Prepaid card and USA/Brazil currencies

I found that I can order a prepaid card in the FAQ, where I read that "If you are eligible, the Order Card option will also be displayed in your Payoneer account menu." It is displayed here, therefore I'm eligible, right?

My concern is about currencies, because the only options availabe are EUR, GBP and USD. I live in Brazil, whose currency is Real. Can I order the card even so?

I mean, as a PayPal user, even if I'm paid in euros ou US dollars I can transfer money from my PayPal account balance to my Brazilian bank account, case in which exchange rates apply.

If I use the prepaid card here in my country, having chosen USD as currency, will I be able to pay for purchases in Brazil's currency?

    Hi there @Paultx . The currencies we offerfor the prepaid card match that of the currencies in your Payoneer account.

    The card is usable worldwide. In any atm or purchase you make the funds would be converted from USD (or eur depending on the card you receive) to the currency requested by the merchant.

    There is a conversion fee for this which is up to 3.5% of the amount spent.

    The exchange rate we apply is set by Mastercard, and is the current most midmarket rate at the time of your transaction.
