Local facts
Why a crypto card matters in Mauritius
If you live in Mauritius, you've probably hit the same wall: FSC regulates VASPs, MUR weak abroad, expat onboarding friction. While banks in Mauritius don't block crypto outright, the path from MUR to a usable spendable balance still involves slow wires and FX margins. The REX Crypto Card cuts that whole chain — your USDT, USDC, BTC and ETH balance becomes a normal Visa, accepted at any tap-to-pay terminal in Port Louis, Curepipe and beyond.
The mechanics are simple. You hold crypto inside the REX Telegram bot (@Rexchangebot), the card is virtual and issued in seconds, and at the moment of payment your crypto is converted to the merchant's currency at live market rates. There is no separate top-up dance, no SEPA waits, no MUR middleman fee chain.
You can add the card to Apple Pay or Google Pay on day one, withdraw Mauritian Rupee at any MCB ATM in Port Louis, or use it abroad in 190+ countries when you travel. The Standard tier ($50 one-time) requires no KYC — your Telegram account is the only credential. The Freedom tier ($125, 0.3% fee, €25k/day limit) is the most popular for active users.
Three reasons REX fits Mauritius
How it works for you
- Open Telegram → tap @Rexchangebot. Registration uses your Telegram account — no separate signup, no KYC for Standard tier.
- Pick a card — Standard ($50, €5k/day), Freedom ($125, €25k/day) or Credit ($5k with prefunded €25k limit). Pay in USDT, USDC, BTC or ETH.
- Add to your wallet — Apple Pay or Google Pay. Tap to pay at any store that takes Visa.
- Withdraw cash at any MCB ATM in Mauritius — or any other Visa-accepting ATM worldwide.

FAQ for Mauritius
Will the REX card work with local banks and stores in Mauritius?
Yes. The card runs on the Visa network, which works alongside your local bank — not against it. You can keep your MUR account at SBM and use REX as a separate crypto-funded spend channel.
Can I withdraw Mauritian Rupee at MCB ATMs?
Yes. Any ATM in Mauritius that accepts Visa — including MCB, SBM, ABSA Mauritius — will pay out in Mauritian Rupee. ATM-owner fees may apply locally; REX itself adds 0.5% on Standard or 0.3% on Freedom.
Is KYC required, and what about local crypto regulations?
Standard and Freedom tiers don't require KYC — you authenticate through Telegram. Local laws are your responsibility; the card is a Visa, not a crypto wallet, so spending it abroad is treated like any other debit purchase. Credit tier requires standard ID verification.
How fast does the card actually arrive, and on which devices?
Virtual card details appear in @Rexchangebot within seconds of payment. Add to Apple Pay (iOS/macOS) or Google Pay (Android, Wear OS, Chromebook) from the bot. Physical plastic is rolling out in the next release.
What happens if my crypto price moves between deposit and purchase?
Conversion happens at the moment of payment using live market rates — not at deposit time. You can hold USDT/USDC to avoid volatility, or BTC/ETH if you want exposure. Live rate quotes are shown inside the bot before you confirm.
