Sell the card, and once it's checked the payout sits in your balance in US dollars. When you withdraw, choose Bitcoin and paste your BTC address: we send the amount as BTC, converted when the payout is sent. No fee from us, $5 minimum.
Bitcoin is the most widely accepted coin: almost every exchange and wallet takes it, and it's easy to hold or swap later. If you don't need the money right away and want to keep it in crypto, BTC is a natural choice. If you want a stable value, a dollar stablecoin like USDT is the better pick.

Your Bitcoin address
We send on the Bitcoin network itself. A Bitcoin address starts with bc1, 1 or 3. Copy it from the receive screen of your wallet or the Bitcoin deposit page of your exchange, never type it by hand, and check the first and last characters after pasting.

How long it takes
The card check takes 24 to 72 hours on business days, and payouts go out in the same window. On the Bitcoin network a new block comes about every ten minutes; many exchanges credit a deposit only after a few confirmations, so allow up to an hour after we send.
Questions about Bitcoin payouts
Is the BTC amount fixed when I submit the card?
The dollar amount is locked when you submit. It's converted to BTC when the payout is sent, at that day's price.
Do you charge a fee for Bitcoin payouts?
No. Payouts are free: the amount you request is the amount we send. The smallest payout is $5.
Can I use a Lightning address?
No. We send on the Bitcoin network itself, to an address that starts with bc1, 1 or 3.
What if I entered a wrong address?
Crypto sent to an address can't be reversed, so copy it from your wallet and check it before you confirm. The form checks the format as you type, and a wallet added in the last 24 hours is checked by hand before its first payout.
How long until I'm paid?
The card check takes 24 to 72 hours on business days, and payouts go out in the same window. Your exchange may wait for a few network confirmations before it shows the deposit.
