Pick Gate Card if
- Higher documented cashback (8% vs 0)
- Physical card option
Pick PST.NET if
- you accept Full KYC KYC and its fee stack - and nothing else on this page outweighs it
Gate Card
The least documented program in this comparison: an exchange card whose issuer is not named anywhere on the product page, with no published fee schedule for issuance, monthly, top-up, FX or ATM, cashback paid as points redeemable for USDT/GT rather than as cash, and an availability statement ("non-restricted countries or regions") without a published list. Instant Spend Mode can pay directly from a BTC balance and the 8% points headline is large - but until the issuer, the fee table and the conversion timing are published, every number on the page is an advertisement, not a fact.
PST.NET
A niche virtual-card service for online/media-buying use cases with crypto funding - usable for its purpose, but tier subscriptions, per-card fees and the niche positioning make it a poor general spending card.
