PlasBit
A crypto-banking platform whose card program requires verification before use - a verify listing, not a recommendation.
Uphold Card
Back and verifiable: the Uphold Debit Card relaunched in the US with up to 4% back in XRP (Elite, $99.99/yr) or 2% (Essential, free), Visa acceptance with Apple/Google Pay, no credit check and FDIC pass-through on the USD balance. The trade-offs: rewards are XRP-denominated with conditions (holding periods, monthly caps), the program's history is pause-and-restart, and support tickets show crediting/adjustment friction. US-only (no NY/LA/territories).
