Does the Bybit Card Work in Argentina?
Based on verified official data as of 20.07.2026; hands-on update coming.
Yes, on both counts. Bybit operates legally in Argentina — it is registered in the CNV's virtual asset service provider (PSAV) registry under No. 48 — and Argentina is one of the official Bybit Card issuance regions. Argentine residents can order the Mastercard, add it to Apple Pay (supported since December 2024), and withdraw up to 95,000 ARS per month from ATMs fee-free. Watch the 7% foreign-exchange fee on non-peso spending.
TL;DR
- Exchange: available and registered with Argentina's CNV as PSAV No. 48.
- Card: issued to Argentine residents; Apple Pay supported since December 2024.
- Fees: 0.9% crypto conversion, 95,000 ARS/month fee-free ATM allowance then 2%, and a steep 7% foreign-exchange fee outside pesos.
Bybit's status in Argentina
Argentina requires anyone professionally offering crypto services to register as a Proveedor de Servicios de Activos Virtuales (PSAV) with the CNV. Bybit holds registration No. 48 and operates as both an exchange and a card operator, so trading, P2P and the card are offered onshore.
The Bybit Card in Argentina is a Mastercard funded from your Bybit Funding Account. Crypto converts to fiat at the moment of payment, and Apple Pay support for Argentine cardholders was announced in December 2024.
What it costs in practice
Issuance carries no annual or monthly fee. Paying from crypto costs a 0.9% conversion fee, and ATM withdrawals are free up to 95,000 ARS per month, then 2% — Bybit's published allowance for Argentina, alongside €100 for EEA cards and 550 BRL for Brazil.
The main caveat is the foreign-exchange fee: 7% for Argentine-issued cards when spending in a currency other than the one funding the card. That is the highest FX rate in Bybit's card program (EEA pays 0.5%), so the card suits peso spending at home far better than travel abroad.
Cashback follows Bybit's tiered program of 2-10% depending on spend tier, per figures verified 20 July 2026.
Frequently asked questions
