dtcpay Digital Treasures Card

dtcpay · Visa Infinite

3.6/5 1.3/5 · Data verified on

The dtcpay Digital Treasures Card is a Visa Infinite debit card issued by Digital Treasures Center Pte Ltd, a Major Payment Institution licensed by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (license PS20200531), that converts stablecoins (such as USDT and USDC) into fiat to spend at over 150 million merchants across 220 countries. Card issuance and annual use are free, and dtcpay states there is no additional FX markup on international transactions on its official site (a third-party source, todey.xyz, instead reports an international fee of up to 1.6%, a figure not confirmed by the issuer). There is no recurring cashback program: the value set to 0 reflects the absence of documentation on ongoing cashback (only occasional time-limited promotions). The ATM fee is documented as a flat charge (~$1.50 per transaction) rather than a percentage, so the atm_fee_pct field is omitted. The card is custodial and requires full KYC.

Verdict

B D ★ 3.6/5 ★ 1.3/5 Estimated net annual cost: €0/year

Issuer regulated as a Major Payment Institution by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (license PS20200531), with strong supervisory oversight but funds not covered by bank-style deposit guarantee schemes.

Fully custodial model with full KYC and no on-chain settlement: the user does not retain direct control of the keys, low sovereignty.
