DiCard

DigiFinex · Mastercard

2.0/5 1.2/5 · Data verified on

DiCard is the Mastercard crypto card from the DigiFinex exchange, letting users spend crypto without manual fiat conversion and earning points redeemable for USDT (100 points = 1 USDT, roughly 1% cashback). Offered in Lite and Premier tiers with a 5 USD issuance fee (recorded here as 5 EUR for equivalence) and no annual fee. The FX spread (fx_markup_pct) is set to 0 because it is not publicly documented: the source does not state any foreign-exchange markup, so the real value remains unverified. The card does not support ATM withdrawals. Funds remain custodial with DigiFinex, a Seychelles-registered exchange.

Verdict

C D ★ 2.0/5 ★ 1.2/5 Estimated net annual cost: €0/year

Low protection: funds are held by DigiFinex, an exchange registered in Seychelles with a weak regulatory framework and no European payments licence. There are no guarantee schemes protecting customers if the issuer fails.

Very low sovereignty: a fully custodial card with mandatory full KYC, funds under the exchange's control and no self-custody option.
