Wirex virtual card : BTC/EURO confusing rate when loading VISA card with Euros

in crypto •  8 years ago 

I just was about to convert someBTC to upload the WIREX Euro VISA Virtual Card when I saw an strange change in the BTC/Euro rate offered, which I find a little bit confusing

The point is that the exchange rate changes while you are in the page , so at the end of the process you get less FIAT than you expected


So , if you were to exchange let's say 1 BTC to Euros

CoinMarketCap says you would get 2254 E

Wirex at first looks to give you 2175 E

But finally you would get 2092

So in the animation below you can see how these prices change


Is this happening just to me ?

Could be a bug?I dont know well what to think...
