It's been a while, since I used Visa debit card.
Whether the card still works for unidentified users from the EU?
Or has been canceled since this month, and replaced with the mastercard.

VISA cards still work for EU residents, both verified and unverified.

Do you mean they disabled your country and kept the money?

The cards with billing addresses outside the EEA have been suspended and the balance has been transferred to the user's wallet. Wallets are still available for everyone.

I used the MC yesterday with no issues, fwiw. I unloaded the Visa card recently and restored to BTC before this latest BTC moon-shot - pure luck. I'm leaving the MC loaded for now. Gulp.

The company has treated me well so far, but they are in a difficult situation so almost anything could happen next. Don't ever risk what you can't afford to lose.



Thank you for your trust. You can still unload your card and use it for purchases until 5th of December. We will return the cost of the card to your Cryptopay account till October 25th. If you still have funds left on your card after 60 days, don’t worry, we’ll also return them to your account. If your billing address is in the EU we'll gladly issue a VISA card as a replacement.

That means currently no cards will work outside EEA right? OR do we have an option to use these cards in Asia?

Good point... Mentioned news will make things tough for bitcoin debit card industry.Better to look for other options like making agreement with Visa or other payment providers. Developers should give us info immediately after this news.
