Bybit Card
The most aggressive rewards among exchange cards: 2-10% USDT cashback tiers, auto-interest on the card balance and 100% rebates on popular subscriptions - but it requires full exchange KYC and is explicitly unavailable in the EEA, and the platform carries the memory of the 2025 mega-hack it survived.
Coinbase Card
The safest pair of hands in the comparison: NASDAQ-listed issuer context, FDIC-member bank card, zero fees on USD/USDC spending and no staking requirement. The trade-offs: US-only (no Hawaii), rewards rates are variable in-app only, and non-USDC crypto spends trigger auto-sell with spread and taxes.
