Crypto-Funded Prepaid Card
Understand the difference between prefunded virtual cards, debit cards and credit products before choosing a crypto-funded payment card.
An independent issuing partner reviews applications. ID verification is required. Card availability, merchant acceptance and country eligibility must be confirmed.
Understanding crypto-funded prepaid card
With a prefunded card, money is loaded ahead of use. A true prepaid, debit or credit classification depends on the issuer's contractual structure; crypto funding alone does not determine the legal card type.
Important checks before you apply
Review the actual cardholder agreement for whether funds are prepaid or held by a regulated account provider, and check refund, chargeback and expiry terms.

Is every crypto card a debit card?
No. Products marketed as crypto cards may have different structures. Check the issuing programme rather than assuming it is a bank debit or credit card.
Do I need to provide ID for a virtual crypto card?
Yes. ThunderSub's application requests identity details and the independent issuing partner verifies eligible applicants before issuing a card. Do not apply using inaccurate or borrowed personal details.
Is payment acceptance or approval guaranteed?
No. Issuing-partner checks, residence, card-network rules and merchant acceptance all affect whether a card is available and whether a particular transaction works.
How ThunderSub participates
ThunderSub is a marketing and introduction platform. The independent card issuer or provider handles identity checks, availability, card issuance, transaction acceptance and applicable terms. A virtual card application is online, including for customers searching from London or Hatton Garden; this page does not promise in-person card issuance.
