Australian Start-Up Hana Wallet Launches Mobile-First, Non-Custodial Crypto Card

Sydney-based DeFi (decentralised finance) startup Hana Wallet has announced the early access launch of its Hana Web3 Debit Mastercard, a virtual pre-paid crypto card that enables Australians to seamlessly spend cryptocurrency through Apple Pay and Google Pay.

Founded by Australian entrepreneur Mark “MJ” Jones, Hana Wallet is reimagining how everyday users interact with digital assets – merging intuitive design with uncompromising user control.

Drawing on nearly a decade in network security at Westpac, MJ built Hana on a foundation of safety-first, user-first principles. Since its launch in 2022, the wallet has been extensively tested by users around the world.

“We built Hana for people who care about ownership, privacy, and ease of use,” said MJ. “This is crypto you can actually use – no exchanges, no banks, no tutorials required.”

Hana Wallet sets itself apart from other crypto payment solutions by operating on a fully non-custodial model, meaning the company never holds user funds

Hana Wallet users can instantly convert Bitcoin, Ethereum, Stellar, and thousands of other tokens straight from their phone to a virtual card – ready to use anywhere Mastercard is accepted.

Combined with Hana’s non-custodial design, it offers crypto users a secure, seamless way to spend – giving you full control.

The Hana Wallet Mastercard is issued by Immersve, a principal member of the Mastercard network. Through its issuing-as-a-service platform, Immersve enables both Web2 and Web3 businesses — including dApps, wallets, and exchanges.

Why Hana Stands Out:

  • Non-Custodial: You hold your crypto. Always.

  • Powered by Mastercard’s Network: Tap to pay globally with Apple Pay or Google Pay.

  • Instant Setup: Add to your mobile wallet and spend in minutes.

  • Multi-Chain Support: Works across Ethereum, SUI, Stellar, ICON – with Bitcoin, Solana, and more on the way.

  • On-Chain direct to Card: Simple top-ups, no exchange accounts.

  • Privacy-First: Robust KYC – with no data selling.

  • Mobile-First UX: Built to feel like your favourite fintech app, not a Web3 maze.

All-in-One Wallet Features

  • Connects to 170+ dApps across 30+ blockchains
  • Supports NFTs, including native SUI NFTs
  • Eligible for airdrops – no missed rewards
  • Earn yield on supported assets
  • Swap tokens cross-chain, in-app
  • Spend crypto directly with the Hana Mastercard

Unlike some crypto platforms, Hana never holds user funds, giving customers full ownership of their crypto at all times while maintaining a privacy-first approach with robust KYC processes.

The virtual card, powered by Mastercard’s global network, can be added to Apple Pay or Google Pay and is ready to use within minutes, enabling Australians to spend crypto seamlessly on everything from coffee to flights.

Hana Wallet also supports multiple blockchains, including Ethereum, SUI, Stellar, and ICON, with Bitcoin, Solana, and more coming soon.

Users can top up their card directly on-chain, without the need for exchange accounts, making the process simple and efficient.

Beyond payments, the Hana app offers a full suite of wallet features. It connects to over 170 dApps across 30+ blockchains, supports NFTs including native SUI NFTs, allows users to claim airdrops, earn yield on supported assets, and swap tokens cross-chain—all within the same mobile interface.

By combining these capabilities with its non-custodial, mobile-first design, Hana Wallet is aiming to deliver a secure, user-friendly way to spend and manage crypto in everyday life.


Hana Wallet has opened early access to its Hana Web3 Debit Mastercard for active users, with Australians able to join the waitlist at hanawallet.io/card

To mark the launch, Hana is offering new users a $5 USD coffee credit to cover their first tap-and-pay transaction, redeemable through Apple Pay or Google Pay.

Activation is designed to be fast and straightforward: users simply download the Hana Wallet app, apply for the card in just a few minutes, top up with crypto from their wallet, and add it to their mobile wallet.
