The bank also decides whether to approve each application.<\/p>\n<p>Applicants must hold a HashKey account, live in Hong Kong and be at least 18 years old. The application starts in the HashKey mobile app before redirecting users to Shanghai Commercial Bank\u2019s app. The card also lights up during contactless payments.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>HashKey targets practical digital asset use<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>HashKey Exchange Business Group CEO Haiyang Ru said the partnership seeks to expand regulated digital asset use beyond trading. He said the company wants to move \u201cbeyond speculative trading\u201d by linking digital assets with broader financial services.<\/p>\n<p>Visa Hong Kong and Macau general manager Paulina Leong said the companies aim to connect digital asset services with familiar payment methods. Visa supplies the payment network, while the bank and HashKey manage the card, rewards and customer accounts under their separate regulated roles.<\/p>\n<p>The product follows an <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/group.hashkey.com\/en\/newsroom\/hashkey-exchange-and-shanghai-commercial-bankjoin-forces-in-effort-to-launch-one-of-asias-first-ban\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">October 2025 announcement<\/a> that Shanghai Commercial Bank and HashKey planned to develop a co-branded Visa card. The July launch moves that plan into a product open for applications by eligible exchange members.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Launch joins Asia\u2019s growing crypto rewards card market<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>HashKey was among the first exchanges licensed to serve retail crypto customers in Hong Kong. As reported by crypto.news, the platform began licensed retail operations in August 2023 and supports direct bank transfers in Hong Kong dollars and U.S. dollars.<\/p>\n<p>The card arrives as HashKey expands as a publicly listed digital asset company. In June, its board approved a share repurchase plan worth up to HK$100 million after its stock rose from recent lows.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere, other Asian finance groups have also linked card spending with digital asset rewards. As previously reported, SBI and Visa introduced a Japanese credit card program tied to Bitcoin, Ether and XRP rewards in May.<\/p>\n<p>The HashKey program uses a different structure. Customers receive HKD-denominated vouchers and choose whether to use them for crypto purchases. That model keeps the credit card, reward conversion and exchange transaction as separate steps, rather than paying cryptocurrency directly at checkout.<\/p>\n<p>    <!-- .cn-block-related-link --><\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HashKey Exchange, Shanghai Commercial Bank and Visa launched a co-branded credit card in Hong Kong.\u00a0 Summary HashKey members can earn up to 4% rewards, converted monthly into HKD cash vouchers&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":31689,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-34365","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cryptocurrency"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34365","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34365"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34365\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":34366,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/34365\/revisions\/34366"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34365"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=34365"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bitunikey.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=34365"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
