, which points to use across several countries. Multi currency accounts let people hold and move different currencies from one place without switching services. Exchange between currencies is handled through the platform's own exchange feature. Because rules on digital assets differ from one country to another, anyone planning to use the service across borders should think about local limits before relying on it.

Who the platform is built for

The platform is pitched at individuals, businesses and developers who want to pay with stablecoins as if they were ordinary money. Individuals can use it for daily spending and transfers, while companies can use the same underlying tools for payments and banking style accounts. Builders who want to add payment features to their own products can connect through the platform's developer tools. The broad mix of audiences is one of the main reasons the platform covers so many kinds of money movement.

Frequently asked questions

What kinds of products sit alongside the cards?+

The platform brings together a crypto wallet, a cryptocurrency exchange, multi currency accounts, savings style products and global transfer options. The cards tie these pieces together, so balances held in several forms can be spent in the same place. Because the offering is broad, many people start with one feature and add others as their needs change.

Can businesses use the same platform as individuals?+

The platform is also aimed at companies, which can use business focused accounts and payment tools. Business clients work through authorised representatives and agree to a separate set of general conditions, so the arrangement differs from a personal account. Anyone running a company should expect a different setup from the one used by individuals.

Does the platform handle money in many currencies?+

The platform covers a wide range of currencies, and people can hold several of them within one set of accounts. Transfers can cross borders, which makes the service useful for people who regularly spend or send money abroad. Its breadth across currencies is one of its most visible features.
