Prepaid cards

Spend crypto anywhere Visa or Mastercard works

Pay in crypto, get a prepaid Visa or Mastercard by email, up to 1000 USD or EUR, with no documents at activation.

A StealthSwap card order works like a swap: you send crypto from your own wallet and the card arrives as a redeem code in your email. The cards are issued through our card issuing partner, carry a Visa or Mastercard brand, and spend like any other prepaid card.

Activation asks for a name, an email, an address and a phone number, and no documents. Once active, a card can be added to Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay.

Read this before you buy

Country restrictions are enforced, not suggested: redeeming from a restricted country voids any refund, and VPNs and proxies are rejected outright by the card provider. The redeem code goes to the email you give at checkout and nowhere else, so losing that inbox loses the card. You accept exactly these three facts before paying.

How it works

From crypto to card, step by step

A card order works like a swap: you get a deposit address and an exact amount, and the order status updates itself on this page. The card arrives by email once the issuer generates it.

  1. 1

    Pick a card

    Choose the currency, the brand and one of the fixed face values on offer, up to 1000 USD or EUR. The denominations are set by our card issuing partner and the value shown is exactly the value the card carries.

  2. 2

    Accept the three facts

    Before paying you accept three things in writing: redeeming from a restricted country voids any refund, VPNs and proxies are rejected by the card provider, and losing access to your email loses the card. They are shown up front because every one of them is final.

  3. 3

    Pay in crypto

    You get a deposit address and an exact crypto amount, the same way a swap works. Send it from your own wallet before the window closes. The quoted amount is the full price of the order, and there is nothing further to pay us.

  4. 4

    Redeem from your email

    The redeem code and activation link arrive by email from our card issuing partner. That can take a few hours, so check the spam folder before assuming anything failed. Redeem from a country the card allows, on a real connection, never through a VPN or proxy.

No KYC

A virtual card with crypto, and no documents

There is no identity check to buy one. Activation asks basic contact details and nothing else, which is why the honest limits below matter more than they would on a card that knows who you are.

No documents

Activation asks for a name, an email, an address and a phone number. No ID document, no selfie, no proof of address.

No account here

Nothing to sign up for on our side. You pick a card, pay in crypto from your own wallet, and the redeem code lands in your email.

Real Visa and Mastercard

The cards carry a Visa or Mastercard brand, spend like any other prepaid card, and can be added to Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay.

What you do need

Crypto in a wallet you control, an email inbox you will keep access to, and a real connection in a country the card allows. That is the entire list.

Cost

What a card costs

Every figure below is the issuer's own published number, and the crypto amount quoted before you pay already contains the issue fee. There is nothing further to pay us.

Card face value

Exactly what it says

A 100 USD card is worth 100 USD. Face values are fixed whole denominations set by our card issuing partner, never numbers we invent, and the value you pick is the value the card carries.
One time issue fee

Around 3 percent

Charged once when the card is issued, and it varies a little between issuing companies. The crypto amount quoted before you pay already contains it, so the quote is the whole price.
Currency conversion

About 2 percent, or 0.75 percent on some cards

Charged by the issuer only when you spend in a currency other than the card's own. Spend a USD card in USD, or a EUR card in EUR, and it never applies.
Network fees

Paid by the sender

The crypto payment is a real transaction on a public chain and carries that chain's fee, exactly like a swap deposit.
The fine print, first

The facts that cost money when learned late

Each of these fires only after you have paid, which is why they are stated here, in the widget, and in the acceptance you give before any address is shown.

Restricted countries are enforced, not suggested

Every card carries a list of countries where it cannot be used, and some carry a shorter list of the only countries where it may be used. Using a card from a restricted country can get the card blocked.

Redeeming from a restricted country voids any refund. That is the most expensive mistake this product allows, which is why it is stated here, at checkout, and in the acceptance you give before paying.

The card provider rejects VPNs and proxies outright. There is no working around the country list, and attempting it is how a card gets blocked with no refund behind it.

The email is the card

The redeem code is delivered to the email address you give at checkout, and nowhere else. Losing access to that inbox loses the card, and nobody can resend the code, including us.

The email comes from our card issuing partner, not from us, and can take a few hours to arrive. Check the spam folder before assuming a failure.

What activation asks, and what it does not

Activation asks for a name, an email, an address and a phone number. It does not ask for identity documents.

The cards do not support 3D Secure. A merchant that requires it will decline the card, so a small number of online stores will not accept it.

What we can and cannot do

StealthSwap handles the crypto payment and your order status. The card itself is issued through our card issuing partner: we never see the card number or the redeem code, and we cannot freeze, reload, resend or recover a card once it has been delivered.

Availability, denominations, fees and country restrictions are set by the issuer and can change between orders. What you accept at checkout is what applies to that order.

FAQ

Prepaid card questions

How big can a card be?
Up to 1000 USD or 1000 EUR, in fixed denominations set by our card issuing partner. A larger spend means buying more than one card.
Do I need documents?
No. Activation asks for a name, an email, an address and a phone number, and nothing else.
How fast does the card arrive?
The crypto payment confirms at normal chain speed, and the redeem email can then take a few hours. It comes from our card issuing partner, not from us, so watch the inbox you gave at checkout and its spam folder.
Can I use it with Apple Pay or Google Pay?
Yes. Cards can be added to Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay once activated.
What happens if I redeem through a VPN?
The card provider rejects VPNs and proxies, and redeeming from a restricted country voids any refund. Use a real connection in a country the card allows.
Can you resend my redeem code?
No. It is sent to the email you gave at checkout and nowhere else, and we never hold a copy. If you lose that inbox, the card is lost with it, which is why you accept exactly that fact before paying.
Why was my card declined at a store?
The two common reasons are a merchant that requires 3D Secure, which these cards do not support, and use from a country on the card's restricted list, which can also get the card blocked.

Ready when you are

Pick a card at the top of this page, pay from your own wallet, and watch the order settle live. If it is your first card here, start with a small denomination and redeem it before you trust the flow with more.

Prepaid cards are issued through our card issuing partner and its issuing companies, not by StealthSwap. Availability, denominations, fees and country restrictions are set by the issuer and can change. Crypto payments are real transactions on public chains and cannot be reversed once sent. StealthSwap does not hold card balances, does not guarantee acceptance at any particular merchant, and does not give financial, legal or tax advice.
