Topic: Bitcoin credit card - page 2. (Read 561 times)
I do not agree if bitcoin makes credit cards, so it will make more umit just the process of withdrawal or other porses inside bitcoin. What's more if you have to deal with the bank, there will be taxes every month, and that will be detrimental to us, so be thankful the bitcoin we can still get and without tax.
This post is full of incorrect or (at best) very dated information.
Not true. There are several options that do not require the card to be loaded (prepaid).
"I've heard..." is not advice. You shouldn't post about hunches unless it relates to the future price bitcoin.

Please educate me about the meaning of PREPAID and how that is not true. And additionally ,since you have too much to say, tell me the right way of giving advice.
I said I heard amazon and other sites don't accept them ? Is this advice ?
I think there are some prepaid cards are not accepted in amazon or other services online due abuse by other users..
But you can check this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/list-of-bitcoin-debit-cards-1242788
They had updated list of debit card and reviews as you can seen there are list like the quarantined one like wirex..
Its not advisable to use as of now and base for customers reviews..
You can also see the upcoming debit cards.... I think if you have physical one what you looking for is to withdraw your bitcoin instantly or just swipe and you paid if you buy something in mall as sample..

Sir, are you not familiar with bitcoin exchanges? Most of these debit cards only work through exchanges...so wallets where you don't have any private keys. Bitwala works with Trezor but you do get the protection provide by MasterCard or Visa.
If you can't understand what the OP said and what I replied, don't comment.

Pathetic.

Shift now does the same via Coinbase. Bitwala draws direct from your bitcoin balance too.
So far your only option is to find one of those services which offer btc debit cards but they don't work as simple as you want them to be.
You need to deposit bitcoins in them first and they're debited as dollars at the current price and they you can use it. And yes you need to wait for confirmations and stuff like that but the balance becomes available later on.
I've used one similar service so far called Advcash but they don't issue real plastic cards. They give virtual cards. So they send you your name, card number and the cvc. I've used two or three times to buy gift cards online (just for testing though) but I heard that amazon and other sites don't accept them.

Wait what ? Take directly from the wallet ? Of course impossible. This means that somehow the service that issues your card should have total access to your address with private keys ??
Not a good idea.

You have to keep the coins with the provider. Most of them convert all of it when you deposit. Of the ones I've messed with Xapo is the only one that keeps it in Bitcoin and converts each individual transaction so you can carry on appreciating the rest.

There are plenty of debit cards that can do this, but it does depend on where you are. Non EU citizens have just been booted out by most card providers. Where are you?

there are many theories of people who create ideas like this ,, with some reason to reinforce their opinions, some say it is a good idea, in addition there is also a saying it is not a good idea ,,
but the problem I'm seeing right now is, it's going to happen if this bitcoin is already known to the world, and every country has to make a special rule about bitcoin that it's legal bitcoin, then it's possible that the idea will come true ..

Are there any websites out there that you can create a credit card and use your Bitcoin when you swipe? So the idea is you take out your card, swipe it and it will register as a mastercard, visa or whatever. But instead of charging you money it would charge you in BTC or take directly from your wallet? Obviously the card would have to be backed by a big bank or something.

Not credit cards...that's a bit antithesis to what Bitcoin is about. But there are may debit cards.
Some of the debit cards are prepaid, meaning you have to load them with a balance, and others draw off your bitcoin wallet directly.
Here's a great list and comparison of bitcoin debit cards.
the number of bitcoins is limited, therefore, futures for bitcoins (loans) are initially an incorrect idea, it would have become exactly a bubble.
There is a dozen of websites like you are looking for. Basically, you load your account with Bitcoin, it gets converted to $,£ or € following their internal rate, then you transfer the money to your card, it is instant to load your card. If you go to the "service discussion" section you will find several topics about it.
I don't want to transfer or wait or anything. Is that even possible?
Not until now I guess. So far your only option is to find one of those services which offer btc debit cards but they don't work as simple as you want them to be.

True, probably should have reworded it. I meant they would take from their wallet, and you would have to reimburse them, although then you run into all sorts of other problems I guess.... I just wanted a quick and easy way to get some Zygor Gift Cards without using paypal....I don't think I am going to be able to!

that is one of my plan in my plan list for october to get one of those fancy cards. That is super exciting.
Bitwala is a good service if you wanna have a visa card, you can use it in any store or just for withdrawing money in an atm, only that you have to convert your btc to usd first, and then you can withdraw it in your atm without any problems. I have been using it for some time and it is a good one.. I use wirex visa card too, i have both of them, but bitwala is the best one from them, because it is more faster and their support replies fast.
So question on that, Anytime I want to use the card I have to convert them first? How long does that actually take in order to transfer? I want something quick and instant, like I go to a bar/dinner/lunch and I want to pull my card out, have it take Bitcoins out and be done with it. I don't want to transfer or wait or anything. Is that even possible?
