The costs are a bit high.
They are the first to launch to launch globally.
I don't think those costs will stand for a long time, because other companies has confirmed they are in the middle of developing their own cards.

Here you have another competitor with a slight different model of costs.

Where did you find anything about their fees? International shipping is free, but that was the only information i got.

Bitplastic is advertised with anonymity as an advantage... it won't last if there's any significant uptake. I assume Cryptex have actually discussed this business with Union Pay, and I've only assumed that from it looking like a semi-professional outfit (and their outrageous KYC requirements from the outset)

Word is out that BitPlastic is a scam? This one seems more professional. I'm checking, I might buy the card...

What's the point? I already have a debit card that works internationally, and I can withdraw funds to the bank account it's linked to from any exchange of my choosing.

Selling out to advertisers shows you respect neither yourself nor the rest of us.
