List of bitcoin debit cards

[Flanagan]

Hi trying to decide, narrowed down my choices now to two cards:

Cryptopay and Coinsbank

Any pros and cons from anyone that has experience with these?


PS: Yes, I have looked at many of the others but for example I found too many "issues" reported for Uquid and Xapo; maybe they are both OK now don't know, but need to make a decision so sticking first to the first two mentioned.

Any comments appreciated, thanks

Best idea is to try many cards and then you will choose what is the best for you. Because you will see many opinions here, but only if you try you will understand how this system works.

Thanks. tring out many cards is expensive as they all have an issue and/or activation fee. Guess I will have to research further to decide on one of the two mentioned.

Cryptopay has worse rates, Coinsbank is free for the first year but requires verification with docs to unlock benefits of named cards.

Why are you including the goldmoney card if it can only be funded with gold , not bitcoin?

If I remember correctly, accounts of that service could be loaded with bitcoin. Can't one buy this "gold" there with BTC? I haven't checked thb. If not, then you're right and I should remove this service.

Quarantine
The providers in this category have been offering their services for quite some time now, but issues are reported by users from time to time.

Advcash

Why?

The Advcash thread was full of complains when I added the serive in this section. Plus some bad news here and there like this post on reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4qbxft/advcash_card_cloned_us4685_usd_stolen_trouble/

If you've got any personal experience with Advcash that says otherwise feel free to share. I change the thread based on community feedback as I can't keep testin all cards actively on my own. 

[alani123]

Added Loadoo and Lavapay in Questionable category as I haven't seen any feedback for either. If anyone shas experience using their services please feel free to share your epxperiences.

Which ones are not KYC?

Which ones are not KYC?

Do you mean cards that do not require ID verification? Uquid is a good example, they offer near-full debit card services in their platform with no document or ID submissions to be required. There are several providers that advertise "no ID" cards but in my experience not many of them offer a good service in terms of fees (usually high) and limits (usually too low with no verification).

With bitcoin's.price falling, do you regret not having cashed out earlier? Bitcoin debit cards that can be loaded with money instead of always exchanging bitcoins in real time give you a chance to cash out bitcoins at whatever price suits your needs. Did you take advantage of the recent rally using a bitcoin debit card?

I definitely regret for not doing that but even If I wanted to , I couldn't do much as my country is restricted in almost every bitcoin debit card service and without verifying my ID or income , the limits would be too small for making any profit .

Coinsbank is free for the first year but requires verification with docs to unlock benefits of named cards.

What are the unlocked benifits?

Look at their card comparison tables here to find out yourself. If you order a named card you'll have to submit documents to unlock it or it'll be used as a no name one.

I don't know if here is the right place to ask but how to prove the ownership of No Name card when there is no name printed in the card, for example the card gets stucked in ATM and you have to provide the ID in order to get your card back, understand the situation?

That's a good question but I guess that it's up to each bank's policy and can vary as per jurisdiction. No name cards aren't convenient to use for ATM transactions too so this can't be an issue affecting many people.

I will open a thread dedicated to this question because I have one bitcoin debit card from cryptopay and the name is my nickname so this can be an issue if the scenario above ever happens, I planned to use spend bitcoin and withdraw from ATM when I need them urgently, anyway thanks.

It's an interesting inquiry nevertheless, but hard to answer as a third party. Feel free to link this thread here, I'd be curious to see the answer as well.
