Card Overview
High-ceiling crypto-prepaid card aimed at OTC desks and high-net-worth spenders, with both Visa and Mastercard virtual and physical formats from a Hong Kong-licensed partner. Spending ceilings are unusually high: $300,000/month and $10,000/day. Issuance and annual fee are both free. The constraint worth reading carefully sits on funding. USDT is the only top-up currency accepted onto the card, and there's a 12-hour processing window before funds become spendable. Withdrawal fees kick in above $1,000/month. The wallet supports BTC, ETH, and USDC, but spending those means swapping to USDT inside PintoPay first, which adds a conversion step. No cashback at any tier. No published documentation on FX, ATM fees, or specific country fee schedules beyond the standard 1-2% Visa/Mastercard FX. KYC is described as minimal for basic tiers. Conventional custody. Coverage spans 38 countries including EEA, UK, US, Canada, Brazil, Israel, Turkey, and several others. Best fit: businesses or high-net-worth individuals who route real volume through USDT and need ceilings most consumer cards cannot match. Wrong card if you want cashback, multi-asset funding, or a published fee sheet you can budget against.
