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.
Vivid Money
Vivid's consumer crypto card is alive and regulated: free-first physical Visa, 300+ coins from EUR 1 under a Dutch AFM MiCAR CASP licence (custody via Copper), 2% default crypto trading fee and plan-capped cashback. The B2B pivot is real but the personal product demonstrably operates - with a documented 2026 freeze/support complaint pattern typical of partner-rail neobanks.
