The litecoin foundation released a debit card a few weeks ago, if you want to list it. It's currently available for the U.S only but should be available for the rest of the world soon.

The litecoin cards are issued by and run by blockcard who is mentioned in the 1st post of this thread. Same card, different skin on it. Somewhere on the blockcard website is does, or at least did mention co-branding cards so there will probably be more in the future.

Also, the bitpay card can use ETH & LTC to fund it.

Not sure if you would want to add the cashapp debit card to the list. You can send BTC to cash app and sell it and use that on their debit card.

MCO Visa Card
INFO:

• Supported Countries - US, Europe and Singapore.

If this list is still being maintained, I'd recommend an update to the MCO Visa Card. They rebranded to become the Crypto.com (CDC) Visa Card a while back, and added quite a few more countries including Canada, Brazil, the UK and Australia.

Swipe also pivoted from being consumer focused to being business focused, and no longer issue consumer cards. I believe all existing Swipe customers were migrated to the Binance card. Too bad they no longer exist - they seemed like the only competitor to Crypto.com in terms of benefits and rewards.

Has anyone looked into Paycent recently? It appears that they are no longer offering. I haven't installed the app but both their Twitter and medium pages[1] are gone. The roadmap is stuck in 2019 and even the reviews section on the play store seems dead[2].

The same thing goes for Coinsbank. The card is still unavailable to order, and apparently, even the exchange is no longer functioning. The rates are wrong (see the site's header), CMC is no longer able to track data[3], inactive Twitter account, and people are reporting that they cannot withdraw their funds[4].

Recently, FTX announced a debit card: https://card.ftx.com

Hehe, I was expecting this news come up! Actually they took their time with it...
It was one important missing bit in the competition against Binance. Now their offers are (at least in my eyes/on what interests me) on similar level.
I'll follow the FTX card story, I'm very curious if they can make it better and more reliable than Binance's, while keeping it (almost) for free. It is possible.

Same thing here, I was waiting for FTX to finally release their card as that is the only thing that keeps me using Binance.

To be honest, they will have to offer quite a lot of things to make people leave Binance card as at the moment it's pretty reliable. The biggest issue for me when it comes to Binance card is daily ATM withdrawal limit, 290 euro just ain't enough. If FTX increases that, offer cashback that's easy to obain (1-2 % would be good enough for me) and be as reliable as Binance card is, it will be a no brainer for me. Either way, it's definitely good news as competition is good for us users.

AFAIK, they used to have MasterCard before, and currently, they have Visa cards but it's just for EU, Turkey, and Israel while UnionPay cards are for the rest of the world.

Coinbase released a new card[1]. The card won't have any transaction fees and it's only going to be available for U.S citizens.

Just noticed cex.io also has an upcoming debit card (and no one mentioned)

Q. Who can sign up for the CEX.IO Card?
A. We plan to cover as many geographies as possible. Initially, we are starting with the UK and EU countries (except for Germany and Malta for now), and will be expanding to other countries after.

Q. When will you issue the CEX.IO card?
A. We hope to launch the digital version of the CEX.IO card by the end of Q4 2021 and are hoping to launch the physical card by early 2022. That being said, we are aiming to launch the digital and physical cards earlier to those that sign up early on our waitlist above

the strange thing is that their unionpay card does not reach my country even though the unionpay website itself says it reaches my country and even though all banks in my country say that the unionpay card is supported in my country, but on the website from advcash it says unionpay card is not supported in my country.

Not sure if you're interested in listing non-fiat cards but CoinCorner just released the "The bolt card" [1][2] (NFC) which can be used to pay for LN invoices.

Not sure how they managed to pull this off but Edge wallet just launched a fully KYC-free MasterCard (U.S)[1]. The card doesn't require any kind of personal information (that includes email and phone numbers) and allows you to spend up to 1K$ per day.

From what I understood after seeing their website, you don't have to do any KYC when creating an account in their plateforme and you can convert Bitcoin and few other cryptocurrencies to USD then send it to the card which doesn't require also KYC information. So far that's good when shopping online with a virtual card but could the card be denied when paying in shops outside of the USA?

Anyone used them? I guess it's no KYC but they probably reserve the right to ask you to undergo KYC at any moment.

edit: checked the dedicated thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5401874.0
US only, some other caveats, and they're putting the program on hold anyway: https://edge.app/blog/company-news/official-announcement-edge-card/

KuCoin exchange launches its Kucard crypto debit card: https://www.kucoin.com/kucard

So after FTX announced their card, Kucoin decided to go down the same road. Btw , where you maybe able to find any info about fees and withdrawal limits?

Since Kucoin is one of the rare exchanges where I don't have to do KYC I think that I will skip this offer. After all, Binance card works almost flawlessly for me (except some weird contactless feature issues every once in a wqhile), so no reason to give my data to yet another exchange.

[Rikafip]

It is unlikely that the development of the card could have been carried out even earlier, and Binance became the pioneer among exchange cards, if I am not mistaken, other exchanges also began to follow this trend. Most likely, FTX just released this product earlier, and Kucoin is still testing it.

Hm I thought that Coinbase was the first exchange that release debit cards as IIRC one friend got his Coinbase card back in 2019 while Binance card  came to Europe in mid 2020 and I got mine few months after that. But Binance one is immensely more popular, at least here in Croatia.

It is known that no money will be taken for issuing a card, and it will also be free in terms of annual maintenance. Withdrawal limits and commissions for purchases will be announced, most likely when it is officially launched.

So pretty much the standard stuff and its good to see how situation changed compared to 4-5 years ago when Wirex had fees for every possible thing making it very impractical to use. What i would like to see is debit card with high daily ATM withdrawal limit as Binance allows only 290 euro which can be quite restricting.

[Rikafip]

The same applies to cards of payment services that work with cryptocurrency, for example, the advcash card also has a very limited cash withdrawal limit. I think this is due to the regulation around cryptocurrencies, and regulators do not want people to be able to withdraw a lot of cash through banking systems using crypto cards.

Not only cryptocurrency cards are affected with the relatively low limits, but the regular ones issued by banks as well (albeit withdrawal limits are higher). For example, card issued by my bank has 5000 kuna daily withdrawal limit (approximately 660 euro) so its a little bit more than a double of Binance card. Big advantage of Binance card is that daily spending limit is 8700 euro which should be enough for 99.99% users.

Its all probably about governments not liking the thought of us withdrawing money without them knowing on what exactly we are spending it.

On their website they say there are no annual or transaction fees, but they could charge some fees for trading crypto and for fiat conversion when you spend or buy something with KuCard.
They are still testing this card so we don't know how usable it will be in real life, and I won't open new kyc account just to get this card.
I am hoping that someone will create legit usable no-kyc card that works in Europe and worldwide.

Yeah I saw that part, its pretty much standard thing when it comes to crypto debit cards, nothing new there.

They are still testing this card so we don't know how usable it will be in real life, and I won't open new kyc account just to get this card.

It will be very hard for them to compete with Binance, at least here in Europe. Competition is a good thing though for us users, so I say bring it on.

I am hoping that someone will create legit usable no-kyc card that works in Europe and worldwide.

Since regulations are only getting tighter, I think that a legit and usable non KYC crypto debit card with reasonable fees is unfortunately nothing but a pipe dream.
