Frequently asked questions
What does the ether.fi Cash Card cost each month?+
There is no monthly charge: the monthly fee is $0. Core members in some regions do pay for their first virtual card, which is the cost to plan for. Spend earns 3% cashback, and the card is a debit card, so there is no borrowing to service.
What does it cost to convert currency?+
Conversion runs 0% to 0.5%, which sits under the site median 1% for cards on the site. Balances can be held in 30 currencies, so you convert only when you spend in another currency. The card runs on visa, so it is accepted in the usual places.
Can I take out free cash at ATMs?+
Not without a charge: free ATM withdrawals are $0, and that puts the card at 41 of 115 brands compared on free withdrawals. Budget for cash sparingly, or pay by card wherever the visa network is accepted.
Is it a debit card, and which network runs it?+
It is a debit card that draws on the balance you hold, running on the visa network. Debit is the most common card type here at 74.3%, and visa accounts for 58.6% of the cards listed, so acceptance is routine.
Who holds the money on the card?+
The card is built around self custody, so the balance sits with you rather than with an intermediary. That fits readers who already handle on-chain assets, and it matches the crypto spend and travel entries in multi currency, crypto and virtual card. Key management and the card itself stay in your hands, which is the trade for the fee level.
Who is this card aimed at?+
Business users are the stated audience, business, and business cards make up 66.1% of those listed. Travel also appears among the multi currency, crypto and virtual card, so the same card works for trips. A reader without crypto holdings gets less from the multi-currency and crypto side.
How do I reach support?+
Support runs on email, chat and help centre: a help centre, live chat, email and a community. Phone is not among the listed channels, so expect written answers. Help centres are the most common route across the cards compared, 75.6%.
Do I need a physical card?+
A virtual card is one of the listed multi currency, crypto and virtual card. Core members in some regions pay a charge for the first virtual card, while the monthly fee stays $0. That first card charge is the number to weigh against cashback of 3% on everything you spend.
