The Binance Card, First Crypto Exchange Debit Card
The Binance card, as it’s likely to be known is issued by Visa and according to the official announcement, is accepted by over 46 million merchants globally and in over 200 countries. Binance users will be able to shop for their desired goods both in physical stores and online marketplaces and will be able to swipe their Binance cards to pay for their acquired commodities while paying cryptocurrencies.
Similar to a banking debit card, Binance cardholders must have a Binance account to which their cards are connected through an App. Balances on this card are directly tied to the account balance of the corresponding Binance account and completely correlated.
Also, Binance claims to have made it easy to top up the cards. The process follows a top-up of the card App via bitcoins or BNB. This automatically makes the funds available in the card App which can then be transferred to the card for shopping.
The described App is yet unavailable. Although, users can now order their physical cards through registration on a landing page. This process will lead to the acquisition of the physical card, which is later sent for a one-time payment of $15 worth of BTC or BNB.
