Krak Card (Kraken)
Kraken's consumer debit card: hold BTC (and 600+ other assets) in the Krak account and spend via an editable Spend Order that auto-converts at authorization on the Mastercard rate - no markup, no monthly fee, free plastic, metal for 50k balances, instant tiered cashback up to 2% in fiat or sats. Costs hide in the variable conversion spread, the default Rewards tier earns nothing, and spend/ATM limits are not published.
Revolut
The mainstream choice if you want crypto spend inside a full banking app - regulated, mature, multi-plan - but it is a bank card with a crypto side-feature: auto-conversion spreads, plan-based crypto fees and taxable disposals at every payment are the trade-offs.
