Our take on SwissBorg Card
SwissBorg's card connects to its investing app, so you can pay with any of more than 100 assets. Most users get a virtual Mastercard for Apple Pay or Google Pay, and physical cards are rolling out in phases.
Conversions run through SwissBorg's Smart Engine, which charges a trading fee. BORG stakers can get up to 99% of that fee back, and cashback is paid in BORG by loyalty rank. Sources still disagree on ATM access, so don't count on cash withdrawals yet.
A natural fit for SwissBorg and BORG holders. Others will find simpler, cheaper cards.
