Nice little news article on Centra

Bye Bye Banks – Cryptocurrency Debit Card Creators Launch Smart Wallet Apps for Apple and Android

Cryptocurrencies are the new digital currencies spurred by the skyrocketing value (one BTC is now worth over $5,000 USD as of last week) of Bitcoin. These digital assets, which are based upon decentralized blockchain technology, all face a similar problem: how do you get internet money off of the internet and into the real world? After all, these aren’tphysical fiat banknotes, Bitcoins and altcoins (crypto coins other than Bitcoin) are lines of code and algorithms on a public ledger. These coins, until very recently, have largely been restricted to exchanges over the internet.

One company is about to change all of that.

Right, I gotta keep that in mind. What a shame, I guess its good time to start buying 

People selling altcoins and getting ready for the fork to get free bitcoin gold coins.This may continue until another month as well as we have the second fork on Nov.There is no other option, other than to hold until these forks are complete.

Why is the price plummeting? I didn't expect centra to plummet after the ICO ended.

The Centra wallet app will be unlocked with access codes being delivered to the ICO participants first on November 1.

The general public will be able to apply 1 - 2 weeks after that and then anyone can start using Centra

That is great news qiwoman2 those BLACK cards look really cool and they have some wicked benefits attached to them.
I got my confirmation a week ago but only for a little blue card, still they both do the same thing right?

This project is so close to going live now, a little more patience whilst all the legal and compliance work is finished off and as you say shopping in crypto before Christmas 

I am so happy today I got my verification for my black Centra card and they said in the slack in the announcement channel that cards will be shipped worldwide within 3-5 weeks so I am hoping I will get my card before the XMAS SHOPPING RUSH. It would be awesome to be able to sue my card in time to get a few little gifts for the family all with crypto currencies. This really will change the way we live and think of finance now in the Industry. The Cnetra Team and SUPPORTERS IN THE SLACK HAVE WORKED SO HARD to help newbies and old veterans alike and it's really friendly in there too. 

Episode 2 of Centra Live will be today at 12pm EST, you will be able to watch on the Centra youtube channel.

If you want to pose any questions you can do so via the Reddit channel

You understand correctly dopefishz

The other companies are using a 3rd party company to provide the cards (Wavecrest) and this is where all the problems have come from.

Centra chose a different route and partnered with a US bank which will result in a co-branded Debit card usable in any country.

Here is a recent update announcement from the team

It has been brought to my attention that many of you have been wondering about the statements made by MasterCard to ban Cryptocurrency Debit Cards outside of EEA geographics. I have done some due diligence and phone calls with my issuers and banks and this in NO WAY effects the Centra Card and our operations.

Our licensing agreement and Master Service Agreements gave us the same licensing rights to these institutional issuers that allow us to operate as Co-Branded Prepaid Debit Card Program in all regions we support. The MasterCard ban was made, again, to Wavecrest whom is the issuer for other cryptocurrency companies such as TenX, Xapo, etc.

From my research, it seems as though these bans have been to Wavecrest for violating any licensing agreements they had in place with Visa & Mastercard. I am not positive on this matter of the ban, I am only reporting based on my research, however this issue does NOT apply to the Centra Card nor effect us in any way and been confirmed by our issuers.

Yes the crypto in the wallet is insured, it is one of the big selling points for Centra, you will get details of the scheme once you have signed up. By the way the app has just been released a few hours ago on IOS, personally I am waiting for the Android and desktop versions that should drop later today or tomorrow.

Exciting times.

Is the insurance policy already 100% final and official? If this happens then this will be the first one I saw in crypto to get insured. It would be interesting to know the maximum amount insured as in no other way I see insurance companies to not set limits.

The Metal cards Titanium, Black and Gold are all limited edition and were only available for the ICO.

The signature card will be the BLUE one and this will become available for general release early Q2 - 2018. Centra have signed a deal to do a production run of 50,000 cards so they are already gearing up for a full blown release next year. They plan to make the GOLD plastic card available as an upgrade from BLUE and this will be dependent on your level of spend on the card and your holdings within the Centra Wallet app.

Remember the Centra Wallet will be insured so all crypto you store there will be 100% safe and secure

 I dont think so the metal card will be available after the token sales. It is part of the Founder's Edition so i think it will be premium for early contributors that is right now. You will be able to get the card for $10 or something new year as well. That is for those who purchase tokens from exchangers for Non ICO participants.

Get your tokens and your metal card guys! 16.9 mil tokens only available from 100mil.

Great project you all have going so far, I'll be in during token sale.  I read that there will be a upgrade mid2018 for blue to gold card upgrades?  Can you speak on this a bit more.  Thanks

Big difference, Centra has started shipping their cards to their users. Soon everyone will start using the centra cards. There will be 12 cryptoo currency in the Centra ecosystem The centra tokens can be used in the Centra ecosystem. Centra now offers 0.8% of all network transaction to its card and token holders. There will be a exchanger service that also offers USDT. Visa for US and Mastercard for the rest of the world. No issues whatsoever.

What else more you need my man.

You are right the principle is the same, but benefits differ for each card to a company that provides it.

Here is the detailed explanation/difference between the cards of different companies with Centra

Also, more details can be found on centra.tech.

What the core difference between Centra - Monaco - TenX - could you kindly explain? In my mind principle of all this cards the same. Thank you

It's wonderful news! I buy  420 CTR per 1 ETH, and now I see good profit for the short time. Really great project with unreal future!
