Binance launches prepaid Mastercard in Argentina

Has anyone actually been able to order or get one of these cards?

you can deposit fiat by SWIFT/SEPA etc to buy crypto and then move crypto from spot to funding wallet. You can change your payment priority in terms of coins in your funding wallet for the binance card transactions.

For Binance EEA visa card (in EUR), the payments are processed by UAB “Finansinės paslaugos „Contis“ in Lithuania.
For Binance Argentina mastercard, the card payments are processed by credencial payments buenos aires
