Binance Card
Discontinued in the EEA since Dec 2023, but alive again in Latin America: relaunched Aug 2026 in Venezuela as an Immersve-issued Mastercard (waitlist beta, up to 3% cashback, crypto balance spent directly). Patchy acceptance during the beta (Apple Pay enrollment and some merchants fail); no EEA return announced.
Gemini Credit Card
The most regulated issuer context for a crypto-rewards credit card (NYDFS trust, WebBank-issued Mastercard World Elite): 4% gas/EV/transit, 3% dining, 2% groceries, 1% elsewhere, no annual fee, rewards in BTC or 50+ cryptos. It is a credit product (bureau approval, no crypto funding), US-only, and the issuer carries a 2025-2026 withdrawal-security-hold complaint pattern at the exchange level.
