@Michael - I would need more info on this please, will my shiny new VISA card stop working in October?!
Hi!
If you live in one of the currently supported countries your card will continue work after 15 Oct without any issues.
The full list of such countries can be checked over there:

But it is not a reason to start worrying as we have already announced our new contactless cards instead of them:

I was stupid enough to have some (small) amounts go once per week to the old address. It's weekly payment and I can't really change that. It won't last forever though.
1. Can I trigger by hand the transfer/move to do all in one batch and save some fees?
2. Do you have some "safety" measure in a way that by doing the transfer I don't actually lose money from my main address? (I talk about pretty small amounts)
Thank you.
Thank you! The issue with big blockchain fee should be gone and also starting now all our card loads don't have blockchain fee as well.
As for your questions:
We provided the new wallet for every customer and recommend to use only the new wallet. All old wallets are still active. Unfortunately, if the funds will be transferred to the old wallet the blockchain fee may apply for the internal transfer to the new wallet. It will be made automatically immediately after you will receive funds. So it will be every time in your case.
At the first time, this transfer to the new wallet should be free of charge and you shouldn't lose anything (the fees are on us). I'm not sure how long this "free period" will be.
I apologize for the inconvenience and can only recommend trying to change your receiving wallet to the new if it is possible.
