US availability is tighter than elsewhere: cards must work with a US-licensed issuer, and some exclude specific states (Hawaii and New York come up often). Most US options are custodial cards from established, regulated exchanges.
Two US-specific things to watch
- Tax. In the US, spending crypto is generally a taxable event — each purchase can be a disposal. Keep records.
- State availability. Confirm the card works in your state before applying.
We only list a card here if the issuer explicitly names this region. Some cards marketed as “global” may also work here — check the card’s own page and the issuer’s terms before applying.
