We all need off ramps for our digital currencies! For the first time I'll be transferring some of my "hard earned" (actually it's been lot's of fun) SBD to my new debit card and using it for my upcoming vacation! A Steemcation! What a Blast!
Disclaimer: If you check my third ever post I did withdraw some SBD at a Bitcoin machine and bought some drinks for my family just to prove that all of this was real! Please see: Can an Old (Entrepreneurial) Dog Learn New Crypto Tricks? Part Three
Why Did I Pick The Advanced Cash Debit Card?
- They came highly recommended by a very crypto experienced and technically skilled Steemit member!
- They offer cash loading in either Euro or U.S. dollars. I need Euro!
- It can be used to withdraw cash from any MasterCard-enabled ATM and for shopping with any merchant that supports MasterCard.
- For verified card holder's the limits are extremely high! $100,000 per day, $250,000 per month and $10,000 per transaction. You can also transfer up to $999,000 to other Advanced Cash Card Holders per day and month with a $99,999 per transaction limit! I can't ever imagine needing those limits. One can however dream!
What Are The Fees Like?
- First of all the card cost me only 4.99 EUR and it arrived in about a week! They said within 8 weeks on FAQ's
- To withdraw funds in either U.S. dollars or EUR the fee is 1.99
- Purchases in U.S. dollars or EUR are free of charge.
When Am I Going to Use The Card?
It arrived today but my vacation starts in a few weeks so I'll wait a while and hopefully the price of SBD will go up a bit. There are different funding options but SBD and Steem are not among them so I'll have to trade to Bitcoin and then to SBD.
Would You Like to See How The Card Arrived?
I thought so!
Here are the front and the back of the envelope:
Nice and discreet! Just as it should be!
This is what was inside the envelope:
It only took me a few moments to activate the card and I'm good to go!
So What's Next?
- In the next little while I'll be loading the card with some SBD
- I'll use that money on my upcoming vacation! My Steemcation!
- I'll write a review of the card in action!
What About You?
- Do you have a debit card for your digital currencies?
- Have you been spending any of your Steem?
- Are you looking for an off ramp solution?
I hope that you enjoyed this article about how "My New Crypto Debit Card Has Arrived Just in Time For My Steemcation!"

I would be very interested in hearing a report of your experience were you to try a small test load from SBD to Bitcoin, then to your card and withdraw as cash fiat at a local ATM.
Would you give us a description of that experience in the near future? (it might even be a good idea to test it out before you want to use this card on your upcoming vacation).

You're in Australia right? You could use this card and withdraw your funds in Aussie currency but you would be a small percentage for the exchange. I withdrew 50 Swiss Francs from an ATM in Switzerland yesterday and it cost me about a Euro xtra. Most likely you can find a card that works well for you there. Why not psot an articel about it and see if any suggestions come along?

If in Australia you could use Coinjar Swipe. It is EFTPOS only, so no good for online purchases, but I have been buying groceries with it for months now. It makes my play Monopoly money really feel real.
If you load with bitcoin there is no fee (other than spread) and 1% otherwise.

Mister @kus-knee, this is excellent timing! I'm planning on getting a debit card for my crypto's in the next months, and I was wondering which one to pick. I was leaning towards Wirex before this, but I'm going to check out your link for this card aswell :-)

WOW! Congratulations @kus-knee for getting such a high-tech looking advanced card 👌 🤝 🎊 🎉 ! With this it looks like you have slightly solidified your Steem to make it more liquid for some tangible use. Happy Steemcationing to you 👍!
No, no, no are my answers to all three of your questions raised here. I don't have any such card as it's not being issued in my country India yet, nor do I have any Steem to spend to. And yes, I ain't even looking for such an off ramp solution. 😎 😎 😎
However, I ain't sure to my answer to the last question. Perhaps I dunno much about this 😱🤔. Why should I keep my crypto-currencies in the form of a fiat currency to load onto this cards🤔? I'd have probably loved a solution where card could also act as some wallet to store the digital currency and instantaneously convert them to fiat at the time of payment. Otherwise, I can as well use the debit cards issued by my bank against my savings account. Just like you load this card with BTC, I need to sale those BTC and withdraw (or load) it to my account. And that I can use it with my debit card or a virtual card.
I guess what these cards do is automatize the conversion of BTC to EUR and load it to the card. But I'd like to be in control of where (in which exchange) this transaction is taking place. Am I missing something here? 🤔
I only hope that it won't be too long that these cards would start accepting Steem directly, saving the step to convert it to BTC. And hopefully there would soon be a time when we won't necessarily need to convert any cryptos into fiat. I'm looking forward to that time ...when I won't need to stand in the ATM queue with my crypto-card 💰 💳! I don't want my cryptos to be converted to fiat but they should be accepted as they are.
Until such time, you would definitely need such cards for your steemcations 🤑. I'd prefer to save my cryptos till they get widely acceptable as cryptos only. No liquid, just Steem! 😊

This is freaking awesome!! not that I would ever need one because I doubt I will ever grow my account to the point a card would be viable..
That said having something like this that you can load with SDB and use in ATMs is possibly the best possible advertizing for steemit and steem as a whole, when people see you directly paying for things with a card loaded with SBD they know its legit and I bet a whole load of new people will join after seeing people get cold hard cash:)

Nice. I have a Advcash virtual debit card and use it for USD and EUR denominated online purchases.
I also use a CoinJar EFTPOS card for physical purchases in my own local currency (AUD). I am waiting for a crypto card in AUD. So far, most are USD, EUR or GBP and have a 3% foreign exchange fee, which has turned me off.
I presume the 3% goes to Visa/Mastercard, which is all the more reason to try to encourage vendor to directly accept crypto. Would make everything cheaper and easier.

Hindsight is great, isn't? I too have regrets there. I bought some HERO, but not as many as I should. The thinking goes, why sell at 40 cents if you think it is going to $1. I am now diversifying my portfolio with larger portions of stable crypto as prices increase. Little by little is my strategy for risk management. That way, if I sell a small portion at 15 cents and it goes to 30 cents, I'll still be happy knowing I have locked in some profit, but still have exposure to future price rises.

@ cryptodan mentioned this in one of this posts: "There is also Mycelium, Plutus, Monaco, TokenCard. I would go with the TenX Card, it seems like they are the furthest in the development atm and their crowdsale showed that they are very popular"

Oh cool! I need such a card too :-) No SBD at the moment, but who knows what happens in the next months.
My solution now is... send to Bittrex... change to BTC or ETH... send to Coinbase... send to bank... withdraw cash... drink a cup of Joe ;-)

There are various services that will transfer between currencies if you specify the destination wallet. I've used Blocktrades before to get SBD to a Bitcoin card. It went through in about 20 minutes I think

i am just a little nervous about the whole thing, its not fear of the currency or the fluctuations its fear of my lack of ability so navigate the digital world effectively and not loose my ass, somebody needs to start a service where i can just give them my cash and let them set up and maintain and educate me. kinda like a digital stock broker.

You do need to be careful. Get a complicated Bitcoin address wrong and you can lose your money. I heard of someone who got some malware that would change a Bitcoin address in the clipboard so you sent it to their account. Scary stuff. I'm sure someone will take your money to provide such a service, but the joy of crypto is that you shouldn't need them.

Where are you located? If you're in the USA many members use Bitpay. I selected this card becasue I'm in the Eurozone. When transferring Bitcoin it can take up more than half an hour to get the confirmations. I also use blocktrade.us to go from SBD or Steem to Bitcoin.

I'm still in the building phase of my account. I don't plan on withdrawing anything for at least a few months, but I will be buying one of these visa/MC cards so I am prepared.

I use one from England called www.Cryptopay.me I don't know if their rates are comparable to the others but it does work in China and once I have BTC in their wallet I can convert it to Pounds, Euros or US dollars so if I'm travelling around I can actually chose the currency the card is using with click of of a button.
Maybe all the crypto cards can do that. I do enjoy using it here but the card is ugly, no style. lol I should put a sticker on it.

Thank you for the info: AdvancedCash sounds like a great product indeed, and I never heard about it before.
To spend my SBD/Steem I recently ordered a debit card from N21 bank: it's a fiat money debit card (so I'll need to convert Bitcoin in euro to load it) but I was really satisfied about it: no piece of paper, no bureaucracy, low fees, in two weeks the card arrived to my home. Plus it comes with an IBAN code, just like an ordinary European bank account.
