The crypto space is in pandemonium after MasterCard, a global payment service giant, announced the imminent termination of its services and alliance with the Binance crypto exchange.  

Mastercard To Sever All Ties To Binance

Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, is facing new challenges that could impact its reputation and growth rate. According to reports, Mastercard will discontinue its services on Binance, ending a years-old relationship and crypto cards programs starting Friday, September 22.

The reason for the abrupt termination has not been clarified by Mastercard. Some have attributed the news to the recent regulatory challenges and lawsuits Binance has been up against since this year. 

Binance has refrained from making any comments regarding the reason for the suspension or who initiated the decision first. However, the crypto exchange has reassured users around the globe, stating that their Binance accounts are not affected by the news and they can continue their crypto transactions per usual. 

“Binance accounts around the world are not affected. Where available, users can also shop with crypto and send crypto using Binance Pay, a contactless, borderless, and secure cryptocurrency payment technology designed by Binance,” Binance stated.

Mastercard and Binance have been working together as partners for about four years. Around August 2022, they both joined hands to initiate debit card programs for four major countries, allowing users in Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, and Bahrain to have access to cryptocurrency assets via their Mastercards linked to a cryptocurrency wallet. 

Binance first partnered with Mastercard to launch crypto card payments in Brazil and Latin America at the beginning of 2023. The crypto exchange then made a similar announcement and launched prepaid crypto cards in Argentina in August 2022.

Financial Service Companies Break Away Following SEC Lawsuit

Binance has been in a legal battle with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) since June when the SEC sued the crypto exchange for allegedly offering unregistered securities. The regulator further attempted to freeze all Binance assets stating that the crypto exchange was operating a “web of deception” and filing 13 charges against Binance. 

Since then, Binance has been facing regulatory hurdles and industry challenges with many companies ending year-long partnerships and the price of BNB declining as a result. 

The cryptocurrency exchange has also ended several projects in the course of a month and carried out massive layoffs following the SEC’s Lawsuits.

Recently, Binance shut down all cryptocurrency service operations on its official fiat-to-cryptocurrency payments provider, Binance Connect. The cryptocurrency exchange also discontinued its partnership with Checkout.com, a global payment service, after Checkout’s CEO terminated its contract this month.  

Visa, another payment service giant, also cut ties with Binance in July and stopped supplying co-branded cards with Binance in Europe. 

At the moment, it is unsure what the outcome of the SEC and Binance case would be. However, the results will undoubtedly impact the crypto industry and financial sector.
