Do you use any cards with Bitcoin?
Here is what I know so far:
"CryptoPay
Offers virtual and plastic cards in USD, EUR and GBP. The cards work like any other debit card (powered by Visa) and there’s no difference in the experience in shops or online shopping. Virtual cards are especially awesome as I don’t even need to have them in my wallet, just the number (so they can’t be stolen or swiped).
Gift off
In two simple words: gift cards. This one was great when I wasn’t ready to go all in and get a prepaid card. So far I’ve used it once to buy an Amazon gift card, top up my own account, and order some second hand books.
Hold-backs: CryptoPay holds on to the private keys of their hosted bitcoin wallet, which is the only way to fund the cards. Additionally, funding the card with bitcoin and using it are two separate steps, which is in my opinion not optimal.
Bitrefill
A real treat was finding this cute, simple platform, offering prepaid phone top-ups billed in bitcoin. They seem to have a pretty broad offering of countries and phone providers."
