Is this legit or?  https://www.centra.tech/

Nice high-end cards in their portfolio:

https://www.centra.tech/products/index.html

But hefty contributions. Even for the most basic card.

No mention about issuing bank.

Headquarters address is a "suite" (usually a mailbox of some kind) but maybe a real suite. Not sure.

Project looks really thought out
Team page has links to linkedIns of project managers if you want to investigate their credentials
They even got Mayweather to be a "brand ambassador" for them https://twitter.com/floydmayweather/status/909911035263328256
Im not vouching for anything, but looks legitimate to me

That just means that they paid some good money for him to advertise the ICO. He also advetised Stox and Hubii in the past.
Please don't trust a ICO because famous people were paid to promote it. I don't even think they know what they are promoting.

Make your own reasearch and read some good articles about what people think about them.

They've done a lot of advertising for their ICO it seems.

Paying 5 ETH minimum($1k+) just for a bitcoin debit card that has no real advantages apart from 0 fees isn't worth it in my opinion. I'm not even sure what their main selling point is, but it seems to me like a rewards program that probably not a lot of people will use anyways.

Site design looks sketchy af as well. Tbh, i would not recommend anyone go near them.

Thank You for the information I didn't know that. I thought someone with so much money would have some integrity, OP should definitely look at that website and make a informed judgement

Well they claim to have 0 conversion fees between currencies - which is great if you are a high volume trader.

However, is it really worth paying 5 ETH for just a bitcoin debit card? I mean yeah you get the no fees and the rewards program(not sure what else is included but skimming through their whitepaper that's their selling points), but you're probably not ever going to make back the 5 eth you spent, and that's the least expensive option.

I would save that $1.2k in ETH and do something else with it.
