Bitcoin Forum

Hi

i need your opinion on debit cards (virtual and physical), the best card for :

• transfer money from paypal to buy BTC
• use online
• use on ATM
• withdraw money to Paypal (and maybe Skrill)

I havent used a debit card for bitcoin myself since I live in the US.

So assuming youre in the places where these companies ship out to the card to there are several.

Some known ones are Xapo, bitstamp has their own program as well.

Coinbase has their own too, but only currently serves the US - which I might do but just been holding off since their customer support is always  I heard is terrible.

If you are in the US - you can read https://blog.coinbase.com/2015/11/20/introducing-the-shift-card/

Thank you, i read about Xapo but cause i need card to use it with paypal i dont like this

That should help you find one or at-least narrow your search down. I can't get myself to trust any company since basically the money you store in these debit cards is under the control of the card issuer.

Thank you

coinisy cards are interesting,cause  you can withdrawal in  ATM's (worldwide) , cash out your bitcoin to paypal , and they have not agressive KYC ( know yours customers ), as they dont ask any documents under 2500 $  ( https://www.coinizy.com/ (https://www.coinizy.com/))

when this limit is reached, you have to produce one ID doc + 1 Proof of residence ( less than 3 month ) for upgrade your account for more decents limits.

xapo debit card is a good choice too...even if they could put your bitcoin on old for 14 long days: ie: you try to withdrawal on ATM, you ask more than your limits = your bitcoins are debited from your xapo account during 14 loooooong days , even if the ATM haven't give you nothing...  ::)

Has anyone seen a bitcoin debit card that doesn't charge outrageous amounts to load or spend?

bpdf

advcash and xapo are quite good
advcash convert btc in $ in the moment you send btc to your account, xapo does the conversion when you spend the btc

Try spectrocoin.com , they have eliminated their  Bitcoin debit card loading fees. Thus, you can Load your card with 0% fees , just visit their site at spectrocoin.com
Goodluck

Spectrocoin have a giveaway on currently, they're giving away free virtual cards. These cards have a 2.5k limit if unverified, but there's no loading fee!

I used to be a fan of e-coin but spectrocoins features and fees are way better. But because they are new to me i don't use it as my main card. Along with a bit-x card i got it coverted.

I think xapo is the best choice for europe.

OP can simply compare their fee thru the debit card provider's FAQ page,when you're going to use debit card, i think the main thing that's important is about how fast the support to get contact with you + help you to resolve your problem,and the fee

sorry bro but i actualy reserve my judgement . xapo hold around 0.4 btc  from my funds since 14 day now...from a pending withdrawal wich dont has work correctly to an ATM.
 i has already contact their support several times about this issue, but i really think to open a scam accusation against them if this problem will not be solved in few days..  :-\ soooo...  be aware...  unless this issue will be  solved..


regard of this:
you're simply right  dude... that's make good sense...  ;)

Can you compare rates, i know fee is the same but exchange rate is not betwen cards you have?

Stay away from e-coin they are having a lot of issues recently

Try also bit-x debit card but i dont know if you can use it in paypal.. but they are legit and very active in this forum.. they have a good reputation here..

no , it dont work with paypal.. but yes they are legit, and also, by the way if someone interested i have got a bit-x debit card i had never used, wich was never activated,  for sale.. at a good discount  ;) before using it, you need to open a bit-x accound, and then activate your card.. just PM me for details..

Thank you all, but I need card that can work with Paypal, was thinking about Wirex/e-coin but then i read that many ppl have problems.

We would like to apologise for recent issues. (https://blog.e-coin.io/we-would-like-to-apologize-for-recent-issues-5a181ee6d8#.k3wxf4cu3)

it's about coinisy website and their service..

Ty mate but i had little chat with Coinizy CEO and he told me that is still not possible to transfer money from paypal to coinizy card, so i need some other solution.

No , not in this way... But it's possible to transfert your bitcoin to paypal as well.. Wich could be cool ..

I read that many ppl have problems with e-coin so im still on quest for card  :-\

Check out bit-x

I'm using spectrocoin right now. There have been minor problems such as authentication email when loading isn't received until more than 30 seconds have passed(not sure if this is an isolated incident), but other then that it works.

I'm pretty sure your best bet on this one is e-coin.io, or bit-x.com.

Both of them are pretty trustworthy. I've personally used e-coin, and they are pretty excellent. I suggest you try them as well.

As far as bit-x goes, they are pretty good as well. Haven't tried them myself, but they seem to be trustworthy.

I honestly think that the bit-x card is one of the best and after that the e-coin card although I never used the last one.
E-coin can be good but I also heard some bad things about them.
