  • pay the retailer from any other BTC wallet
  • buy BTC from the retailer
  • sell BTC to the retailer
  • check your balance
  • print invoices
  • pay to QR codes
  • and a lot more...

Seems great. Which fiat currencies will you support?

No Fiat, this is Bitcoin vertically integrated.
The retailer may choose to buy/sell Bitcoins to you.

So the retailer need to accept bitcoin directly? there is no fiat conversion at all?

We will make it very easy for them to use other exchanges.

Your system (http://coinkite.com/faq/terminal) looks very promising. I hope you will provide a list of merchant/retailer having those terminals so we can know where to use this card.

How much these cards will cost?
Will you have a worldwide integration?

- Map of locations will come soon.
- Cards are free with paid accounts, if we can work out the numbers we will make them free at retailers when you open and deposit money on our system.
- World device, GSM+Wifi, the data package is on us.

All this may change.
