Bitget Card: Unlocking the World of Crypto
Since the release of Bitcoin's whitepaper, cryptocurrencies have been a revolutionary force in the financial realm, challenging traditional notions of money and transactions. Their decentralized nature, security, and potential for growth have captured the imagination of investors and enthusiasts worldwide. However, despite the rapid adoption of cryptocurrencies, a significant gap remains between the crypto realm and everyday spending.
This gap stems from the fact that most merchants still do not accept cryptocurrencies directly. As a result, crypto users often face the inconvenience and expense of converting their crypto to fiat currency before making purchases. This process, known as "off-ramping," can be time-consuming, costly, and complex, especially for those new to the world of crypto.
Crypto Cards: A New Era of Financial Freedom
Enter crypto cards, a brainchild of the fintech revolution: payment cards that allow users to directly spend their cryptocurrencies without the hassle of converting them to fiat currency. These cards offer a plethora of advantages, including:
-
Convenience: Crypto cards eliminate the need for manual transactions and conversions, saving users time and transaction fees.
-
Security: Crypto cards employ robust security measures to safeguard users' funds, ensuring peace of mind during transactions.
-
Rewards: Many crypto cards offer rewards programs that incentivize users with cashback or other benefits for using their cards.

Examples of Using Bitget Card In Your Every-Day Transactions
Below are some examples of how to incorporate Bitget Card into your daily life. Please note that:
-
when using the Bitget Card, which enables direct spending of USDT from your Bitget funding account, every transaction will result in a 0.9% crypto conversion fee.
-
you might notice that there's a frozen amount of 20% higher than the actual transaction amount. This extra 20% acts as a security measure to guarantee that there are enough funds to cover any potential fees or charges that may come up during the transaction. Once the transaction is completed, the frozen amount will be returned automatically. The unfreezing process usually occurs as soon as the transaction is cleared, but it may take some time to be reflected in your Bitget Card balance due to Visa and/or bank processing.
Case 1: USD Transaction
-
Transaction Amount: $1,000
-
Crypto Conversion Fee: 0.9%
-
Calculation: Crypto conversion fee = $1,000 x 0.9% = $9

Total fee is then $9

-
Transaction Amount: $1,000 worth of Euros
-
Crypto Conversion Fee: 0.9%

Foreign Transaction Fee: 0.5% (Bitget) + 1% (Visa and card issuer)
-

-
Total fee is then $24
Case 3: USD ATM Withdrawal
-
Withdrawal Amount: $500
-
Crypto Conversion Fee: 0.9%
-
ATM Withdrawal Fee: $0.65 + 2%
-
Calculation:
-
Crypto conversion fee = $500 x 0.9% = $4.5
-
Withdrawal fee = $0.65 + 2% x $500 = $10.65
-
Total fee is then $15.15
Case 4: Non-USD ATM Withdrawal
