Okpay card?

[Beerwizzard]

Hey guys!
Anyone used okpay card? What can you tell about it? Also a question about okpay system: is it reversable (there is not much info about it in currency exchange section but i'm afraid that it is, just checking)?
I'm waiting for repond from their support about the local currencies they support but it looks like a good service to exchange BTC and withdraw it directly to the card. So share your thoughts and experience please.
P.S. I will also appreciate if you share some services with a worlwide delivery and good amount of local currencies.

First make sure you have read all their terms related to their debit cards, they will not allow you to upload money that you will get from bitcoin deposit or from any funds that originates from cryptocurrency.

They might send you card which you can use to make withdrawals but you can't load funds there from bitcoin. You can fund okpay account with bitcoin but you can't load those money into their cards.

Damn, thats a bad move with the card from the side of service providers. But is okpay reversable? If no then it is still looks like a good option to exchange bitcoins for the other people's okpay that was added without any cryptocurrencies (maybe it is even posible to add a small fee for such exchanges).

okpay is really a good idea to work with bitcoins, but you can not move btc from your okpay wallet to your card =(
by the way, it is non-reversable

It is a good card as far as i know, but there are better options if you are looking to use a visa card and you want to load it with bitcoins or with some altcoins.
Why dont you try out BitWala? it is one of the best at the moment, you can try it and it is only worth $18 each card, and you can use it for some years. I have been using wirex until now but it is a shit, there are a lot of cards, i dont know why, but everyday, there is a new one, lol.
But they all have some kind of issues, but bitwala is pretty good..

This is a post from another thread:

""What you can do right now is order one card from okpay, they deliver mastercard to worldwide. But as they don't accept direct deposit from bitcoin, use some exchanger to fund it with bitcoin. Now load your card with those fund you got from exchange, I think they will allow this deposit as it is not directly related to bitcoin. I haven't tried it yet but if this will work than it will be helpful for everyone.""

Not sure if it works though - I have recently joined OKPay and waiting for the verification process to be completed.

Do you need to get any verification before ordering a card? I've only seen only an order button in my acc. Also there is still no info about the chargeback ortions (I doubt that support will give an honest respond, even PP support usualy is no saying anything about it) so it could be nice to hear some feedback from users. Maybe it depands on the funding source?

I used wirex on the past and it was one of the best cards that i have ever used until they had a lot of issues and i had to change to okpay, it is the best card, because it is very easy to use and it has very low fees.
Xapo card is a good one too, but the fees are pretty high and this made me stop using their service because it was insane just to pay more than three dollars per every transaction with your debit card, it is more than a daily salary in a third world country.
And if i am not wrong, the okpay card is below twenty dollars each one.

I ordered the okpay card for 15 dollars. It looks like nothing has changed https://www.okpay.com/personal/payment-cards/okpay/
And what kind of problems with wirex card are you talking about?

I ordered too, one virtual card but instead of giving me virtual card instantly after payment system generated an automated support ticket than after few days their support ask for address verification which I have done with them before too. But after sending that same document they just rejected it. I got fed up with them and finally asked for refund and they have refunded me.

I was in a similar situation, asked for a new document, although I was already verified.
Support told me that the card issuer bank did not like my address doc which was accepted for verification.
So I provided another address document. Because I really needed Okpay card.
Otherwise I would tell them go to hell.

That kind of defeats the point of having a card, I have never used Okpay but there are others out there which do allow you to load funds to your card, spectrocoin is one I am familiar with, I think that all the cards will now want verification to happen before being able to use the card.

But after sending that same document they just rejected it.

I've been trying to verify my account for more than 4 years and they always refuse on several pretests, I do not even know if I should continue trying or if I should just give up

Support told me that the card issuer bank did not like my address doc which was accepted for verification.

I received the same response and tried several documents and they always refused



good luck trying to verify your account, you will need a lot of patience

Okpay working with bitcoin is really a reliable. But you have to read all their terms that related to their debit cards, because bitcoin deposit and funds that originates from cryptocarrency are not allowed to upload to their cards.

really? I'm sure I read all the terms  before ordering the card. I ordered a card only to withdraw bitcoins and I was f**king angry when it turned out that it is forbidden.
Anyway, I agree with you, okpay is good for bitcoins. now I withdraw bitcoin from okpay using bank transfer

So, in summary - you can top-up account with bitcoins, however you can't move them to card - but you can withdraw them by wire transfer. Is that correct?
