I'm looking to for a credit card that can be recharged with BTC

IYO, What are the best options ?(NO SCAMS PLS)

depends where you live. US?

take a look at the Xapo Card.

There is a lot of possibilies here , I can't speak about Xapo and E-coin cannot be shiped to U.S if you are there unless you ship to a friend elsewhere the nhe ship it back to you .
Bit-x.com seems to be good and also they removed the monthly fees as far as I know , same goes for Advcash they have low fees and also low cost (if they didn't change the prices then it's 1$ for Virtual carda nd 5$ for Physical card)

I'd go with ecoin's I heard bit-x's fees were really high.

I have a Bit-X debit card so I can tell you a bit more about. It works well, you can withdraw Fiat on any ATMs, also pay everywhere. You won't be able to check your balance though, at least I couldn't find one to do it.

Fees are steep, very steep but this is to expect since the service is somewhat new. Fees will probably go down as more competition rolls in. They have already dropped the monthly maintenance fee no matter are you using your card or not, which was a major drawback anyways.

There you go, hope I helped!

The cheapest card at this stage would be Xapo but they do not ship to the US.

Its also, AFAIK, the only card that do not have limits each year and or life-time limits [after the full KYC story].

Bit-X must be the most expensive card at this stage with their 0.0002 btc per transaction plus another 1% bank fee on top of that. The card has very low limits but you can bump it up two notches but the limits are, in my opinion, still to low then.

Both of the above cards work directly from your bitcoin wallet so there is no need to 'load' them, you just swipe and the funds are taken directly out of your bitcoin wallet.

The E-Coin card fees are okay but you sit with a loading fee to load the card and that adds to the cost which also makes this card more expensive than the others. I cannot remember what that fee was now but I know that made me lose interest in the card as it drove the cost up to high.

I know about some other cards but do not have enough information about them. In my opinion the Xapo card is the best at this stage.

This guy doesn't seem to have any idea!

I haven't used a Bitcoin debit card but I know several companies are offering theirs for free - personal use is more valuable than any recommendation so why don't you test a few out and see what YOU think. It's easy to set up a wallet, fees are minimal, transactions don't have to be high. Just get a few of these cards and then use them to buy a coffee.

Let the rest of us know what you think because it would be very valuable to the community here.

Is xapo card working already? They invited me many months ago and applied, but did not arrive...

That was a long time ago I guess , they was giving it for free or cheaper for their users or something but yes Now it should be working => https://in.xapo.com/campaign/debit/

Nope I'm in Europe! I need to find one cheap card that works fine.

advchash.com works well for me.

Then I'd suggest you E-coin.io , it only costs you 17$ and I guess 12$ if you use someone referal link this is for the Physical card . for what comes to the Virtual card (you can use it to verify Paypal or other websites and also use it to buy online) and it's free . 0$ you just deposit your BTC to your E-coin account then load the Visa card with it .

Thanks, looks interesting :) though they seem to give a slightly lower exchange rate (usd/btc)
anyone else used this card before?
might get one for myself if there is positive feedback

Been using E-Coin card for quite some time now, use it for in-store purchases only. Never had any issues :)

Also using the Bit-X card for Paypal & Amazon purchases, works flawlessly as well. Do keep in mind you can never spent more than 90% of your Bit-X  wallet balance in 1 transaction though.

You can check your balance right in your balance page (when you're logged in)! It'll show you the maximum transaction amount under 'Your Bit-X Cards'.

The maximum was increased to 90%.

I would recommend either Bit-X or Xapo. https://bit-x.com/cards or https://xapo.com.

They are both true debit cards meaning you don't have to preload them, just send BTC to your deposit address and you can spend it through your card aswell as through the site (Xapo: Send it as BTC; Bit-X: Trade, Buy GH/s or send it as BTC).

I stand corrected, good sir! Editing my post as we speak :)

I would recommend e-coin.io

Do you know if E-coin card can also be used for online purchases such as Amazon?

Sure it can, shouldn't be a problem at all :)

awesome, thanks!!

I would recommend, bit-x debit card (which is actually i'm using) and xapo. Other than this there are plenty of companies providing bitcoin debit cards but i don't know about them. :)

Bit-X card works quite well indeed! I do have a Xapo card but it's not used yet...i think

I think the BIT-X debit card. But why would you want to spend your bitcoin now, when it's going up?

Yes, my vote goes to Bit-X as well. Does everything it should do, no issues whatsoever. Also, the company does cloud mining as well and I like differentiation.
