Crypto cards and their ID checks

A crypto card is a Visa or Mastercard card you fund with crypto and spend wherever the network is accepted.

Nearly all of them check your identity, because the companies that issue cards answer to regulators. Each listing quotes what the card's own pages say about ID, and says so when they are unclear. Check fees, limits and country support before you load money.
