Wallet cards: your questions answered
What is a wallet card? It is a card that pays out of a self-custody wallet. The coins stay under your keys until you spend, when the provider swaps them for local money at the checkout, and no exchange keeps them in the meantime.
What do the entries tell you? The cost of the card, which coins and networks can load it, which people qualify, plus the way its issuer is organised, so that those questions get a direct reply.
Does self-custody mean no risk? No. A lost seed phrase cannot be restored, and the issuer can still stop the card. Each entry explains where that line runs.
