[Investigation: Robinhood Wallet and Fomo Support Credit Card Purchases of Meme Coins, Suspected to Bypass Credit Card Crypto Transaction Rules] According to an investigation by The Block, the Robinhood Wallet and Fomo app allow users to purchase meme coins using credit cards via Apple Pay or Google Pay without completing identity verification, seemingly bypassing card network rules for crypto transactions. Tests revealed that meme coin transactions made with Visa and Mastercard credit cards were categorized as 'Digital Goods Media' (MCC 5815), a category typically used for products like e-books and digital movies, rather than the MCC 6012 or 6051 codes designated for crypto transactions. These transactions are supported by crypto infrastructure company Crossmint, and users can also earn credit card points or cashback rewards.
