The Bitget Card is a Visa debit card issued by Bitget, one of the world's top-10 crypto exchanges by volume. It enables Bitget users to spend their crypto holdings — including USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, and BGB (Bitget Token) — at any Visa-accepting merchant worldwide, with automatic real-time conversion at the point of sale.
Overview
Bitget launched its card offering as part of a broader strategy to become a full-service crypto financial platform — not just an exchange. The card is designed to reduce friction between holding crypto on the exchange and spending it in daily life. Like Bybit Card, it eliminates the need to manually transfer funds to a fiat bank before spending.
Bitget is headquartered in Seychelles and serves over 20 million users across 100+ countries. The card extends this reach by making exchange balances directly spendable globally.
Key Features
Zero Annual Fee
The Bitget Card has no annual fee and no monthly maintenance fee. This makes it cost-effective for users who want a crypto card for occasional use without committing to a subscription.
BGB Cashback Rewards
Cardholders earn cashback in BGB (Bitget Token) on eligible purchases. Users who hold BGB on the platform qualify for higher cashback tiers. BGB can be used to pay trading fees on Bitget at a discount, held for staking rewards, or exchanged for other assets.
Spending from Spot Wallet
The card draws directly from the user's Bitget spot wallet. Supported assets for spending include USDT, USDC, BTC, ETH, BGB, and other listed tokens. Users can set a preferred spending asset, and the card will prioritize that asset when processing transactions.
Virtual Card (Instant Issuance)
After completing KYC, users receive a virtual Visa card instantly. This card works for online purchases and mobile wallets immediately. The physical card option involves a shipping process with lead times varying by region.
Spending Limits
Standard daily and monthly spending limits apply based on KYC level. Base limits are typically $5,000/day and $20,000/month for standard verified users. Higher limits are available for premium users with advanced verification.
