Stablecoin account + Visa card
A free virtual Visa Platinum debit card funded through Kolo's custodial card-spend wallet. The individual USD card earns 2% BTC cashback for 30 days, then 1%, while the app supports crypto sends, eligible card withdrawals and outbound EUR SEPA transfers. Every card payment from a digital-asset balance costs 1%; when cross-currency conversion is required, Kolo states another 1% FX add-on applies in the same transaction.
Marketed in 170+ countries; exact card signup eligibility is confirmed during registration.

Start with the recurring plan cost, funding, FX and cash-access fees. These numbers drive most of the real-world cost.
02 · Rewards programme
Kolo Card currently pays 2% BTC cashback during the first 30 days and 1% afterwards. Rewards apply after qualifying transactions clear; caps are not publicly disclosed, and the terms allow the programme to change or end.
