Title: XAPO euro debit card. Experience, fees and limits. Post by: timz on January 09, 2015, 04:22:49 PM Hello,
I want to share my experience with XAPO debit card. I ordered EURO card 2-3 months ago, finally received. What to say? It is amazing!!! It is exactly I looked for. It is a EUR card with current account in bitcoins. - Zero fee on purchase! I have xapo account in BTC, when I do purchase they instantly convert required amount of bitcoins into euro. By good rate (it was higher, than kraken for example) with zero fee! No need to top up the card, I can spend all bitcoins I having on the xapo account. - They took 2.5 euro for ATM withdraw :( - You have to verify your identity to increase limits:
- Works fine in internet (PayPal). - After receiving you have to activate card calling to UK number, enter your data and listen the PIN. No other way to find out the PIN! Afterwards your may change PIN in ATM with $0.50 fee. In this way I have very high limit bitcoin card. The card has a chip and printed name of the owner. It is important, because local merchant refuse for example ANX card without a chip and name. Furthermore xapo has fast and responsible support service. Recommend! Title: Re: XAPO euro debit card.

Just open the account and order your card. The card will be automatically linked to your xapo bitcoin wallet. Title: Re: XAPO euro debit card. Experience, fees and limits. Post by: Mitchell on January 09, 2015, 05:13:10 PM I have heard of Xapo and I have read a bit about. It seems like they have a very decent card. Do you know where the company is located? I thought it was China but I'm not sure.
Two days to get verified is very quick and I like their method of getting the PIN code. Sending it together with the card would be stupid, so this is well done. Title: Re: XAPO euro debit card.

It is even more, than BitPay ($30M) http://www.coindesk.com/xapo-sets-40-million-fundraising-record-bitcoin-industry/

Title: Re: XAPO euro debit card. Experience, fees and limits. Post by: knight22 on January 10, 2015, 02:48:35 AM This card is awesome I can confirm. I have to pay 3% conversion fees though because the card is denominated in USD and I am in Canada :-\

WOW that is so freaking awesome that was pretty quick, dam i really wish Xapo would open up to the people in the USA. Its ok i am having high hopes and prayer for bit-x.com i really hope they start getting out visa or mastercard logo debit cards with the customers name on it so can use it anywhere Title: Re: XAPO euro debit card.

A letter from Xapo containing my card. It's a VISA debit card (like I expected) and it looks quite nice. I just activated it, which was easy to do once you get the hang of it. I will try to do an in-store transaction tomorrow, let's see how it goes. ;D

Title: Re: XAPO euro debit card. Experience, fees and limits. Post by: Mitchell on February 03, 2015, 04:31:32 PM Crosspost for clarification reasons:
I got my Xapo debit card without being fully registered. Yes, I had to fill in my basic details, but they never requested an ID. I have used the Xapo debit card and it works great, just like their app. Their website? Not so much. It's very confusing (for example the buying Bitcoins part) and sometimes so slow that I have to login again before I can do something, which is quite annoying. All my support questions have always been answered within 24 hours so I'm a happy customer at Xapo. Title: Re: XAPO euro debit card. Experience, fees and limits.
