Description.
Kulipa delivers a card-as-a-service platform specifically for the crypto/web3 ecosystem. Its infrastructure allows wallet and app partners to launch custom branded debit and prepaid cards that:
- Enable on-chain settlement of stablecoins (e.g., USDC and Paxos) directly from users’ wallets.
- Convert crypto to fiat behind the scenes so merchants don’t need to accept crypto.
- Are accepted globally wherever Visa & Mastercard are supported (37M+ locations in 210+ countries).
- Integrate with mobile wallets like Apple Pay® and Google Pay™.
Kulipa’s offering is API-first, allowing partners to build the card experience natively inside their apps and launch in a matter of weeks.
