Hey, I am from Germany and the Visa card from crypto.com got green lights for europe. I was not able to get one, since i am from europ. I am planning to get one, to be accurate the red one. Has someone of you had any experience with the card?

I would like to get the red one, because of the free Spotify. I think for the price it is very costefficient haha

Wait for the preparation schedule for the European Union, you must download their app and choose the MCO card you need, after that you will be notified when the card is ready to be ship.

For detailed information, you can see it here When will I get my MCO Visa Card? (https://help.crypto.com/en/articles/1341663-when-will-i-get-my-mco-visa-card)

Just go with Wirex man, it''s great in Europe, the best as far as i know.
Also SpectroCoin has opened the cards again (worldwide) couple weeks ago.
I guess the cryptocards niche will be back to crypto again this 2020.

MCO just started the distribution of the cards in europe. Has anyone from europe already passed the adress verification process in order to receive the card.

The verification address for EU and UK to receive the card was launched yesterday and you will not get someone who from the same region who will have passed the address caused by the process is still begin right now.
Remember the first batch will receive the first card and it needs 7 - 14 working days. The admin says on the telegram group if the address is being requested from EU and UK users.
Have you joined on the telegram group?

Yes are in right place to buy visa prepaid cards, because mco is providing very genuine service from more than 4 years now. and you have to apply earlier and finish your KYC to get your mco visa card once they processes your application, maybe it will take more than 15 days.

Very interesting, I just visited the site https://crypto.com/en/cards.html to check it out and it certainly looks interesting with minimal fees.
some nice incentives to get involved too but it looks like you gotta be staking to get those rewards.

I looked at the different tiers of their card. And the requirement is you have to stake MCO to become eligible with the card of your choice. The red which you like will only cost you a small amount of staking while the more amount you will be taking, the more benefits you shall get. And you will get better answers on their subreddit with the same question.

I have just submitted address ... will see from now ..
BTW for Spotify,Netflix and LoungeKey™ Airport Lounge Access (one person) you need to deposit like around cca 2000$ on 6 months in their coin on their wallet.. After that you are eligible to receive that metal card with all these goodies ..

The card is now available in the UK too, soon in EU countries they say. But is there anyone of you that actually received the card in either UK or EU? I tried to find pictures or twitter posts but there's none.

It is not available yet for EEA countries,AFAIK. The team has updated the eligible country list a while ago but UK, Singapore, US are the current centuries are supported. I prefer to buy the Bitcoin debit card from Crpyterium or from Paycent rather than wasting money for VIP black cards in crypto.com.

They had a strong marketing campaign for Crypto.com credit cards. I decide to take a 3% cashback version, finish all their KYC, 40 days ago, no card yet (EU)   >:(

What are they saying at customer support?

In case anyone is interested on a decent crypto visa card, Wirex has an excellent one.

If you're looking for a german review of the MCO Card and CDC in general, I've found this aricle quite helpful:

I ordered the ruby one myself about 3 weeks ago, and still waiting for it to arrive (i'm from EU as well).
One guy from my local board has it, and he says it's good as any other Visa card, meaning it works and gives a nice cashback to boot

From personal experience, (I use it around 6 months in EU), everything works correct. Stacking, earning (up to 20% p.a.), cashback rewards (up to 5%), exchange and syndicate actions (possibility to buy some coins with -50%). For card owners they also have free Netflix, Airport lounge etc...
Even during WIRECARD affair (the issuer of VISA for EU), when cards were blocked, they refund all balance from card in 12 hours until cards start to work again.
They have two legit coins CRO (11th place of all coins) and MCO

Works like a regular VISA card, just you have to "reload" it via Crypto.com app. Major drawback (at least for me) is the fact that the card doesn't auto-calculate your crypto holdings to fiat - you have to manually select via app every time how much of which crypto you want to have exchanged for EUR/USD.
