Dogecoin gets a mainstream push as Revolut unveils physical payment card

Revolut is stepping up efforts to integrate Dogecoin into everyday payments with the launch of a branded physical debit card tied to the cryptocurrency.

The U.K.-based fintech said the card will debut in the United Kingdom and across the European Union, excluding Hungary, Switzerland, and Portugal. It will be accepted anywhere Visa and Mastercard are supported, allowing users to spend Dogecoin at standard retail points.

According to the company, transactions will not carry additional exchange fees and will be processed at the market rate at the time of purchase. However, Revolut noted that using crypto for payments could trigger tax obligations depending on local regulations.

The rollout comes as competition intensifies among crypto platforms to connect digital assets with traditional payment systems. Firms such as Coinbase and Crypto.com have been expanding similar card programs, aiming to make crypto more accessible for daily use.

The broader push reflects a shift in industry focus toward real-world utility. By enabling spending through established payment networks, companies are working to position cryptocurrencies as practical payment tools rather than purely speculative assets.

Revolut has continued to build out its crypto ecosystem in parallel. In 2025, it added Polygon support, unlocking features such as remittances, staking POL tokens, and in-app crypto payments.

The Dogecoin card also coincides with the company’s expanding banking ambitions. Revolut secured approval in March to launch a fully licensed bank in the U.K. and has applied for a banking license in the United States as it looks to scale its global financial services footprint.
