What you can pay for
Why it helps in Mexico
Mexico lives next to the US: Amazon US orders, trips, software and subscriptions charged in dollars. Many Mexican cards convert those purchases from pesos at the bank's rate and, depending on the card, add an international purchase fee. And if you work remotely for companies abroad and get paid in USDT, you can spend it directly.
At supermarkets and stores in Mexico
It is a virtual card: to pay in a physical store, add it to Apple Pay on your iPhone (Apple Pay works in Mexico) and tap your phone on the terminal. It works at supermarkets like Walmart, Soriana, Chedraui, La Comer, OXXO or Liverpool, pharmacies, restaurants and any store that accepts contactless Visa. On Android, if Google Wallet is available on your phone, add it to Google Pay the same way.
Where to get USDT in Mexico
In Mexico you can buy USDT with pesos on Binance P2P or on the exchange you already use.
If you already hold USDT on an exchange or in your wallet, just send it over a supported network: Polygon, BNB Chain, Base or Solana. The balance is held in US dollars.
