⚠️ Card application update
Flash Card is permanently closed to new applications; issued Flash Cards were converted to Cloud Cards and balances moved to Total Assets. See Flash Card permanently retired on 30 September 2026.
As of 12 November 2026, Cloud and Boundless cards both support Apple Pay. Flash Card has been permanently retired; its entries in this table are historical records only. Adding a card to Apple Pay does not guarantee payment in every country or region. Transactions remain subject to regional restrictions, merchant terminal compatibility and authorization.

💱 Pricing vs billing currency
Rows marked with $ are priced in USD. At billing they are converted to USDT at the then-current rate and rounded up to 2 decimal places. For example, $1 may show as a USDT amount slightly above 1.00 — the extra is rounding, not an extra charge. Rows already labelled in USDT are charged in USDT directly.
📊 All-in cost of card spending
Applies to spending on MPChat cards (Cloud Card and Boundless Card): online spending follows this, and offline spending has a similar fee structure; ATM cash withdrawals are not included. All-in cost = 0.80% fee + USDT conversion difference (1 USDT usually converts to about 0.993–0.998 USD) + FX (non-USD spending only, charged directly by the card issuer and passed through by MPChat). USD spending is usually about 1% all-in and non-USD spending about 1.8%–2.2%, both subject to actual rates. See MPCard FX Rates and Fee Explainer.
