Overview
Moon provides virtual Visa cards that let people spend cryptocurrency anywhere Visa is accepted. It converts crypto assets (Bitcoin on-chain or via Lightning, Ether, USDC, USDT) into a Visa balance, enabling purchases at millions of merchants; users choose 1X single-use cards or X reloadable cards for higher limits and subscriptions. The service is non-custodial, so Moon does not hold user funds and shields personal data from merchants. Its goal is to make cryptocurrency a practical daily payment method by bridging crypto to fiat with private, easy-to-use card solutions.
