A cryptocurrency card is a type of debit or payment card that allows users to make payments directly from a personal cryptocurrency wallet without transferring control of the assets to a third party.
4 features of cryptocurrency cards

How does a crypto card work?

- When making a purchase, the cryptocurrency is automatically converted into fiat currency via decentralised platforms or instant exchange services.
- The transaction is carried out using a conventional POS system and usually supports Google Pay and Apple Pay.
3 advantages of cryptocurrency payment cards

4 disadvantages
For beginners, it can be difficult to understand the nuances of decentralised wallets.
Most offers are virtual cryptocurrency cards, which makes it difficult to cash out the balance.
In case of loss of the private key, the balance cannot be restored.
Some payment platforms or regions may not support such cards.
Plastic and virtual cryptocurrencies are gaining popularity due to the combination of the freedom of decentralised finance and the convenience of traditional payment systems.
