I believe Centra cards are not affected by the visa issue since it is using MasterCard. You are able to pre order the card now but delivery will take awhile because they are delivering the cards to ICO participants now.

All these cards where issued by the main company by name wave crest holdings. Recently Visa banned all of our cards for reasons which I am not aware of. Hence most of the Crypto Cards and the contracting companies like Cryptopay, Bitpay, Spectro and etc are all down and working on the alternatives.

I believe there are some companies which are directly associated with Visa. You can try TenX or Monaco should work hopefully. But not 100% sure if it works in Europe or Germany though.

tenX and monaco are both no good. monaco still hasn't shipped any cards after all this time and tenx doesn't work yet. I have been trying to get a card from both of them for a loooooooong time now. it's quite disappointing because they promised there product so long ago but they still haven't developed them after they released there tokens on the market how long ago.

I will use Utrust its like a paypal but with a twist they cater cryptocurrencies and a lot of project development will go through. Do you know what i want from Utrust they have Customer protection, fluctuation protection price. You can check their website https://utrust.io

The official communication was something like this: WaveCrest (the card issuer of the bitcoin linked VISA cards, a company based in Gibraltar) has been warned several times by VISA because of not following the rules, and the last time all of the WaveCrest issued cards has been shut down by VISA. Most of the bitcoin cards were issued by this company, despite of that there were several bitcoin wallet providers with card systems, the physical card's issuer was this company, the card was only rebranded if it was needed. Those bitcoin wallet providers are now looking for replacement card issuer company but because of the regulations it's not as easy now as it was before...
