2500 euros card lifetime? Are there any plans to increase this in the future?

This limit is for cards which were ordered without basic verification. Basic verification increases this 'limit' to unlimited.

Hi marco please do consider Pakistan shipping

Countries where the BIT-X Debit MasterCard will not be shipped to for the time being due to Financial Action Task Force (FATF) and Central Bank restrictions:
 
Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria, Angola, Cambodia, Democratic Peoples's Republic of Korea (DPRK), Ecuador, Guyana, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Namibia, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Sudan, Syria, Uganda, USA, Yemen, Zimbabwe.

Ooops I was really waiting for this master card since long time, and at last when it is going to release, Now the problem is you can not ship it in Pakistan.
Will you be able to ship in next future or its permanent ?

As you said, being a part of Bit-X signature campaign waives the fees of shipping the card and remains an activation fee of 0.05 BTC, right???
Also, are these cards going to get shipped to India too???

Yep, if you're part of the campaign you won't have the issuance fee.

India will be able to receive the cards!

[NUFCrichard]

I like the idea, but there are a lot of not insubstatial charges related to the mastercard.
0.05 if I don't use it for a month? Thats like $12. Another $12 to activate the card . $2 or so everytime you use it. and if I want my name on it, it will be another $24!

If the costs come down A LOT, then I would get one, but I would not pay $150 to have an unused card, or the changes related to using it

As cool as a bitcoin debit card is these fees make it practically pointless to use. Bitcoin is meant to be minimal fees yet there's ridiculous fees for everytime you use it and fees for when you dont. It was a similar story to the other cards I've seen available. I'd love one personally but wouldn't bother if there's fees are so much. I want something I can load up and use as and when needed and not have to worry about making a purchase just to keep it active.

[Minerjoe]

Currently my main concern is the limit. If they introduce a limit of let us say $2000 per card or something similar, this is a bit of a problem. Nobody wants to order a new card every couple of months.

There is no limit for verified users (those who complete basic verification).

Using the card once a month isn't all too hard and will more than likely come naturally (a withdraw or purchase at least once every 30 days). A $2 fee when used is minuscule considering you're spending directly from your Crypto (Bitcoin or Litecoin) balance, no need to spend fees on an exchange to convert it to fiat. Lastly, your name on the card isn't essential but I understand it can be preferred (especially as some shops require it).

I'll mention the fees to the team and will get back to you regarding them.

You can easily register on neteller, deposit your bitcoin (with zero fee) through bitPay and after generate a virtual debit cart.

[BIT-X.com]

The monthly fee of 0.02BTC is now waived (free) for the first 10,000 users! The inactive fee still applies.

To acquire a card please ask for one from a BIT-X representative or by expressing your interest to card@bit-x.com.

Enjoy,

Cards will being fully functioning in mid April!

I have received my card. Pictures will be posted shortly.

[marcotheminer]

I ordered mine without a name so by default BIT-X.com is embossed.

The card looks much better in person and also comes in another design (as seen on the site, just without the Bit-X logo which will soon be printed on cards when possible).

You can easily register on neteller, deposit your bitcoin (with zero fee) through bitPay and after generate a virtual debit cart.

Then you won't have the advantages of having a physical card!

EDIT: BitPay charges extremely high fees (a much lower exchange rate). Also, unfortunately, neteller's card isn't a debit card which is linked to your wallet. All bitcoin is converted with BitPay's lower exchange (5%+ fees) to fiat when you fund it so you may suffer from the volatile exchange rate.

The BIT-X Debit MasterCard™ converts from your balance at the exact point in time when a transaction is initiated, so you don't lose out on exchange rate changes!

The Bit-X debit card has ridiculously high, unreasonable fees which make using the card pointless. The fact that you say BitPay has high fees is hilarious given this context.

In my opinion 5 or so percent is justifiable for the product. Of course people will want lower.

Hey,
Any updates for the cards you were going to giveaway to the campaign members? I am really looking forward to use this card, would be pretty awesome.
And I enrolled for the free cards(for campaign members) a long time ago, but never got a request/ never came to know that when are you going to send the card.
Any info?

Also, is card issuance and activation both free for campaign members?

[thebitcoinquiz.com]

Wouldn't it be better if instead of charging 0.01BTC for each online/offline transaction we make through your card, it would be nicer to charge like 1-3% of what you spend.
That would be more appropriate and would allow people to use card even for using that card for small things, else I wouldn't like to use that card on amazon to buy something which will cost around 20-40$(because the fee would be too high).

These fees are ridiculous really. I know that bit-x need to  earn some money from it and not act like Santa Claus but this amount of fees are hard to chew on. The reason I am using bitcoin is exactly to make bank and processing fee disappear completely or significant lower them. Why should I pick up bitcoin debit card when it does exactly the opposite - increase my fees while doing bitcoin transaction? It is flawed logic imo.
