Pros and cons, side by side

Bybit Card

What works

  • No annual, monthly, or inactivity fee across every regional program
  • Cashback can reach 10% at the top VIP tier, higher than most competitors in this batch
  • Free virtual card issuance everywhere, with a roughly 5 EUR/USD physical card fee
  • EEA cardholders without VIP status now earn an uncapped flat 1% instead of a capped tiered rate

What to watch

  • Not one unified product: fees and terms differ sharply by region, and Argentina's FX fee runs as high as 7% plus a temporary padding hold
  • Turkey gets a virtual card only, with no physical card available
  • Reaching the top 8-10% cashback tiers requires Supreme VIP exchange status or very large monthly card spend ($12,500-$25,000)
  • Not available in the US, Canada, China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore or Australia

Fold Card (debit) and Fold Credit Card

What works

  • No annual fee on either the debit or the credit card
  • Credit card's 1.5% base Bitcoin-back rate is uncapped, unlike many competitors' capped tiers
  • Combining the Bitcoin-payment bonus and Boosted bonus can reach 4% on a meaningful chunk of monthly spend
  • No staking or token lockup required for any tier

What to watch

  • Restricted to US residents only, with no international availability on any Fold product
  • The debit card's spin-wheel mechanic makes real-world reward rates unpredictable purchase to purchase
  • The Boosted 2% bonus on the credit card applies only to the first $2,000 of monthly spend tied to specific qualifying activity
  • Fold+ debit subscription benefits are reportedly being restructured during 2026, creating uncertainty about which perks will persist
