Floki introduced a prepaid crypto card that enables users to pay for daily goods and services using digital assets anywhere Visa and Mastercard are accepted. Both virtual and physical versions of the Floki Card will be available.

This new financial product will be accessible across most European countries. Users can top up their Floki Card directly from crypto wallets, supporting assets from eight blockchain networks, including BTC, ETH, BNB, TON, SOL, and NOT, as well as meme coins DOGS and FLOKI, the HMSTR token from the popular Hamster Kombat app, and stablecoins like USDC, USDT, EURT, and XAUT.

The top-up fee is 2%, while transaction and asset conversion fees are waived. There’s a one-time card issuance fee, and the daily spending limit is set at 5,000 USDT.

Floki cautioned that Mastercard or issuing banks may restrict services in certain countries, regions, or for specific merchants at their discretion. Additionally, some merchants and payment service providers (PSP) may choose not to accept prepaid virtual debit cards.

The Floki project began as the FLOKI meme coin and since evolved into a broader cryptocurrency ecosystem. Its offerings include platforms for asset tokenization, staking, decentralized finance, NFT issuance and trading, among others. The ecosystem is also preparing to launch a Metaverse play-to-earn (P2E) project.

In March 2024, investment giant Franklin Templeton highlighted in a note to investors that, despite lacking utility, meme coins could offer short-term investment advantages.
