AstroPay, a leading payment solutions provider, has recently introduced its new payment solution in the form of the Mastercard AstroPay GOAT Card. This innovative prepaid card is backed by Pomelo’s cutting-edge technology and is accessible in both physical and virtual formats. Users can easily sign up for the card, load funds using various payment methods, and use it for everyday purchases and online transactions.

According to Alejo Sebo, Head of Issuing at AstroPay, the strategic partnership with Pomelo has been instrumental in the development of this new card. The technology and operational expertise of Pomelo have played a crucial role in expanding payment solutions globally. The Mastercard AstroPay GOAT Card has been designed to streamline financial transactions for users by enabling them to manage their spending with ease and have instant access to their funds.
