Card overview
Pintopay is a Telegram card for spending USDT, and it publishes very little about itself. Since August 2026 there are two cards: Everyday (Freeman) for 35 USDT, with Apple Pay and Google Pay, and Digital (Open Life) for 15 USDT, meant for online services. Each refunds $10 to your balance. The wallet takes USDT or RUB, and the card loads from it at 2.5% per top-up.
FX fees, spending limits and the bank behind the card are not published. Issuing a card needs no documents, though the terms let Pintopay ask for verification at any time. USDT kept in the wallet earns up to 12% a year and staking up to 36%, but that money is not the card balance. The operator is UANT Global Corp. in Panama, and its terms of 9 August 2026 exclude Hong Kong residents and sanctioned jurisdictions; there is no other country list.
Reviews in 2026 reported delayed balances during a move to new infrastructure, and Pintopay has published no notice that the move is complete.
- Best fit
- USDT holders who want a Telegram card with Apple Pay and can live without a published fee sheet
- Wrong card if
- you want cashback, a known FX cost or published limits
