New Era Visionary Group, the official telecom operator and partner of FC Barcelona, announces technology infrastructure partnerships with Wirex, Crossmint, and the Stellar Development Foundation for Barça Mobile.
These collaborations will support the development of the digital wallet, an integrated feature of the Barça Mobile app, designed to complement its core mobile services with payments, rewards, and future digital utility for Barça Mobile subscribers around the world.
Rather than a standalone product, the wallet will form part of the broader Barça Mobile app experience. It is intended to help subscribers manage digital services in one place, starting with connectivity and extending to payments, loyalty benefits, travel, and future cross-border digital services.
Building the Infrastructure for a Global Mobile Ecosystem
New Era Visionary Group is working with Wirex, Crossmint, and Stellar Foundation to support the next phase of Barça Mobile’s development and to ensure that the digital wallet infrastructure is scalable, secure, and ready for international use.
Wirex will support the payment and card infrastructure layer, helping enable future wallet-linked payment experiences within the Barça Mobile ecosystem. Wirex is a principal member of both Visa and Mastercard and the world’s fastest-growing infrastructure provider, and will deliver the payment and card infrastructure layer, enabling users to spend at 80+ million merchants worldwide.
Crossmint will provide wallet infrastructure and user onboarding technology, helping Barça Mobile deliver a secure, scalable, and user-friendly wallet experience. With strong developer-focused infrastructure and enterprise-grade wallet capabilities, Crossmint brings the technology needed to simplify onboarding and make wallet access easier for Barça
Mobile Subscribers
The Stellar network will serve as the blockchain network layer for the wallet infrastructure, supporting fast and cost-efficient digital transactions and cross-border value transfer capabilities. Through its open and globally focused ecosystem, the Stellar network brings the experience and infrastructure needed to support efficient value movement at international scale.
Together, these partners will help Barça Mobile strengthen its connectivity-first platform, enriching its core telecom service with travel, payments, and subscriber rewards, delivered as value-added services within the app.
Serving Barça Mobile Users Globally
The digital wallet is designed for Barça Mobile users worldwide, including FC Barcelona fans, international travelers, mobile subscribers, and users seeking simple access to connectivity and the digital services built around it.
Through one unified interface, users will be able to access and manage mobile services, travel, loyalty features, payments, and future wallet-based services.
This initiative reflects the natural evolution of Barça Mobile’s mission: Go Global, Stay Connected. The platform is moving toward a more integrated, connected-first experience that prioritises accessibility, utility, and global reach.
