Nash launches debit card with crypto round-up feature and IBAN integration

Nash has launched the Nash Debit Card, a new feature that enables users to spend crypto or EUR directly from their Nash account.

To access the Nash Debit Card, users need to have an IBAN account set up within the Nash app. Introduced in Sept. 2023, Nash‘s Euro IBAN accounts are part of the platform’s broader initiative to merge traditional and decentralized finance. The IBAN account is registered under and controlled by the account holder, which Nash claims distinguishes its offering from other crypto IBAN products.

IBAN Capabilities

Nashs IBAN accounts provide all the expected functionalities of a traditional bank account, such as:

• SEPA payments
• Receiving salary remittances
• Sending money to friends
• Paying for expenses

Beyond these, the IBAN accounts also offer features tailored for crypto users, including:

• Making payments by converting crypto to fiat on-the-fly
• Auto-converting salary into token investments
• Seamless transfers between cash and crypto

Nash Debit Card

The introduction of the Nash Debit Card adds a new layer to this offering, allowing users to make everyday payments with their Nash accounts. The card also features a crypto round-up function, which automatically invests spare change from purchases into cryptocurrency, helping users build their portfolios.

Although physical cards are not yet available, virtual cards are issued immediately upon setup and can be added to Curve.com for use with Apple Wallet or Google Wallet.

Spend crypto or EUR directly from your Nash account.

Plus, with crypto round-ups, your spare change is automatically invested in crypto — now you can grow your portfolio as you shop.

Currently, the Nash Debit Card is available to users in Germany, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Italy, the Czech Republic, Austria, Spain, Romania, and Portugal. Additional countries are expected to be added soon.

The launch of the debit card further complements Nash‘s broader ecosystem. The platform’s NEX token, available on Neo N3 and Polygon, offers revenue-sharing dividends for holders. Nash also operates a decentralized exchange with an off-chain matching engine and a decentralized order book, ensuring transparent trading while minimizing trust requirements and enhancing transaction security.
