Fold will acquire them at the end of the year anyway

That would be a disaster since Fold is KYC and BTCco is no KYC. Still haven’t had an issue with BTCco yet.

It would be yes

Same here. The only issue I had was that my Google Gift Card doesn't work and I can't use it on any account.

It's a well known issue apparently that Google NEVER acknowledged since ages ago...

Which company

The visa virtual cards rarely work for me. I end up just spending them on some LLM credits, which is not what I want them for.

Several fuel station cards.

Target was one of the only ones I could get to work as of late.

whatchu mean failures?

cards are getting declined?

u using real or virtual?

i haven’t had a problem.

Virtual, never wanted to wait weeks for a physical card.

Several gift card failures, especially with the visa ones. I get why those fail so often because they don't come virtually with a secure chip that most sites require to pay.

More specifically; the merchants say the gift cards are not valid cards. Even though they have a balance when I check on the fuel station website

Oh yeah I agree with this one. It's not 100% reliable for EVERY merchant, but restaurants is what I use it for or anywhere I know outside of gas stations. Don't even know if this would work at the pump but I'd assume it should!

You using Apple Pay I presume!? 😎

It didn't

No just right on my GOS from a screenshot; its worked with other cards but not this fuel card.

Have you reached out to them?

I'll send them an email. It was a gas station card and tried at many locations, all declining saying its an invalid card. Even though I check the balance and it shows a valid, unspend balance.

I always book hotels through them and have never had a failure. Love their service.

Awesome to hear

Ok I just bought a card this morning, and it gave me an error when I tried to add it to Apple Pay. I'm assuming that's what you meant above, "adding it to your Apple Pay" fails right? If yes, are you on your cellular or WiFi when you're trying? Mine worked only after I got back on WiFi (at home specifically somehow), UNLESS TBC fixed something by the time I got back home from church...

That's interesting
