Cryptocurrency users on Huobi are now able to load their accounts with Spain-issued Visa and Mastercard, according to the exchange.
This has given customers more alternatives when buying cryptocurrencies with low transaction fees in Euros.
According to the announcement, the service is made possible by Giralta’s DLT service provider and Huobi Technology Co Ltd.
Users who pay for crypto assets using Mastercard will be paying a 1.32% Mastercard transaction fee. The service is offered to anyone with Spanish-issued Mastercard or Visa who have enabled international transaction, including those residing outside Spain.
Huobi said the new service is part of the company’s expansion goals to the wider European market with a more affordable payment option.
Earlier, the exchange integrated points of access for users in the UK and European Union who want to enter the cryptocurrency market.
