Coinbase Expands Crypto Debit Card Limits: $5,000 Test Then Potentially $100,000

Coinbase is testing higher spending limits for its crypto debit card users, aiming to boost user satisfaction and transaction volume. Starting October 14, 2025, a $5,000 limit will be tested, with the potential for increasing it to as high as $100,000 by mid-2026. This move responds to user feedback requesting higher spending thresholds, potentially leading to increased activity in supported cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and Dogecoin (DOGE). Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong announced this initiative directly, noting the plan for expanded tiered limits with potential reaching up to $100,000 for those with lower risk profiles by 2026. This expansion is driven by user demand for greater financial flexibility.
