The BOLTIV Card is designed for online payments, mainly with US merchants. Some categories, including money transfer, cryptocurrency, betting and gambling, dating and adult services, are not supported and may be declined. Payments declined for insufficient funds may attract a fee, and a card is closed after repeated insufficient-funds declines, so please keep your card funded. Payments in a currency other than USD may attract additional charges. Card availability may depend on verification and on the service being enabled by BOLTIV.
