Visa has announced a new partnership with Coinbase to offer faster, more flexible fund transfers for crypto trading. This collaboration allows Coinbase users in the U.S. and EU to use eligible Visa debit cards to transfer funds into their accounts instantly via Visa Direct, enhancing their ability to respond to rapid market changes. This integration also enables Coinbase users to purchase crypto directly with Visa debit cards and cash out from Coinbase to a bank account in real-time.

The partnership is part of Visa’s push to bridge traditional and digital finance, making it easier for users to navigate the crypto landscape with reduced delays. Visa Direct’s integration aligns with Coinbase’s goal of increasing economic freedom by allowing users to manage funds quickly, securely, and around the clock. Yanilsa Gonzalez Ore of Visa and Akash Shah of Coinbase both highlight that this feature offers flexibility, security, and control, helping traders optimize their timing and access in a fast-moving market.

Visa and Coinbase will also continue to offer the Coinbase Visa debit card for U.S. customers, reflecting both companies’ commitment to making crypto trading accessible and integrated with everyday finance.
