Mastercard pulls Binance, Ripple, PayPal, and 85 crypto companies into a new global partnership program

Mastercard has launched the Crypto Partner Program, a global initiative that brings together over 85 companies, including major names like Binance, Ripple, Circle, PayPal, Crypto.com, Bybit, Gemini, and MoonPay. This is Mastercard's largest program to date in the digital asset space.

🔸 Partners will collaborate directly with Mastercard to design and develop products that combine the capabilities of digital assets with traditional card payment infrastructure. The goal is to integrate the speed and programmability of blockchain into the global commercial payment flow.

🔸 The program focuses on practical applications such as cross-border money transfers, B2B payments, and transaction settlement. Mastercard emphasizes that crypto is moving beyond speculation and into everyday use.

🔸 The partner list also includes blockchain networks Solana, Avalanche, Aptos, Polygon, as well as analytics companies like Elliptic and TRM Labs. This diversity shows that Mastercard is not taking sides but wants to encompass the entire ecosystem.

As the payment giant with billions of cards in circulation globally officially partners with crypto, the line between traditional finance and digital assets is fading.
