Pionex: Card Drives 20% Retention Rise in Asia

Pionex Pay reports 30% of users as daily active with retention up 20% after card launch, underscoring Asia's distinct crypto card model. The card functions as a retention loop on a high-activity trading platform, pulling idle balances into spend via deep ties to Alipay, WeChat Pay and Line Pay. This placement inside existing wallets creates distribution scale absent in US interchange battles. Stablecoin payment volume hit $390B annualized per the McKinsey Artemis report 2025, yet card-linked spend reached only $4.5B, showing placement as the key unlock for Pionex crypto card retention growth.
