Bitcoin -> prepaid VISA/Mastercard service (2014 edition)?

0

I have read the answers in this question here... But it is incredibly outdated. OKPay no longer accepts Bitcoin to creditcard. bitcashretail.com is down. xmlgold.eu results into an error. Centregold results into a page not found. ecardone.com is seized by the "Global Illicit Financial Team" Etc, etc, etc...

So I think it is time for a new edition of the bitcoin to virtual creditcard question.

I think the current tone of the discussion is "MasterCard tries to destroy bitcoin" so there is little hope to get such thing: http://www.teribuhl.com/2013/10/22/mastercard-hates-bitcoins/

There is not a single available solution to go to a general VISA/MC/AMEX card in the US today. Money Transmitter laws (and a host of other regulations) make this a very difficult proposition at the moment.

Some other countries don't have the same issues today, like Canada http://paymentweek.com/2013-11-4-canada-introduces-bitcoin-debit-card-services-238461/ but these solutions are also still in development.

Well I'm looking at this combinations :

btc-e -> egopay.com -> payeer.com -> direct card deposit (visa OR mastercard international)

okpay does not let you deal with money from crypto coins exchanges but you can still cashout money from egopay / payeer / etc.

So another option is :

btc-e -> egopay.com -> okpay -> okpay card

the transfers will cost a lot of money ... I'm still looking for a better option ..

I think you are trying to describe an answer, however it is hard to follow what you are suggesting. Perhaps you could fill it in with a bit more text?Murch 2014-01-06T12:50:51.263

You may want to try https://www.BuyBitcoins.com

They are a little more expensive than other bitcoin exchanges, but allow you buy bitcoins with prepaid credit cards. (Visa only)
