WeLab Bank Launches Multi-Currency Debit Card with Mastercard

WeLab Bank has partnered with Mastercard to launch the WeLab Global Wallet Debit Card, becoming the first digital bank in Hong Kong to offer a multi-currency debit card.

The card allows customers to exchange up to 11 major currencies through the WeLab Bank App at cost price, with zero mark-up or hidden fees. Customers can also lock in their preferred foreign exchange (FX) rates.

Customers using the card at Mastercard merchants worldwide can spend in ten major foreign currencies. They do not have to pay the standard 1.95% foreign currency transaction fee.

A 0.4% cash rebate applies to all global spending. Cardholders can also access local currency from JETCO ATMs in Hong Kong and the Mastercard ATM network abroad, with withdrawals deducted from the corresponding foreign currency account.

Since its debut in December 2025, the card has seen overseas spending triple within a month.

WeLab Bank’s AI-powered rate comparison engine benchmarks FX rates against major Hong Kong banks, ensuring the “Best Rate Guarantee” for customers.

Tat Lee, Chief Executive of WeLab Bank, said:

XRP ETF Becomes 2025’s Biggest U.S. Fund Launch

The post XRP ETF Becomes 2025’s Biggest U.S. Fund Launch appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Altcoins 19 September 2025 | 17:07 Wall Street’s appetite for crypto-based funds was on full display this week as Rex-Osprey brought two new products to market. The firm’s XRP ETF (XRPR) smashed records on its first day, drawing in more than $37 million in trades and instantly becoming the most successful U.S. ETF debut of 2025. Trading was fast and furious from the opening bell, with activity surpassing $24 million in under two hours. Analysts noted that no crypto futures ETF introduced this year came close to that pace, pointing to a sharp rise in demand for regulated exposure to alternative digital assets. Not to be overshadowed, Rex-Osprey’s Dogecoin ETF (DOJE) also made a splash. Its first-hour tally of $6 million in volume pushed it toward a $17 million close, placing it among the year’s five strongest ETF launches across all asset classes. A Different Regulatory Path Unlike last year’s spot Bitcoin and Ethereum funds, which were registered under the Securities Act of 1933, Rex-Osprey chose a different playbook. Both of its new products are tied to Cayman Islands subsidiaries and operate under the Investment Company Act of 1940. This structure shows how issuers are experimenting with multiple regulatory routes to bring altcoins into mainstream finance. Bloomberg’s Eric Balchunas called the surge in activity “a good omen” for the wave of altcoin ETFs expected later in the year, suggesting that investor interest is only just beginning. Token Prices Lag Behind The rush into ETFs didn’t lift the coins themselves. XRP slipped to $3.02, down 3% on the day, and has been stuck in a narrow band around the $3 mark all week. Dogecoin also eased, sliding 2% to $0.2735 after briefly touching a seven-month peak of $0.2879. The divergence highlights an emerging trend in crypto markets: while institutions appear eager…
