Never heard of Bitcoin Credit Card Undecided

If there will be one, I'm pretty sure you can check the company's profile to further know how legit are they offering to you.

did you read the previous post?

there are more than two but TENX ans MONACO are the two front runners.
There are links to their announcement threads above also.

Here are images from the threads just in case you dont want to visit

AFAIK there are no working crypto cards at the moment because of VISA ending its relationship with WAVECREST.

https://www.cnbc.com/2018/01/05/some-cryptocurrency-backed-cards-dropped-from-visa-network.html

As I understand it Wavecrest were the middle man between the crypto card issuer and Visa.

Tenx which is probably the most promising of the card payments with Monaco following closely is in the process of seeking a banking license,
and has plans in place for an alternative to Wavecrest.
I am a bit more tuned into Tenx than Monaco so I talk in the case of Tenx.

So lately i decided to possibly get a credit card to spend some money if needed or wanted. Are there any suggestions which one is the best in terms of security and mostly in terms of anonymity?

I haven't heard anything about this Bitcoin credit cards. Is there really one? I am a bit curious on how this credit card will work, can someone enlighten me? What if the value of the bitcoin changed when the time you used it compared to when you're going to pay for the credit you used? (maybe it goes up or down) and another thing, is there still a transaction fee for this? Grin

They are actually pre-paid debit cards. You fill them, in a way or another by selling Bitcoin, with fiat.
So the price of Bitcoin matters at the point you put some more money onto the card. After that your card works with fiat, the merchants are paid with fiat.
I hope that's clearer now.

Edit: and yes, when you send Bitcoin to fill the wallet related to the card, or to be sold for fiat for the card (it depends on how the cards are implemented) you pay the tx fee (and probably other fees too).

Spectrocoin card worked like a charm, now after Visa stepped back from Bincoin with some major providers, they assured customers that plan B is in place and new cards will be soon offered. They claim to have the cards already and after some technical work cards should be issued.

You should try the following services for bitcoin credit card: BitPay, CryptoPay, Bitwala, Xapo, or Wirex. They are the best!

With Wirex there are problems, I would not recommend it.

I haven't personally heard about Bitcoin credit cards, but I know Bitcoin debit cards are a thing. Bitpay is actually a really big online service that started their card services a while ago as well. Take a look at the site here: https://bitpay.com/card/

One thing to keep in mind, Visa has been shutting down some bitcoin card suppliers in Europe. If you live there, maybe do a bit more research before you try to grab a card.

It is complex right now, because on the end you depend on a card authorised issuer. That is why recently a few cards have stopped working with no warning. I would suggest that you look anyway into FuzeX.

You could try Xapo or perhaps I have been hearing about Uquid. The pros of Uquid is that you can virtually use their supported cryptocurrency this includes Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Ripple, etc. Xapo currently only support Bitcoin.

I have heard about Hanseatic bank credit card there and there are banks like DKB , Barclay and all which offers zero annual fee.

I would recommend the best thing would be to check out them personally and you know you can always call the customer service number and ask them things it makes it more clear .

I would recommend the Shift Card

OP wrote that he's from Germany. Shift Card FAQ writes "At this time, only residents of the United States may apply for a Shift Card."
Is their FAQ not up to date?

The revolutionary AI gaming ecosystem

Credit card and anonymity are two things that do not mix at all. If you want a credit card you will have to part with not being anonymous this is as far as I know. I would however be shocked to learn that there was a credit card people could get and be anonymous because everybody would do that and not pay!

Nothing for my country. I'm from Asian continent and i have not seen any bitcoin credit or debit card that supports the finance system here. I tried exporting the TenX card but when it arrived I was shocked to see it not working at all. I contacted the support too but they started giving the annoying explanation after being claiming that it is world wide accepted card. But nothing worked up. So from my side nothing much but just hopes that I will find a project which supports the crypto cards for my country.

The differences could be coming from the fiat currency side because we'll crypto is decentralised and accepted world wide.

So my point is here make sure the card whichever you will buy supports your country and there is arrangements which can be done if it doesn't. Piece of experience that's all. ;-)

For small purchases like traveling in a vehicle, I would recommend the Shift Card the only down side I have with the card is there is a max of $200.00 daily cash from ATM machines, and a max total daily of $1000.00.

But the card i very reasonable in charges $2.50 ATM and $2.50 goes to Shift Card.

I really dont like the BitPay card as it is a load card...Say you want to purchase $2500.00, Simply move your bitcoin to your card and you have the amount you need, problem is once you load the card you cant move the unspent funds back onto your bitcoin wallet. Plus BitPay has multiple hidden charges.

It's really hard to tell you the answer of this question until and unless you don't state your state or your country because in every country different credit cards are recognized and thus once few internationally accepted ones will fit the lines but then again for the internationally accepted ones there is a problem that they are not valid In some countries thus.. before answering any question of this kind either tell your home country or search a bit .
