TP Card

TokenPocket · Visa / Mastercard

3.0/5 2.8/5 · Data verified on

TP Card is a self-custody debit card launched by TokenPocket together with a compliant Swiss banking partner (Fiat24), built on the Arbitrum blockchain with a 1:1 link between the on-chain wallet (an NFT bank account) and the card. It spends crypto by converting it to fiat at the point of purchase, with a Swiss IBAN plus SEPA and SWIFT rails. The ATM fee is set to 0 because cash withdrawals are not supported; the issuance fee is set to 0 because it is only a small share of the NFT minting cost, not documented in euro.

Strengths

  • Self-custody model: the card is linked 1:1 to the on-chain wallet, crypto stays under user control
  • No annual fee and 0% FX markup (only possible interbank settlement costs remain)
  • Full banking rails with Swiss IBAN, SEPA and SWIFT on Visa/Mastercard acceptance
  • Self-custody: funds stay in your wallet — the platform cannot touch them.

Weaknesses

  • No cashback or crypto rewards
  • 1% fee on every crypto deposit onto the card
  • No ATM withdrawal support and undisclosed transaction limits
  • Full KYC required: verified identity, zero pseudonymity.
  • Subject to regulation (TP Card banking services are provided by Fiat24 (SR Saphirstein AG), holder of a fintech banking license under Art. 1b of the Swiss Banking Act and supervised by FINMA since February 2021.): reporting to authorities and freezes on order.

Verdict

B C ★ 3.0/5 ★ 2.8/5 Estimated net annual cost: €0/year

High protection on the custody side: the TP Card is self-custody and crypto stays in the user's on-chain wallet, while the banking services (Swiss IBAN) rely on Fiat24, a FINMA-regulated partner. Full KYC is still required by the banking partner.

Good sovereignty: non-custodial model with a 1:1 link between the on-chain Arbitrum wallet and the card, keys stay with the user. Full KYC and reliance on a regulated banking partner partially reduce the cypherpunk profile.
