Mine CardMine Card
MastercardVirtual and plasticA Swiss IBAN in your own name attached to a balance that is actually USDC in your own wallet: money arrives by SEPA, settles on-chain, and a Mastercard converts it at the moment of purchase — Mine never custodies a cent, so nobody can freeze it.
84 of the 174 priced cards cost less. Among the 113 that ask for exactly as much identity, the median is $1.23.
Whether to take Mine Card
In its favour
- Self-custody is the default, not a setting — your balance is USDC in a wallet only you control
- A real Swiss IBAN in your own name, in CHF and EUR — incoming money settles as USDC in your wallet
- 0% card top-up fee on both tiers
- Mastercard accepted in 175+ countries, and the card itself works in the US
Against it
- The account, IBAN and conversion services are not available to US persons or Russian citizens, regardless of where you live
- Card FX markup is a range, 0.5%–1.5% depending on country — you do not know your rate until you see it
- Invite-only: every member holds just three codes
- Virtual card costs $5 one-off without a valid invite code
Also true, in its favour
- High limits out of the box: $25,000 per transaction, $62,500 daily, $125,000 monthly
- Real ATM access — $3,125 per withdrawal, $12,500 daily, $25,000 monthly
- Premium tier pays 0.5% USDC cashback on up to $5,000 of card spend per month
- Optional 5% yield via Aave V3, off by default and non-custodial
- If Mine shuts down your funds keep working — they cannot freeze what they do not hold
- First 500 CHF or EUR convert to USDC free, as a lifetime allowance

Card top-up is 0% on both tiers. The virtual card is free with a valid invite code, otherwise $5 one-off; Premium is $124 one-off and adds a physical card plus 0.5% USDC cashback on up to $5,000 of spend per month. Card FX markup is 0.5%–1.5% depending on country — the figure shown here is the worst case. Limits are identical on both tiers: $25,000 per transaction, $62,500 daily and $125,000 monthly at point of sale, plus $3,125 per ATM withdrawal, $12,500 daily and $25,000 monthly. Premium members can request higher or unlimited limits. Your first 500 CHF or EUR convert to USDC free as a lifetime allowance; pricing above that is shown in the app but not published.
KYC: what Mine Card asks for
Full verification: a document, a photograph of your face and proof of your address. The same file a bank opens on you, held by a company that is not a bank.
Limits on spending
Not published by the issuer: daily spend, maximum balance, cash, per day.
Confirmed on mine.financial on September 7, 2026. A figure told to one person in a chat window is not a published limit, so it does not appear here.
Where it works
Closed to residents of 2 countries, according to the issuer's own terms.
- Russia
- United States
The other flaws
- Premium costs $124 one-off, and Metal and Private tiers are still only 'announced soon'
- Only USDC is supported — no BTC, ETH or other stablecoins as a balance
- The blockchain the USDC balance settles on is not published
- Lose the seed and your backups and Mine cannot recover the funds for you — that is what non-custodial means
- Conversion pricing above the free 500 allowance is not published as a number
- No launch year or track record published
