Title: Bitcoin Prepaid Virtual Credit Cards
Post by: Dudeperfect on March 05, 2017, 09:17:40 AM
I am looking for virtual credit cards (I am Entropay user since last few years but I am having verification issues with them). I want to ask about your favourite destination for prepaid virtual credit card option where I can top up using bitcoin. Google gave me two results but it's always better to seek community's opinion.

I am thinking about these two options,

uquid.com - $1 monthly fee, Virtual Card Issuance Fee $1, bitcoin rate - No idea

coinizy.com - $1 monthly fee, Exchange rate applicable for BTC/USD conversion - Kraken USD/BTC exchange rate minus 5%


Which one should I pick if I am mainly going to spend for social media ads on twitter and facebook etc.

There are several services where users can get a bitcoin prepaid card and top up with bitcoin. Cryptopay, Spectrocoin, Avirexapp, Advcash are a few exemple where you can take a look at. Spectrocoin is giving away free virtual Visa via their twitter account, otherwise it's cheap as $0.50 if i am not wrong. I use advcash, both virtual and plastic and it going good until now

I have been using uquid for about 4-5 months and didn't had any issues with them. I actually used the unverified card so I don't know how their verification process is but you can give it a try.

In my account there is no option to request a virtual card and my plastic card has not yet arrived. This is creating me many problems.

It is at the same place where you ordered your plastic card. On the left, click create a card, then on the next page you have to choose between "plastic" or " virtual".I know that some countries are not eligible to receive those cards, for exemple India, but since you ordered a plastic card I assume your country is eligible to it. I got my card in about 2 weeks if I remember. The card comes from Germany and I am near Germany

My online wallet has this options offering bitcoin prepaid virtual card and time can only wait of availing this kind of opportunity. It has the same appearance same as the atm cards having plastic material and a barcode for your account number. This is another dimension of bitcoin development and transactions expediting, because it will probably turns out a good reputation to digital currency which could possibly be adopted by other individual who has no idea about bitcoin.

uquid.com - $1 monthly fee, Virtual Card Issuance Fee $1, bitcoin rate - No idea Uquid does not have any monthly fees on their cards and the btc rates is not known to me either but they offer a very good service. This is my personal review about them because i have been their customer for some months now.

Being in a research mode I am shortlisting some services to test with a smaller amount and after reading some feedbacks and reviews, Uquid is one of those shortlisted options. I would give a try and see if it can substitute my entropay experience or not.

Yes, many members and online reviews suggested that Uquid is a good service thus I have created an account with them and tried to fund it and order a virtual credit card. It worked as expected so far and soon will try to spend it on various platforms. I will post an update about the experience.

I too would have suggested the same as I have personally used their service and it's one of the best in the market. I heard the verification process is long but their service is better than others in the market.

You can try cryptopay.me virtual credit card, i am using their plastic card and it works well almost everywhere. However price for card is 2.5$ which sound pretty expensive than others but they have really good customer support. You can use that virtual card without getting verified with cap of $2500.

Neteller is also a good payment processor that offer a virtual debit card. You can also order a physical plastic card for a fee if you want. Neteller is also accepted by more merchants than any service mentioned in this thread, I think. And in case you didnt know Neteller also owns Skrill, formerly known as Moneybookers.

Thanks for the suggestion, will check it soon.

I have tried Neteller before but it didn't work as expected. Yes they are widely accepted and many merchants have direct pay with Neteller option but somehow it didn't work for me. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Also, don't forget various hidden fees and unfair exchange rate as well ::)
Almost all of the bitcoin debit card providers are retailers of wave crest holdings so they have same monthly fee of 1$ and have unfair exchange rate. You will never get market rate in any of those card provider. Also wave crest have changed their policy about unverified cards, so to use their cards with paypal, ebay etc you have to be verified first.

I think you should check this thread (about bitcoin virtual credit/debit card review, but little outdated) : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1410577.0 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1410577.0)
Also, don't forget various hidden fees and unfair exchange rate as well ::)

Yes, I am aware of the facts that many services have some hidden fees and that's why I am going with smaller amount initially to test the service. Thanks for the suggestion.

Agree, I have seen the exchange rates are about -5% and so on. I think there is no option to deal with the exact exchange rate IMO. $1 maintenance charge is fine for a period of 1 month.

Here is the list of prepaid virtual cards here https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DRbTeMCzb4UeXI0YlAzBxMc2u2i0cN_17Ql6eMngK6E/edit#gid=0

Beware on any links shared from newbie accounts because most of them are spam and scam.

So far I found the best for US resident is Square cash card. A debit Visa card that allow buying and selling Bitcoin. The card is free, the cash app on the same account functions like Venmo. The Square boss is same Twitter CEO, a Bitcoin fan.

Here it is, referral link each get $5 USD on my signature.

This is my first time to hear that square cash is now accepting bitcoin or selling. Do you know how much the minimum deposit in square cash?
I am using this before for making netflix account before so I think right now I'm going to use this again if the square cash minimum deposit is lower $4 in BTC.

Zero minimum deposit requirement. Everything on Square cash app,  Visa debit card is free. Visa debit card also offer a reward thing called boost, $1 off coffee purchase, or discounts at other restaurant.
I am new at Square, but so far I bought $10 bitcoin , the price was good. Maybe slightly worse than coinbase or germini, but reasonably good. The weekly Bitcoin buying limit is high ($10, 000usd for verified account).

I think Square cash app is really competing with Venmo. But Venmo or PayPal hate bitcoin/crypto, Square/Twitter CEO is Bitcoin fan, this is difference.
