Our verdict
Punto Pago pairs a debit card with an $0 annual fee and a 0% currency conversion fee, so everyday spending carries almost no cost. Cashback of up to 5% cashback on its credit card adds a reason to route purchases through it, and Mastercard acceptance means it works well for day to day money.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Annual fee of $0 keeps the running cost at nothing
- Currency conversion fee of 0% makes it a practical choice for spending abroad
- Cashback of up to 5% cashback on the credit card pays for spending
- The debit card runs on the Mastercard network, so acceptance is broad
Cons
- Support runs on email only, with no phone or chat line listed
- Rewards come in one form: cashback, so points or miles earners get nothing extra
Who it suits
- Households in Panama paying at Mastercard merchants at home and abroad
- Anyone who swaps between currencies and wants a 0% conversion fee
- Card users who want a simple Mastercard rather than a points scheme
Who should look elsewhere
- Points or frequent flyer collectors, since rewards are cashback only
- Anyone who needs help by phone, as support is listed as email
The company behind it
Punto Pago is issued by Punto Pago S.A., headquartered in Panama. It operates as a debit card provider, and the rewards element sits on its credit card rather than the debit offering. Support is listed as email only, so anyone weighing this against a provider offering phone or chat assistance should factor that into the choice.

Frequently asked questions
What does a Punto Pago card cost to hold?+
The annual fee is $0, so there is nothing to pay for keeping the account open. That puts it at the cheaper end of the cards compared here, where annual fees commonly run into double figures.
What does it cost to spend in another currency?+
The currency conversion fee is 0%. That makes the card a straightforward option for anyone who pays in a currency other than the one they hold, since the usual conversion charge does not apply.
Is the card a debit card or a credit card?+
Both are offered. The debit card draws on the balance in the account, while the rewards feature sits on a separate credit card. Which one suits you depends on whether you want to spend held money or borrow.
What rewards does Punto Pago offer?+
The rewards are paid as cashback, at a rate of up to 5% cashback on the credit card. There is no points or miles scheme listed, so the reward is a straightforward reduction in what you spend rather than anything redeemable.
Which network does the card run on?+
The card runs on the Mastercard network, so it is accepted wherever Mastercard is taken, at home and abroad. Combined with the 0% conversion fee, it suits spending on a trip without the usual surcharge.
How can I get help with my account?+
Support is listed as email. There is no phone or live chat option among the listed channels, so a blocked card or a disputed payment has to be handled in writing.
Who issues the card?+
The card comes from Punto Pago S.A., which is also the legal entity behind the account. The company is based in Panama, and the account is issued in that market rather than in the UK or Europe.
What kind of cardholder suits Punto Pago?+
It suits everyday spending where fee levels matter most: an annual fee of $0, a currency conversion fee of 0%, and cashback of up to 5% cashback on the credit card. Anyone earning points or miles, or who relies on phone support, should look elsewhere.
