Card overview
Wound down quietly, no notice. The blockchain.com/card page returned 404 when we checked in May 2026, the card link is gone from the main navigation and footer, and Blockchain.com has not posted an official discontinuation notice. The legacy product was a USA-only custodial Visa Debit excluding eight states (HI, LA, NJ, NY, NV, TN, TX, VA), with free issuance, no annual fee, 0% FX, ATM $500/day, funded from 200+ cryptos held in a Blockchain.com wallet via auto-conversion at point of sale. Both Apple Pay and Google Pay worked.
The referral program had already been paused before the wind-down. Cashback details on the legacy card were inconsistently published across sources, so we won't claim a specific rate. Blockchain.com Earn yield products still operate independently of the card, so existing exchange-account users have a place to park balances without the spending instrument. Best fit: nobody.
This isn't an active product. If you want a similar US-only custodial card tied to a major exchange wallet, the Coinbase Card and Gemini Credit Card are the closest live options in our catalogue.
