residents early next year. Separately, Plutus is obtaining the necessary licenses to operate the Rewards and DEX component of its services across numerous states. If you live in the U.S., enter your email address below to join our waitlist and receive early access to a Plutus Card.

Join United States Waitlist > Plutus is releasing a new and improved version of the PlutusDEX on mobile — this will go live before 10th October. EEA customers will be able to swap crypto and fiat via the mobile app. All PlutusDEX screens on mobile have been revamped so you can enjoy a slicker user experience.

Customers will be able to connect their personal crypto wallet to the Plutus mobile app without revealing their seed phrase or private keys. This is more secure for our customers and further aligns us with our non-custodial values. The mobile PlutusDEX will support 170+ wallets including MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Ledger Live, MyEtherWallet, Rainbow, Argon, and more!

Note:Our application for a UK Crypto-asset License, which will allow Plutus to re-enable the PlutusDEX in the UK, remains under review.

This includes choosing a plan, upgrading, and downgrading. Customers can now manage their Perks from within the web application. This includes selecting your Perks and arranging them in priority order.

The team is redesigning the onboarding journey, removing many of the time-consuming steps so new customers can enjoy a faster and smoother sign-up process. This will go live in mid-October. Currently, Ethereum network fees are significantly lower than they were previously and the majority of our customers can transfer PLU without friction.

As a result, we prioritised higher-impact items such as card top-up improvements which benefited a larger portion of our user base. Our Polygon Layer-2 solution will move into the first half of Q4 2022. We have reduced PLU withdrawal fees from £/€15 to £/€5 to ensure customers can transfer PLU seamlessly from the app in the meantime.

Over the last quarter, we have been aggressively hiring team leaders and engineers to continue delivering exciting new features at speed — this includes customer service agents across various time zones to offer 24/7 support. Plutus has also scaled its marketing efforts with a waitlist of 50,000+ users to receive cards in October, and a separate U.S. waitlist to be onboarded in Q1 2023.

Plutus will be improving its fee structure including reduced FX fees, withdrawal fees, free card declines, free ATM declines, and more. This will take effect on 21st November. On 5th October 2022 at 13:00 BST, our product team will be answering all of your questions in a live AMA on Reddit Talks.
