Title: E-Coin Announces EUR and GBP Bitcoin Debit Cards Post by: pmatveev on June 21, 2015, 11:29:41 AM E-Coin Announces EUR and GBP Bitcoin Debit Cards
E-Coin (www.e-coin.io (http://www.e-coin.io)), a fast growing online platform linking Bitcoin with traditional finance infrastructure, today announced the release of EUR and GBP Bitcoin debit cards. Quote from: Georgy Sokolov, co-founder of E-Coin We are happy to announce that in response to multiple Customer requests our Bitcoin debit cards are now available in two more currencies - EUR and GBP. Given that a large part of our clientèle live in European countries, this is a really important development, as it reduces the costs for our Customers, removing the currency conversion fees http://i57.tinypic.com/2e0i9ab.png The cards are available for immediate order with the choice of standard delivery via Royal Mail or expedited shipment via DHL with tracking option and delivery guarantee.

Title: Re: E-Coin Announces EUR and GBP Bitcoin Debit Cards Post by: pmatveev on June 21, 2015, 11:47:49 AM Currently it's possible to have 3 different cards (USD,GBP and EUR) and transfer bitcoin to the card of choice (it removes all currency conversion fees and makes E-Cards one of the cost/time efficient solution for BTC<->FIAT conversion).
There is no ATM withdrawal/Online shopping or any other hidden fees - you get exact amount you see on the screen It's instant conversion and works 24/7 Title: Re: E-Coin Announces EUR and GBP Bitcoin Debit Cards Post by: pmatveev on June 21, 2015, 11:53:08 AM These are prepaid cards unlike the Xapo or Bit-X Debit Cards. It's a VISA debit card, it's accepted everywhere and can be loaded with bitcoin or other services like PayPal or Skrill.

A user sells his Bitcoin in advance and loads the card with fiat. Which isn't that special.

Marco I can see you are advertising similar service (with far higher fees 3% atm withdrawal + FX fees + inactivity fees + extra fees for embossing card holder name) in different topic, the fact that you'r trolling in our topic doesn't look very professional Title: Re: E-Coin Announces EUR and GBP Bitcoin Debit Cards Post by: marcotheminer on June 21, 2015, 01:35:46 PM These are prepaid cards unlike the Xapo or Bit-X Debit Cards.

Also the fees are very similar (Bit-X and E-coin's). Feel free to try both out. I've personally tested Xapo, Bit-X, e-coin, advcash debit cards and have come to the conclusion that Xapo and Bit-X are the better option (fee and service wise). Xapo is the cheaper of the 2 however they are still in a beta phase, so cards aren't available to everyone (some fees haven't kicked in yet either).

https://www.e-coin.io/terms https://cardholder.mychoicecorporate.com/v3/tpl/MYCUK_limits.pdf Both are using the service of mychoicecorporate.com, and if you look ad the advcash, that uses "wavecrest" http://wavecrest.gi/index.php/products/corporate-payments "MyChoiceCorporate" :o ;D So, Xapo, E-Coin and Advcash are all of them using the same supplier of cards.

It has been like that since day one :) The Gibraltar bank is lenient towards Bitcoin companies (for now) |
