Title: Canada, Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals Bitcoin Post by: SPC_Bitcoin on October 10, 2013, 08:04:25 AM https://www.cavirtex.com/news Quote In the interest of releasing this to the public quickly, we are proud to announce our Beta launch of Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals in Canada and even some internationally! For faster withdrawals you can now sell Bitcoins for CAD and then take out the cash at ATM's! There is a one-time fee of $10 to have the card mailed to you, once you have the card there is a low administration fee of $1.50 to add funds to the card. You must have VirtEx CAD to withdraw to this card and you must be cash or online verified but no bank account is required. Loads are performed once per business day at 5PM(MST) starting tomorrow.

Title: Re: Canada, Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals Bitcoin Post by: adamstgBit on October 10, 2013, 03:38:06 PM this is pretty cool, but are their any plans on making it hold a BTC balance that is automatically sold when we make a purchase?
not that i'm not happy with this new withdrawal method, I will be signing up for this shortly, and I'd like to thank you for making this possible. but you know, an account that holds BTC which can be spent in $$ would be CRAZY COOL, so just wondering if you have given that any thought / what are the pitfalls when trying to do such a thing? seems like you are 90% there, the process simply needs to be automated. you know i say that, but i find myself thinking, i might want to sell off the coins myself to get a better price, than an automated system that sells at market could get... *thinking out loud* Title: Re: Canada, Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals Bitcoin Post by: teflone on October 15, 2013, 02:05:16 AM Thanks for posting!

Liking the idea!, looking forward to details.. Send me one in the mail, let us all see it.. ;) Title: Re: Canada, Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals Bitcoin Post by: just_me on October 15, 2013, 05:49:00 PM Just one problem. The stumbling block of the need to be verified? Why not sell these cards to anyone who has the bitcoins to buy them? Why this need to be verified, before buying the card?

Like you, we would prefer to provide debit cards without verification, however, this is not possible at the present time.

damn the regulators (ie organized crime) Title: Re: Canada, Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals Bitcoin Post by: medicine on October 18, 2013, 10:48:51 AM How much longer until a full fee schedule is provided?

(including fees, which are pretty low)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sP68npZMBzI Very cool service. It would be amazing if you could negotiate a special deal with the Bitcoin ATMs that are supposed to be coming to some Canadian cities later this year. Please consider that.

Title: Re: Canada, Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals Bitcoin Post by: cavirtex on October 28, 2013, 01:50:32 PM How long does it takes to verify the "Pre-Authorized Debit (PAD)" document? It depends on the number of people requesting verification. When there are rallies like the one we had last week, there tends to be flood of new verification requests, which can cause minor delays. If you would like the status of your verification, please submit a support ticket: http://support.cavirtex.com/ Title: Re: Canada, Debit Cards that will work with ATM or POS terminals Bitcoin Post by: SebastianJu on November 16, 2013, 06:18:47 PM Great thing... is there a possibility to have such card for Euro or USD too? A virtual card would be enough already too.
And it isnt including debts, only the money you load into is available right?

Yes, only money you load is available (i.e. no credit). |
