Topic: OrangeFren.com - instant, KYC-free, exchange comparison - page 6. (Read 2848 times)

I know people who are much more interested in having more non-kyc prepaid cards, both virtual and physical.
There are more than enough websites offering crypto gift cards for shopping only in specific stores.

It looks so tiny like it can be used with keys on keychain.
Do you know exact dimensions by any chance, I couldn't find it on their website.

Today we received a free Capsule from our friends in Cryptosteel <3

Thank you Cryptosteel

Pro tip: Although they were designed for Bitcoin's 24 word mnemonics they support Monero's 25 words just fine too!



We never ask for donations, but recently we received an anonymous message requesting we post an address. So we posted an XMR one in the footer of our page right next to the link to our affiliate programme. Much to our surprise we received a lot since.

Thank you! 🧡💚

It's great to see that the Monero community supports its favourite projects. To those who haven't donated, please don't feel obligated to!

Merci beaucoup! <3

Sure, once Haveno is mature enough, and there's an API available, we'll be happy to integrate it.

Thanks! We're planning on having more cards soon. Are you more interested in general-purpose prepaid cards or gift cards for specific stores?

Are you planning to add HavenoDex exchange offers in future?
This is another alternative recently launched as fork of Bisq exchange, that should in theory have cheaper fees.
I noticed Bisq page on their website that showed market trades is now gone, I hope this is nothing serious but it could be.

PS
I like the changes you made recently including new forum, and it would be great if you could offer more options for no-kyc cards (with different partners).

This thread is now translated in French:  OrangeFren.com - comparaison de services sans KYC 

Today we bid our farewell to AgoraDesk 💔

On OrangeFren.com we list 5 alternatives for our users:

👉 Relai - OTC trading desk with no KYC up to 1000 EUR/CHF per day. Bitcoin-only

👉 Bitnik - OTC trading desk with KYC, but no CRS reporting. Support for all major currencies (crypto & fiat)

👉 Stealths - Global 🌍 & US 🇺🇸 prepaid cards

👉 Bisq - (cumbersome) DEX with support for fiat & crypto

👉 OrangeFren Broker Partner - contact info to a trusted broker providing cash for crypto in major cities (excl. 🇺🇸) without KYC

You'll find these options in the Buy & Sell tabs 🔎

Giveaway thread: https://forum.orangefren.com/showthread.php?tid=10

Small bump, as we have more or less 1 day left to participate to the ticket giveaway!

I will be for sure in Monerokon, but my question about recording the meetup was about the one in Lugano that you organize

Good luck with the giveaway, I hope you'll be able to attend! Unfortunately we don't have any plans to record the meetup, but Monerokon is recorded in its entirety usually.

If you just have the ref links for the most popular services then I wouldn't bother creating ones for the others. Top 2-3 services collect >80% of the traffic and you don't need more than 1 ref link to use the OrangeFren Affiliate Programme

Here's some good news!
I've signed up and applied for the Monerokon giveaway; it's a great initiative; thanks again to you and eXch for the opportunity!
Unfortunately I'll be far from Lugano at the end of May, I'd have liked to attend the meet-up. Will it be recorded or something for those who missed the party? 

Your affiliate system looks cool, I will give it a try even if I have only 2 referrals links for now lol

Hello frens! We have a lot of news so we'll be breaking this post up into sections.

🤝 OrangeFren Affiliate Programme
Lastly, we're excited to announce the OrangeFren Affiliate Programme 🤝

The programme works by you providing us with your existing ref links to any of the services we list on the website. Then, when a user visits OrangeFren.com using your link, we'll replace our ref links with yours for all the services that you provided us your link for.

This means, your profit share is 100%! And we never hold custody of your affiliate earnings.

You'll find the link to join the footer of OrangeFren.com

Indeed... The law changed just as we integrated them. Well, at least we still have non-3DS cards that can be added to Google Pay and Apple Pay and used in-store. As well as the OrangeFren Broker Partner that can deliver physical cash to you in most large European cities.

We're working on a solution to this very problem. It'll be public by the end of the week

I guess no more 3ds-enabled cards after recent update from Stealths partners 

It's open source hardware wallet, bearer, and seedphrase storage in format of credit card.
Cool thing that you can even use blank sim java cards and load firmware:

There must be some better alternative for trustpilot.
I saw so many fake reviews for services there, and many scam websites also used trustpilot with bunch of paid reviews.

We were asked by some users to create a way to leave a feedback about OrangeFren.com.

So, today we joined TrustPilot. If you used OrangeFren.com before and would like to leave a review then you can do see here: trustpilot.com/review/orangefren.com

For now it's the same. In the future we will add more cards and negotiate better terms for our users. As to modifying the website, yes, good point. Added to the todo list.

If you're traveling to a dangerous location I would advise you to take an old phone to carry around. You could load up this old phone with such a virtual card. I never heard of Satochip, I'll look into it.

Is this the same as buying directly from Stealths website, in terms of fees and everything else?
One suggestion is to think about doing some redesign of OrangeFren website, to make it easier to know this cards actually exist

Sure, but this is virtual card, not physical, so you would probably have to give them your smartphone (with this card) and everything else you have.
Maybe better to also carry some old and empty cards, blank cards are very cheap and they can also be used as DIY open source hardware wallets and encrypted seed storage (with Satochip)

Today we added 3DS-enabled prepaid Visa cards

No KYC 😎, global coverage (incl. EU🇪🇺) in-store and online. They work just about everywhere we tested. You can add them to Google Wallet or Apple Pay. There's a one-time 5% fee when you buy them, but 0% currency conversion fees thereafter. They won't work in ATMs.

I suggest getting one when you travel✈️ or for your kid 👪. For instance I recently traveled to Buenos Aires and a friend I went with was robbed at gunpoint right next to me. But with a prepaid card you can keep your main card in the hotel safe and only loose a few bucks.

Find them in the Sell tab when you select USD 🔍

Try it out on OrangeFren.com 🧡💚

_{It goes without saying that even though these products do not require KYC you still ought to report the sale of crypto if your local laws require you to do so, as well as pay any applicable capital gains taxes. 🧑‍⚖️}

Crazy that I predicted very similar bitcoin price in different competition. 
Congrats to guy who won this reward

Thank you for that, I appreciate it.
Both OrangeFren and eXch are doing some amazing things, not just with giveaways, but in general how you are operating and working in this crazy conditions of the brave new world.

The winner of the r/CC giveaway has been selected (/u/yankeeedooodle) and the prize of 0.5 BTC was delivered to him. Thank you to all who participated!
