MetaMask Card is currently in a pilot phase and is only available to MetaMask users in the UK, the EEA, Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, and the US (excluding New York and Vermont). We’re working hard to bring MetaMask Card to more people; stay tuned for updates!
MetaMask has partnered with Crypto Life and Mastercard to provide MetaMask Card, a seamless, secure way to control and spend your tokens.
The MetaMask Card homepage is a website managed by Crypto Life. As with all links, carefully verify that you are accessing the correct site.
To securely access the MetaMask Card site, open MetaMask Portfolio → click ‘Card’ on the left-hand navigation menu → ‘Get started’.
Security
MetaMask Card leverages the security of decentralized finance by quickly and safely executing transactions on the Linea network. As soon as you tap your card, MetaMask Card converts accessible tokens into fiat and executes the transaction.
As MetaMask is a self-custodial wallet, MetaMask Card does not have custody over your tokens. Instead, you decide which tokens MetaMask Card can draw upon, and the card will never go over your spending cap.
Reporting suspicious activity
If you notice suspicious activity on your card, you should report this to Crypto Life at [email protected]. In the meantime, freeze your card.
Reporting a stolen card
If you believe your card details have been stolen, you should freeze your card as soon as possible. Then, send a report to Crypto Life at [email protected].
What do I do if my MetaMask wallet is compromised?
If you believe the MetaMask wallet associated with your MetaMask Card has been compromised, follow the steps in this guide as soon as possible.
Once you've sent your funds to a new wallet, you can add the account to your card as a new spending limit.
A compromised MetaMask wallet associated with your MetaMask Card will not impact the security of your card. The compromised wallet and your card are separate entities, and only associated through a spending limit. Anyone with access to the compromised wallet will not be able to spend from your card.
If you believe your card details have been stolen, you should freeze your card as soon as possible. Then, send a report to Crypto Life at [email protected].
Privacy
Crypto Life KYC
Because the MetaMask Card is bridging DeFi and traditional finance, you need to fill out KYC (Know Your Customer) while setting up your MetaMask Card. Crypto Life manages this step and will process any personal information you provide to them in accordance with their Privacy Policy. This information allows Crypto Life to confirm that you are located in an authorized country and are eligible for a MetaMask Card.
MetaMask Card takes your privacy very seriously; Crypto Life uses leading software systems to collect and store your information. Your personal information will never be sold, and MetaMask will not have access to any of the personal details you provide to Crypto Life.
