Wirex and Chimera Wallet have introduced a revolutionary solution for crypto users — a payment card that allows you to use Bitcoin like a regular debit card. The card operates at over 80 million merchants worldwide, opening new possibilities for everyday purchases directly from your Bitcoin wallet.
Full control over your assets through the wallet
The main advantage of the Chimera Card is personal asset management. Unlike traditional services, the card supports self-custody of Bitcoin, allowing users to control their assets directly via blockchain. The balance is managed on a distributed ledger, ensuring transparency and security for every transaction.
Instant conversion and mobile payments
The card offers seamless fiat conversion at the point of sale, meaning you can spend Bitcoin while the merchant receives local currency instantly. The payment wallet is fully integrated with Apple Pay and Google Pay, enabling contactless payments via smartphone anywhere.
When to expect the launch?
Pre-orders are already available with lifetime fee protection. Both physical and virtual cards are scheduled for release in the first quarter of 2026. This means early users will be able to start using their Bitcoin wallet with the card within the coming weeks.
