Anyone else annoyed that AI tools still don’t accept crypto ?

ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini — all the useful stuff is still basically “add a card and pay”. No USDT, no BTC, no on-chain checkout.

So the workaround is just a crypto card.

Not technically “paying ChatGPT with crypto”, but close enough in practice: you top up a card with crypto/stables and use the card for the subscription.

I was checking IZIPAY for this because they show supported merchant types here:

My basic checklist would be:

- start with small balance;
- keep extra funds for auth holds;
- don’t rely on it for renewal until the first recurring payment actually passes;
- if one service rejects it, try to understand if it’s a prepaid/virtual card issue;
- don’t load more than you need for the subscription.

This kind of setup makes sense if you already live mostly in USDT and just need to pay for SaaS/AI tools without doing the exchange → bank → card dance every time.

Would be nice if OpenAI/Anthropic/Google just accepted crypto directly, but until then crypto cards are probably the easiest bridge.BTCBTCBTC
