Access Your Bitcoin Using the Wirex Bitcoin Debit Card.

in #bitcoin8 years ago

One of the most common questions we hear is, "How do you use your Bitcoin?" One of the arguments against Bitcoin in the past was that it was not liquid. Meaning it was difficult to use in everyday transactions. Over the last few years entrepreneurs have been hard at work coming up with ways to make it easier to use Bitcoin.

We chose the Wirex (Formerly E-Coin) because of the good reviews. Sadly this card is not available in the USA. The options for Americans is severely restricted. For the rest of you living in free countries you have many options for a Bitcoin debit card. The WirexApp Bitcoin cards are available. The card is a Mastercard. It can be used to make payments online with the virtual card or you can get the physical card mailed to you. Use the DHL method and it will arrive within a week.

How Do I Use a Bitcoin Debit Card Like Wirex?

  • Receive payments in Bitcoin.
  • Receive Payments in Steem and use Shapeshift or any other Crypto Currency and convert to Bitcoin.
  • Send Bitcoin to the Wirex Bitcoin wallet.
  • Transfer Bitcoin to your physical Wirex Bitcoin Debit Card.
  • Use it everywhere Mastercard is accepted.

The Crypto Currency Economy is Growing.

Everyday Bitcoin and the Crypto Currency economy are gaining new users. Here in Latin and South America Crypto Currencies are being adopted at incredible rates. I personally believe that a Bitcoin debit card connected to the old banking system is just a temporary fix until more options of using Bitcoin become available.

You no longer have an excuse to not accept Bitcoin and Crypto Currency as a form of payment for your business. Order a Bitcoin debit card today.

Bravo! thank you very much for excellent information disseminate

Thank You! I hope you order one of the cards above do you can start using all the Steem you will be accumulating. ; )

If I were to order this card in an allowable country, and then take a trip to the US, would I be able to use it here?

I don't see why not. Sounds like a plan.

Sounds great, I'm still trying to fathom out how to cash out, wish they would make it easier :)

It is very easy here in Latin America. In the USA Coinbase can be attached to your bank account.

I'm in the UK :(

Then you are all set. Wirex works great there.

I will have to do some research then thank you : )

It's actually not to bad once you set it up. All you need to do is join somewhere that offers a credit card that you can load bitcoin to. I use cryptopay. You register and then buy a card, I think it's like fifteen quid. They send it out and once you have it you can send bitcoin to it and easily put it on the card for spending. If you ever need anything help message me in chat if you like?

I will do thank you : )

Good post, annoying that only shift is available in the US

Yup, the country of monopolies.

I blame trump don't ask me why

Not true, Bitpay offers a bitcoin debit card as well.
