Bitcoin debit card

[gosha@e-coin]

My card paid 1$ for the maintenance fee, is this will happen every month?

I am %100 sure that I did not doing anything last month

support@e-coin.io from your registered e-mail - that way we would be able to check. this forum is only good for general enquiries, not card or account specific ones.

It turned out that I had 1 transaction last week, so it's just my mistake.
I'm sorry for this, next time I would do a recheck before asking any question.
I am really sorry

no worries, mate, glad that it's all sorted and clear

i have Bitcoin Debit card on e-coin (USD) and i have a question, why i got transaction failed notice when im going to checkout and pay the bill even my balance was above the amount of payment needed? just for example i trying to buy some domain on godaddy and got transaction failed, how you face this problem? your answer really needed

it is possible that the merchant does not accept that particular card, so your first point of contact should be the merchant, and if you don't find an answer there, then e-mail support@e-coin.io

Checkout your card is completely verified and check If they have customer service center for immediate response and you can do by OTP password and I suggest you to go with Coinbase or Bitplastic debit cards they are very good and concern about customer's security and very fast in transactions. you can withdraw also a country currency in anywhere in the world.

i wondering what different between xapo,e-coin and coinbase debit card?is all of them have overplus?
and i'm still check and get some information all of them,and the best maybe can used by me,and glad to be know that there was 3 debit card that i know.

Well i know the differences between them, firstly xapo has their debit card which when you spend your bitcoin it takes that moment conversation rate, with e-coin you should first convert bitcoin to fiat money at their website and then spend, and about coinbase i have not much information as it is a new product nowadays.

XAPO: online card, attached directly to your XAPO wallet
E-coin: so called PrePaid card which you top up from your BTC account. After the top up you can use it as a regural bank card. (But in this case you can exchane the same amount to fiat and use your existing fiat bank card. Why to have 2 cards for the same purpose?)

how exactly do you easily and instantly exhcange BTC to fiat and us on your existing fiat bank card?

Now that's what I'm trying to say that:
Your card is a prepaid type card. This means for me that I have to top it up time to time, if I want to spend my money with it. If I top up that prepaid card, I exchange an amount of BTC to fiat, card will hold that fiat amount, if I'm right. After when I pay at a merchant, there is no BTC involved, it's only my fiat on the card and the merchant's transaction (payment in fiat).
If I have spent all my fiat from the card, I can top it up again with exchanging BTC from the wallet (or sooner, if I want)
So if all of the above is true, you have a fiat denominated prepaid bank card which can be topped up with BTC from a specific wallet quickly and easily.
My question is:
If I'm not in a hurry, I can sell my BTC's on any exchange and send the fiat to my regural bank account, to which I have my everyday bank card attached to. I can spend the amount I have exchanged with that regural bank card (even because it's contactless and I like PayPass very much), without extra costs for another card. Why then I need this kind of debit card?

I don't want to do marketing for your competitor, but I have another kind of BTC debit card that is attached to my wallet directly, so every time I do a transaction, the system uses the current exchange rate. But the main reason was for me choosing the other card was that I don't need to bother with topping up the card, as long as my wallet has enough funds, I'm OK to buy anything I want. But with your card if I haven't put enough funds on the card (even my wallet has the required amount) I won't be able to buy.

I don't want to talk about fees because both kind of debit cards has fees, so it's not a cheap thing yet if you want to play with these debit cards but I hope that in the near future these fees will become more affordable.

Please correct me if I have misunderstood anything in connection with your system, I just want to get a clear view about possible ways of paying with BTC debit cards.

your understanding is correct.

A couple of points to add / points you've missed:
a) it only takes a couple of clicks and a second to load the card with bitcoins - so, you can literally do that in front of an ATM. So, comparing this option to using a traditional exchange with a following bank transfer is not really comparing apples with apples.

b) unlike direct write-off from your bitcoin balance at the time of transaction, loading an e-coin card you have full control of the exchange rate. If you don't like the rate you see on the screen at that particular moment, you just don't load the card. With automatic conversion there is always a risk of catching a low BTC price at that particular moment

c) when talking about using an exchange and transferring the money to any other card - would you really pay no fees / smaller fees there? really? not to mention the hassle and waiting times involved

Thanks for the clarification.
Your point is correct about choosing the suitable time for the top up. It can handle the risk of the exchange rate change.
E.g. if you top up the card when BTC is 1000 USD and after the price falls to 500, you still have the fiat amount on your card exchanged on the 1000 USD price, so you won 50% compared to the others who use the direct exchange type cards.

Hm, there is no such problem for me. Yes, you can create as many accounts as you want (even from the same IP in the same computer) and make transactions from any of them.

that is exactly the point. You won't necessarily always catch the best rate, but at least you are the one in control

QUOTE FROM Denis A

Bitcoin deposits start showing in your account at 2 confirmations and are actually added to your balance at 6 confirmations from the blockchain. Sometimes it takes longer than expected, all depends on the blockchain itself.

Can see that your deposit has come through and you managed to load your card

my problem is : when i try to send 17$ in BTC  from my wallet e-coin  to another wallet in e-coin
i confirmed transaction via email but my balance still the same and nothing send

in blockchain when i past BTC address of my friend i get this error " invalid address "

2 friends cant send them BTC
i try to send from my blockchain to my e-coin i receive BTC without any problem everything is okey

[Amph]

i'm from india can i order virtual card

it does not look among the countries mentioned in the first page, so most likely you can not

try to get in touch with the owner, maybe he can do something about it, or you can order one for your friend if he live abroad and send you one there, it might work

[Most]

This is good for Bitcoin but the site is cheap and look scammy, I wouldn't trust my money in this kind of cheap kid web site domain.

If you are not going to order plastic card and verify your identity to increase the limits, than you should order a virtual card, and no matter what country you are from.

[bokiminer]

I made several payments with virtual card without any problem, and I'm very satisfied for now.
A few questions for guys from E-Coin:
1. Do you have plan to make branded plastics, I really don't like that gray (or black) generic card design  ?
2. When can we expect mobile application ?
3. I missed "Black Friday" promo, do you plan something similar for Christmas, New Year ?

that's the point, mate - we are not offering this particular service via our website, it is rather a by-product, a feature of the card that can be used directly. What we do in our service is help you load the card with bitcoins - any questions, issues, etc are welcome on that. Using the card with 3rd party services is possible, too, but we can't be of much help there, can only provide general guidance

is that a comment based on something or just a need to say something and get heard?..

1. Yes, branded plastic card is coming very soon.
2. Yes, working on that. Might take a few more months (not so much due to development as to approvals required)
3. Yes, we do! Watch the space...
