Eligible crypto purchases earn 1% back in the asset spent; stablecoins, metals and EUR earn no cashback, and asset sale charges and restrictions on predominantly EUR use apply.
Main strengths
Main trade-offs
01 · Core economics
The first physical card and monthly plan have no Bitpanda fee. Paying from crypto or metals incurs asset sale fees; ATM withdrawals cost 2%, with a €2 minimum.
02 · Rewards programme
Eligible crypto-funded purchases earn 1% back in the crypto spent, normally within 15 business days after processing. Stablecoins, EUR, metals, ATM withdrawals and excluded merchant categories earn no cashback. A programme-wide cashback cap is not disclosed.
Lowest current purchase reward rate
Same as the current base rate
Same eligible cryptocurrency used for payment
Unknown caps are not treated as unlimited
03 · Everyday use
