    Bitcoin debit card

    Has anyone receieved and used it yet? If so, does it work? Using a place like nitrogen and having this card would be as close to vegas as you can get as far as instant payouts and cash in hands!

    I hear you. I just asked same question in another thread. If this bitpay card is legit you can basically withraw straight from nitro to card. No more waiting 2 fukin days to get cash for bitcoin from some exchange. It says you can load card with bitcoin and funds are instant. Sounds too good to be true. Waiting to hear if it's legit before I order one and find out it's a scam.

    I really hope its works , outside US we have neteller with debitcard and some bookmakers with instant payouts, not fair that US people has to wait days when we get it instant.

    I know. I miss netteller days. Unfortunately our government thinks betting on sports is the worst crime ever. I'm not even allowed to send P2p anymore. Its pathetic because most of the time I used P2p it wasn't even gambling related. Yet all these illegal immigrants here can use P2p no problem sending money to Mexico. Every Friday there is a line of 20 Mexicans using it at grocery store yet as a U.S citizen I am blacklisted. It's pathetic.

    wonder how long before someone gets a message "sorry but your card has been cancelled". you know its bound to happen especially if you use the card frequently. any company dealing in the U.S. is going to be super cautious.

    Yeah. ******** was the answer to netteller for a few years until feds shut that down too. They made it so no international purchases could be made. I just hope bitcoin lasts. But banks do not like it I know that. That is why I am skeptical of this bitpay card if it's a **** or **********.

    just an FYI. These bitcoin debit cards have been coming in and out of the market for years. They never last. So enjoy it while it lasts.

    Yeah. But is it instant like they claim? Or does it take 3 days? That's what I am curious about.

    Get the card and they give it to you... you gotta have a place to send the bitcoins. All prepaid cards have sites...

    What was the activation fee (if any)? Or does the $10 purchase price include activation. I couldn't find that on the site when I originally looked. I recall it is free to deposit and $2 US ATM withdrawal fee.

    Wait.... is it $4.95 every time you send BTC to your card?

    On the .pdf fee list... doesn't state it's free.

    I don't think it's in anyone's best interest to constantly have BTC incoming and outgoing from your bnk acct.

    Yeah but if I'm not mistaken the card has your name on it and they need s.s number just like all other prepaid cards. Maybe I'm wrong. I hear you on the bank thing my bank keeps questioning me about bitcoin transactions from coinbase wondering what it is.

    Yes, that's standard info. The issuing bnk of this card is clearly stated on the web page. They do a few pre paid cards. I think they are only out of New York. This isn't a national bnk. They want your business.... unless you do something extremely stupid with your card... nothing will ever be reported.

    I'll take my chances on a small time bnk than a national bnk.

    But, my question is.... every time you load with BTC address.... do they charge you $4.95? Or is it free?

    Is this the process:

    You send say $500 in your current Bitcoins to the debit card...the Bitcoin leaves your wallet and is deposited to the debit card, and you now have $500 usd to spend on your debit card...?

    If so...this is very welcome!

    I agree. Taking my personal bank out of the equation is key. I looked up,the limits and you can load up to 10 k per day in coin and cash out 3 k per day in coin. If this cards works i can stop going through my bank altogether.
