    This is exactly what I have been waiting for. Sick of waiting days for bitcoin to hit bank account. It says bitcoin reloads are instant, that is the best part. Definitely getting one. Thanks for the info.

    Just trying to track down all the terms/fees for people:

    Purchase card for $9.95 in btc and will arrive in 7-10 days
    Purchase transactions free anywhere **** accepted (or uses **** processors like Paypal)
    Deposits from btc wallets and employer (if you want to be paid salary in btc) free of charge
    ATM withdrawal fee $2 US / $3 Non-US, Limits: $3000/day, $750/atm

    I can't find the cost of activating the card.

    I deleted that post because I typed that before I saw who it was from my bad. Ive looked at bitpay before because I have them bookmarked, but Ive never used them.

    Curious if any one has tried it. There were a few in the past that were scams. They would never send the card and the websites disappeared. This one seems legit though. This could make getting cash from bitcoin 100 times easier than it is.

    Have been using European analogue from spectrocoin for two months. It works exactly as stated in the subject. Moreover, bitpay is one of the biggest bitcoin companies, and I am sure – this will be good option to use your BTC directly for shopping or getting cash.

    One question...

    When you send Bitcoin to this Bitpay debit card, is it being held in "dollars" on the debit card? Hence, you can not worry about Bitcoin fluctuations...?

    And also, if you click on the "Fees and Limits" link at the bottom of the Bitpay card's page...it says the card is actually a "pre-paid" ****...

    I assume this is a positive, as it is not tied to a bank account and such...

    Thoughts?

    Yeah it's just like any other prepaid debit card like ******** or ********. The only difference is you can load it with bitcoin.

    I'm going to take a wild stab and say once you send the BTC to the bitpay D.C. it will automatically transfer it to US Currency at the current exchange rate. If this is true.... this would be a real cool feature.

    I guess we'll all learn soon enough.
