ARQ (DolarApp) Card Overview

ARQ Card (formerly DolarApp) is a Mastercard linked to digital dollar (USDc) and digital euro (EURc) balances. Adults living in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina or Colombia can apply after local identity checks. It suits remote workers paid from abroad and people who often spend in foreign currencies.

You fund the app through local bank payments, then convert to USDc or EURc at the rate shown before confirmation. You spend those balances online or abroad with a virtual or optional physical card. ARQ holds the assets in a custodial account; you do not manage private keys.

The Standard plan and virtual card are free, with no cashback on Standard spending. A physical card typically costs about 4.99 USDc unless waived. Conversion commonly costs around 0.5%, so free card access does not mean free currency exchange. Check the live quote before you fund the account. Paid plans have cashback, but caps and subscription fees affect what you keep.

The main reason to choose ARQ is the combination of US and European payment details with spendable dollar and euro balances in one app. You can receive overseas pay and use the card without a separate US bank account. It makes more sense if you hold and spend foreign currency; frequent conversions back to local money add costs.

ARQ (DolarApp) Card Key features

  • Dollar and euro balances

    You can convert local currency into USDc or EURc and spend those balances at home or abroad. ARQ holds the assets in custody; you do not control private keys, and the balances are not insured bank deposits.

  • Free virtual Mastercard

    ARQ issues a virtual Mastercard at signup with no extra card fee. You can use it online, and ARQ markets card use in more than 180 countries.

  • Mobile wallet payments

    You can add the virtual card to Apple Pay or Google Wallet within minutes after approval.

  • Optional physical card

    You can order a physical Mastercard for store purchases and ATM withdrawals, usually for about 4.99 USDc unless ARQ waives the fee. ATM withdrawals generally cost about 1 percent plus any machine operator fee.

  • Conversion before spending

    You see the exchange rate before you confirm, with local currency conversion commonly costing about 0.5 percent. ARQ markets card spending with no extra foreign transaction fee when you already hold USDc or EURc.

  • Paid plan cashback

    Standard has no cashback; Premium pays about 1 percent on the first 500 USDc of monthly spend, while Prestige pays about 2 percent on that band. Premium has a lower rate after that band, but the supplied data does not state the rate.

  • Plan subscription costs

    Standard is free, while Premium costs about 6.99 USDc per month or about 69 to 69.99 USDc per year. Prestige costs about 199 USDc per year, with spend-based discounts in some markets.

  • US and European payments

    You get personal US account details for inbound ACH payments and European details for SEPA-style payments. Clients or payroll platforms can use these details to pay you.

  • Free ARQ transfers

    You can send money instantly to other ARQ users without a transfer fee.

  • Optional balance earnings

    You can earn a published annual rate on idle USDc or EURc, with approximate rates of 2 percent on Standard and 3.5 percent on Premium; Prestige pays about 4.5 percent. Rates can change, and you do not receive a guaranteed bank rate or deposit insurance.

  • Prestige credit access

    Eligible paid plan users may get a Prestige credit card with a local currency credit line, with a metal card in some markets. You may need to join a waitlist or use balances or investments as collateral.

  • In-app card lock

    You can lock the card in the app. ARQ also lists biometric access and 3DS checks among its security measures.

  • Four supported countries

    You must live in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, or Colombia to apply. ARQ requires applicants to be at least 18 and complete local identity checks.

ARQ (DolarApp) Card Review

Pros

  • You can use the Standard account and virtual Mastercard without an account or virtual card fee.
  • You can spend directly from USDc or EURc balances at home and abroad.
  • You can add the virtual card to Apple Pay or Google Wallet after approval.
  • ARQ quotes the conversion rate before you confirm a currency exchange.
  • You can receive US ACH and European SEPA payments through personal account details.
  • You can send money to other ARQ users instantly for free.
  • On paid Prestige plans, you can earn about 2% cashback on the first 500 USDc of monthly card spend.
  • You can lock your card in the app.

Cons

  • You must live in Mexico, Brazil, Argentina or Colombia to apply.
  • You do not control the private keys to your USDc or EURc balances.
  • Your USDc and EURc balances have no bank deposit insurance.
  • You earn no cashback on Standard card spending.
  • You earn Premium's roughly 1% cashback rate only on the first 500 USDc spent each month.
  • You typically pay about 0.5% to convert local currency into USDc or EURc.
  • You pay about 4.99 USDc for a physical card unless you qualify for a waiver.
  • You generally pay about 1% for ATM withdrawals plus operator fees, though paid plans include free allowances.

Our verdict

I'd carry ARQ for dollar spending if I lived in a supported country. Budget roughly 0.5% conversion cost, plus applicable card and ATM fees. Premium's roughly 6.99 USDc monthly fee exceeds 1% cashback on the first 500 USDc. I'd keep balances small because ARQ controls custody, without deposit insurance. I'd switch if my bank charged less after all fees and spreads.

ARQ (DolarApp) funding

  • Founded by Fernando Terrés (CEO), Zach Garman (CPO), and Álvaro Correa (COO) founded DolarApp in 2021 after all three worked at Revolut on crypto, remittances, and premium products.
  • Seed - Sep 2022 DolarApp raised $5 million in a seed round led by Y Combinator and Kaszek Ventures, with more than 50 angel investors.
  • Round type unspecified - Mar 2026 ARQ announced a $70 million round with Sequoia Capital, Founders Fund, and Kaszek named as investors; the raw data does not identify the lead investors.

Is ARQ (DolarApp) Card safe & legit?

ARQ (formerly DolarApp) appears legitimate: founders Fernando Terrés, Zach Garman and Álvaro Correa previously worked at Revolut, and named backers include Y Combinator, Kaszek, Sequoia Capital and Founders Fund. ARQ runs the app, but the supplied data does not name the legal card issuer; balances are custodial, so you do not control the private keys. I would avoid treating it as a savings bank: USDc and EURc have no deposit insurance, and users report account holds and verification delays, plus card fraud complaints.
