Getting your Kite card (what it is / eligibility)

The Kite Card is a prepaid Visa card that you load with USDC or USDT from your Kite wallet. Once you top up, your card balance is in USD and you can spend it anywhere Visa is accepted.

How it works

  • Top up any time from your USDC or USDT balance, with a 0% conversion fee.
  • Your card and wallet balances are separate. You can only spend your card balance on card transactions.
  • Your card balance is held in USD. Any change in the price of USDC or USDT won’t affect money that’s already on your card.
  • Spend anywhere Visa is accepted: online, and in stores with Apple Pay or Google Pay. ATM withdrawals are coming soon.

Who can get one

To get a Kite Card, you need to:

  • Be 18 or older
  • Live in a supported country: Australia, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, South Korea, Taiwan, Thailand or Vietnam
  • Have completed KYC in the Kite app

How to get your card

  1. Complete KYC if you haven’t already.
  2. Go to the Card section and tap Get Card.
  3. Review and accept the terms.
  4. Kite reviews your request and issues your virtual card.

Once your card is issued, it’s active in the app and you can top up and start spending.
