Wirex, a bitcoin and crypto wallet service announced today a new partnership with payments processing technology provider i2c to launch a cryptocurrency-backed prepaid card in the United States. The new card will allow American users to instantly convert their Bitcoin, XRP, Ethereum or Litecoin to spend in stores, bars, and restaurants, transport, online or withdraw from ATMs.

The partnership will seek to expand upon the existing Wirex Visa card program in the EU, where it is one of a few companies to have a fully-functioning card that allows direct spending of crypto on a card. The company also recently became a licensed e-money institution under UK laws and regulation.

The Wirex prepaid card leverages i2c’s payments processing platform, which allows card issuers to quickly create and scale high-value payment and digital commerce solutions on a single global SaaS platform with industry-leading reliability and security. i2c’s payments processing technology supports advanced payment features and functionality such as multi-currency and multi-purse technology. It also offers card controls that give cardholders more options when implementing budgets, spending controls, and advanced real-time alerts.
