The use of crypto cards has increased by 500%, reaching $600 million per month, with Visa dominating 90% of the market share.

Crypto card usage volume has surged 500% since September 2024, reaching around $600 million per month.
Visa processes 90% of these on-chain transactions.

This data shows a sharp shift in how stablecoins reach consumers, from just being wallet balances to everyday payment tools.
Stablecoin-linked card programs are now among the fastest-growing businesses on public blockchains.

Visa Becomes the Mainstay for Stablecoin Card Growth

Visa is building its dominance through partnerships with native crypto infrastructure providers, reducing reliance on traditional bank sponsors.

This strategy is similar to the launch of its stablecoin Bridge card, which will expand into various new regions through 2026.

On the other hand, partner programs like Wirex channel stablecoin payments to billions of cards via Visa Direct.
In March, Visa processed about 97% of crypto card volume.

Jupiter and Distribution Strategy

Newcomers are also expanding the cashback model.
One example is Jupiter’s Visa card based on Solana.
This product offers 4% to 10% cashback depending on the tier, and recorded a 660% monthly volume growth in April.
The rewards are given in stablecoins, not airline points.

Justin Sun, founder of Tron, sees this trend as the next phase of stablecoin distribution.
His comments refer to previous stablecoin policy remarks.

“Crypto cards are not just a trend.
They are the next evolution of distribution.
Stablecoins have advanced from wallets to daily spending globally.
The next phase is seamless access.
Digital assets are directly integrated into how people pay, anywhere,” Justin Sun explained.

Meanwhile, industry commentator Marty Party predicts that Visa’s stablecoin cards available on Apple Pay and Android Tap will attract 10 million users.
He believes this will happen before businesses adopt native stablecoin settlement.

The figures above show that stablecoins are competing to fill consumer wallets, not just competing over on-chain liquidity.

Whether competing networks can match Visa’s reach may determine if the surge in debit card usage becomes a primary gateway into crypto.
