Update:

I just checked my mail messages and I noticed that I received this from Bit.store. It looks like some sort of rebranding or merging with cardrypto that one could access via Binance marketplace.

I used cardrypto in the past for some subscriptions and purchases. I didn't get any issues. Not sure how this is now going to pan out.

Has anyone tested their support?

I think there is support on their website, but it works at snail speed so don't expect to get quick answer on your question Tongue

Another thing I noticed is they suddenly removed support for many websites including Paypal for some of their cards, and they have some maintenance issues with disabled withdrawal and recharge.
And If you want to create new card with different BIN number you have to send coins again.
This could be early red flag signs, so be careful guys.

EDIT:

WARNING!
Do not use this cards!
Support does not exist!!

So at the bottom of Alchemy's page, it says:

"The top crypto companies are launching global crypto cards"

Is that a reference to the future? or am I missing something? none of the services mentioned (Crypto, Coinbase, BitPay, and Binance) have global cards. It would be very interesting if that's actually the case.

More like "Other top crypto companies are launching Global Crypto Cards, what are you waiting for? Don't be left behind as a brand, talk to us and we make a partnership"

Can someone find the list all the partners of Alchemypay?
I see several card services are using them, with exact same interface like Bit.store and others.

They don't have a complete list, but so far I see 3 partners. Bit.store, Binance (cardrypto) and Tokenpocket wallet under the dapps section.

As nothing really negative was said about them here, I will give them a try soon!

Don't decide to use the debit card service based on the conversation made here you still have to dyor.
From the OP's message, he was looking for people to review about the card provider and all the feedback provided about the card provider should be seen as an experiment since there's always a chance for an exit scam for no KYC platform.

Yes, that would be awsome! Grin

I was unable to do so.

Some 40 days back, when I was intensively checking for living without my local banks, I have ended up with bit.store/AlchemyPay debit cards after doing a small search on Ratimov's debit card observer topic with no KYC and world wide availability as primary searching criteria.

Here are what I have experienced:

I tried to use this virtual card on my Samsungpay but SamsungPay does not allow me to add it.

There was $5 of first time applying fee:

.....

You must tell me more about this card. I don't think I have Bit.store listed. Since it seems that people can buy the cards (and actually use them), I'm going to guess that the scope of this card is "worldwide".

Has anyone tested their support? Like, is support even existent on the Discord/Telegram channels or is it a ghost town?

Quote from: BitMaxz on November 23, 2023, 07:22:07 PM

What I mean worldwide is that if the virtual card will work for any services like Playstore, Amazon Aws, or any subscription.

That's not what worldwide means technically - that's referring to where in the world you can use the card. On the other hand, a website can set its settings on Stripe or Paypal to deny payments from specific types of cards like prepaid cards. Amazon.com and all the cloud computing sites do that, so I'd be shocked if they actually worked there.

So while on Binance marketplace, I noticed cardrypto as well. Signing up all looks the same, just like Bit.store. In fact, even the general interface of the dashboard is the same. What I don't understand is why Binance discontinued their card service and now advertise cardrypto

Let me guess it's because of regulations problems, and Binance is obviously going down the hill for some time.

Very nice to see a new non-KYC card avaliable on the market, that works worldwide Grin

. I was looking for this without success since the last change of EU‘s money laundering policy on prepaid cards.
Bit.store uses Alchemy Pay as partner „bank“, so the same as shido.io

My first feedback for Bit.store cards is not bad so far.
It was easy to create new card and send coins there, what I like is that I can withdraw coins back to my wallet.
I had 50% success rate when I tried to make payments, but one website was not listed as supported, and this was just experimental purchase test.

I tried to use this virtual card on my Samsungpay but SamsungPay does not allow me to add it. GPay also not recognized this card.

They have 4 types of cards with different BINs (I think it's the Bank Identification Number). Not all types of their cards can be used in some of the services they support, but for now they're not as global as we think. Samsungpsy and GPay aren't yet supported for all card types:

Here are what I have experienced:

I tried to use this virtual card on my Samsungpay but SamsungPay does not allow me to add it.

There was $5 of first time applying fee:

When I was checking to get the 2nd card, this $5 was not applied.

Loading fee is (Recharge fee): 2.5%

Minimum loading amount is $15

We can withdraw the unspent balance of the card via crypto.

There is a $1 monthly fee with following note:

Quote

Starting from the user's card creation date, $1 monthly fee will be deducted every 30 days, with the deduction taking place at 00:00 local time on that day.
$1 is locked in the card balance every new month and cannot be redeemed or spent.
After the card is deleted, the monthly fee for this virtual card will cease to be deducted.

Bit.store and AlchemyPay are technical partners but the mails are received from cardrypto.com

It seems not all services and sites will work based on JeromeTash posted above?

I think the cards can be used by any one Worldwide. On top of the card just before you activate it, you will see "Support Global Consumption"

So, about the services that work and those that don't work. They actually vary from card to card. For example, the first 2 cards I posted don't support Walmart, Etsy, Newegg but some other cards in my very account do support this.

I will also test the service sometime to come and I will update here.

What do you mean by "work"? as in the ability to order it from a specific country? or sites you could use it with? If the latter, then I would imagine there will be some restrictions on that but for ordering it, then I don't see why would that be an issue since KYC is not required

I don't know about PayPal but in the case of AliExpress, I have never had issues when using pyypl virtual MasterCard when making payments. However recently they had some legal problems and switched from Mastercard to Visa, I don't know if they will remain the same as they were before.

Strange that on Pyypl website they are still advertising virtual Mestercard, there is no mention of Visa anywhere.
Another thing is that for their cards you need to perform KYC verification, according to information on main page.
I am looking for no-kyc cards that work on Aliexpress ^{for example}.

Quote from: JeromeTash on November 23, 2023, 08:46:30 AM

I think they do work worldwide for now until they don't. The cards however work for specific services and also have "a virtual location" so you will need to pick your preferred card
Once you log in, you will see about 4 different cards to pick from for a start, I counted about 7 slots.

That looks interesting, so I had to create quick account for testing.
Two cards I found on my account don't have AVS and 3DS, but other two may have 3DS and they are accepted on more websites (both VISA and Meastercard).
Maybe I will test this cards with smaller amount first, plenty of cheap stuff on Chinese websites.

PS
It sucks that only support for Bit.store is their discord/telegram server.

It seems like that URL only works if accessed from the site. Not sure why. But you should be able to go to it by going to the main site: https://bit.store/

Then select "Virtual card" on the top right side. This will redirect you to the same page.

Quote from: BitMaxz on November 22, 2023, 07:47:07 PM

The physical card is not yet available and the eligibility of the physical is only for selected countries.

Same here the 2nd link has an error and their FAQ from the main page redirects me to a different domain, they hosted the FAQ on notion.site.

Just saw a press release[1][2] of this service called bit store. I thought I'd share it, and also get some reviews in case anyone has used them before. The card have 2.5% top-up fee, and the company claims that KYC verification is not mandatory with a limit of 10K USD per month.

Second link is not working, and I wouldn't really spread the first link that looks like a paid promotional article advertised on Roger Ver's website Wink

No Kyc policy is only for their virtual cards, and real question is on what websites this virtual cards actually work.
I used several virtual cards before and I think they all have issues working on websites like Paypal, Aliexpress, etc. ^{(with few exceptions)}.
If someone tests this card please pots your feedback... I am still searching for ''ideal'' card.
