Pick Nexo Card if

  • Physical card option

Pick OKX Card if

  • Known fee stack (0.2 vs 0.0 % equivalents on a $500/mo profile)

Nexo Card

The most complete dual-mode card: one tap switches between spending your crypto (Debit, with daily interest) and borrowing against it (Credit, from 1.9%) - with free ATM allowances up to EUR 2,000/month and no card fees. The catch: meaningful cashback needs a $5,000+ portfolio and is denominated in NEXO, and it is EEA/UK-only.

OKX Card
