New Coinbase Feature to Allow Instant Crypto Transfers via Visa

Coinbase and Visa have teamed up to offer near-instant crypto deposits for users with eligible Visa debit cards in the U.S. and European Union. The feature brings a new level of convenience for customers, allowing real-time fund transfers into Coinbase accounts, something previously unavailable.

The new real-time transfer capability adds a unique layer of accessibility and speed for Coinbase users. By supporting instant deposits, Visa and Coinbase aim to streamline crypto access, making it easier for individuals in supported regions to participate actively in the crypto market.

Millions already use debit cards with Coinbase, but this Visa feature introduces faster transactions for eligible cardholders. With the Visa debit card, customers can deposit, buy, and sell crypto directly through Coinbase, simplifying the process for those less familiar with digital assets.

Yanilsa Gonzalez Ore, Head of Visa Direct, North America, expressed excitement about the partnership, saying it enables users to “take advantage of trading opportunities day and night.” Visa’s integration with Coinbase lets users transfer money at their convenience, providing a flexible and user-friendly approach to crypto investments.
