XPlace CardXPlace Card
VisaVirtual and plasticSince 2024Solana-based non-custodial credit card: deposit BTC/ETH/SOL/JitoSOL/USDC/USDT as collateral into Kamino Finance, borrow USDC against it via Credit Mode, and spend via a Visa card (virtual instantly, physical metal in 7–14 days) — all while retaining on-chain ownership of the underlying assets. Four membership tiers (Basic free to Platinum $999/yr) scale cashback (up to 10% on select categories), FX fees (1% down to 0%), and limits.
126 of the 174 priced cards cost less. Among the 101 that ask for exactly as much identity, the median is $1.00. This one takes 3 times that for the same loss of privacy.
Whether to take XPlace Card
In its favour
- Non-custodial — collateral is deposited directly into audited Kamino Finance smart contracts on Solana; XPlace cannot move or access it
- Virtual card active in minutes; physical metal card ships in 7–14 business days
- Up to 10% cashback on select categories (flights/AI) and up to 4% on general spend at the top (Platinum) tier
- Credit Mode — borrow USDC against BTC/ETH/SOL/JitoSOL collateral instead of selling
Against it
- Fee schedule is now published and tiered — but the free Basic tier carries a 1% FX fee and a 2% bridge/deposit fee (only Platinum reaches 0% FX)
- Collateral yield is variable and not guaranteed per the Terms of Service — not a flat headline APY
- Runs on Solana only — BTC and ETH are wrapped assets (cbBTC, wETH), not native chains
- Newer service (2024)
Also true, in its favour
- Card transaction fee is 0% at every membership tier; FX fee drops to 0% at Platinum
- Apple Pay & Google Pay supported
- Free "Basic" membership tier available — paid tiers (Silver $99/yr, Gold $249/yr, Platinum $999/yr) unlock higher limits and cashback
