Coinbase Card Free

A plan byCoinbase Card · Visa

4.3/5 · Data verified on

The Coinbase Card is a Visa debit card linked to your Coinbase wallet, with up to 4% cashback in the crypto of your choice. It is backed by the institutional strength of a NASDAQ-listed company holding over $220B in custody, but it applies a 2.49% FX markup — among the highest in the sector — which erodes the cashback advantage on foreign spending.
