  • The WhiteBIT Nova card allows EU users to spend crypto directly with no conversions.
  • The debit card offers up to 10% BTC/WBT cashback with customizable daily spending categories.
  • Backed by Visa, the debit card supports Apple Pay, with €10K daily and €25K monthly limits.

WhiteBIT, one of Europe’s largest cryptocurrency exchanges and a partner of FC Barcelona, FC Trabzonspor, ESL Faceit, and Visa, has introduced the WhiteBIT Nova, a debit card with cashback rewards in collaboration with Visa.

The debit card will allow European Union (EU) residents to seamlessly integrate cryptocurrencies into their everyday spending, offering a practical and rewarding way to utilize digital assets.

The WhiteBIT Nova card features

Issued by Wallester AS, a leading card issuing platform in Europe, the WhiteBIT Nova card is backed by Visa’s global network. This partnership not only provides extensive acceptance worldwide but also integrates with Apple Pay, allowing for secure and contactless payments.

The card’s daily spending limit is set at 10,000 EUR equivalent, with a monthly limit of 25,000 EUR, offering flexibility for users who wish to use their digital assets in more substantial transactions.

Unlike traditional bank cards, the WhiteBIT Nova card requires no initial deposit to activate, and there are no fees for opening or closing the card. The card can be used both as a digital version, available instantly through the WhiteBIT app and as a physical card, which is delivered within 10 business days for a fee of up to €10.

This flexibility allows users to choose between immediate convenience and traditional card use.

Another of the standout features of the WhiteBIT Nova card is its support for multiple cryptocurrencies, including USDC, BTC, ETH, XRP, SOL, NEAR, ADA, AVAX, WBT, and DOGE. This enables users to spend a wide range of digital assets directly, without the need for conversions.

Furthermore, the card offers up to 10% cashback as a standard feature, paid in Bitcoin (BTC) or WhiteBIT Coin (WBT).

Users can select cashback categories like groceries (1%), food/restaurants (3%), medicine (3%), taxi (3%), pet supplies (5%), and subscriptions (10%). They can adjust these categories daily, allowing them to maximize their rewards based on their spending habits.

The Apple Watch Series 11 Drops to $238 During the Early Amazon Resale Prime Day Sale

Apple Watch prices have dropped for Amazon Prime Day. Starting today, most colors and styles start at $279 for the 42mm size and $309 for the 46mm size. That’s the lowest price I’ve ever seen by $20 and currently $120 cheaper than buying directly from the Apple Store. The Series 11 is Apple’s newest model.

Apple Watch prices have dropped for Amazon Prime Day. Starting today, most colors and styles start at $279 for the 42mm size and $309 for the 46mm size. That’s the lowest price I’ve ever seen by $20 and currently $120 cheaper than buying directly from the Apple Store. The Series 11 is Apple’s newest model. The Series 12 is expected to be announced sometime in September, but it will probably retail for $399 or more and come with minor incremental upgrades.

The Apple Watch Series 11 is the best smartwatch for most iOS users. It’s stylish, boasts excellent build quality, and seamlessly integrates with your iPhone. It’s loaded with tons of practical health and fitness features, including activity tracking and heart rate monitoring. New to the Apple Watch 11th generation model specifically are (1) the Apple Intelligence powered “Workout Buddy” that motivates you during exercise, (2) hypertension notifications, and (3) a sleep score that measures the quality of your sleep. The biggest hardware updates include a brighter and more scratch resistant display and 33% longer battery life.

Can you use an Apple Watch with Android phones?

Although it’s technically possible to use an Apple Watch with an Android phone, we wouldn’t recommend it. Apple made it so that a lot of the functionality of the Apple Watch requires a smartphone with an iOS operating system. There are some workarounds to implement some of its features, but for the average person, the hassle is not worth it. If you’re absolutely intent on getting an Apple Watch, then getting an iPhone first would be the best option.
