Ibandirect

[Mda]

Estonian EMI proposing built-in crypto exchange and debit card. Close competition against Spectrocoin, Advcash, Crypterium ?

Any experience with them, please share Pros & Cons.

According to what I checked, "Ibandirect" is the only one that provides the physical card to residents outside the UE. That's nice. I plan to test in the future.

Actually, both Crypterium and Advcash serve non EEA countries but Advcash is in "maintenance" for the card at the moment

For personal accounts, not business, there's also the multi-currency account from Dukascopy which issues and delivers physical cards to non EEA countries. Dukascopy Bank does not have a crypto exchange feature but allow transfers in and out of crypto exchanges

Spectrocoin is useful for the exchange from crypto to fiat, but it is a very old fashion system, I use it from time to time.

In fact, you now can deposit, withdraw, buy/sell and store crypto directly inside the Dukascopy Multi-currency account. More so, the bank is now testing the escrow account for crypto P2P transfers.

I am signing up for a card on ibandirect and it's asking me for a National ID number (TAX ID number) which I don't have.
Guess I'll pass on this option.

Does anyone have experience with Ibandirect, are they ok for transactions - receiving and sending money to crypto exchanges, do they give dedicated Iban who can receive 3rd party transfers?

I have just been approved - I totally forgot when I applied.
Anyone has experience with them? What can I do in exchange for 0.5% fee on every transaction?
