Short answers here; the full detail is in Help.
What can I fund my balance with?
You can pay a deposit in USDT (on Tron, Ethereum or BNB Smart Chain), USDC, BTC, ETH, LTC and XMR. Every deposit lands as USDT on your Unlockd balance.
The deposit screen shows any network or service fees, added on top, before you pay.
More in HelpDo I need both Telegram and an email address?
No. A verified email and password, or Telegram, is enough on its own. You can add the other method later from your security settings.
If you use Telegram only, Unlockd does not ask you for an email address.
More in HelpWhat does it cost?
A card costs $12 to issue, and $5 of that is on the new card as its starting balance.
Each card load costs 4% of the amount loaded.
You always see the exact price as a quote before you confirm.
All fees and limitsWhere can I use the card?
It is a virtual USD card. Use it at eligible online merchants, or add it to Apple Pay or Google Pay where supported.
Some countries, territories and merchant categories are restricted, and no card is accepted everywhere.
Eligibility and restrictionsIs it a debit card or a prepaid card?
It is a prepaid card. You load US dollars onto it from your USDT balance before you spend, and it can only spend what it holds.
It is not linked to a bank account and nothing is lent to you, so there is no credit check.
Prepaid and debit cards comparedCan I withdraw cash with the card?
No. The card is virtual, so there is no ATM withdrawal. Use it at eligible online merchants, or in Apple Pay or Google Pay where supported.
Your USDT balance can only be spent on Unlockd cards; it cannot be withdrawn.
More in HelpDoes it work with Apple Pay and Google Pay?
Yes, where your wallet, region and the card programme support it.
When you add the card, the card issuer may send a verification code. Unlockd shows it on your card screen and, once Telegram alerts are on, in your private chat with the Unlockd bot.
More in HelpHow do purchase codes reach me?
Some merchants ask for a one-time code from the card issuer. Open the card’s purchase checks in Unlockd to see it with its expiry. If you connected Telegram messages, the code is also sent to your private chat with the Unlockd bot.
Unlockd never sends purchase codes by email, and staff will never ask you for one.
More in HelpCan I see my card number?
Yes, on your own card screen when you ask: the number, expiry and security code are shown in the card provider’s secure view, or fetched for one minute after you confirm it’s you.
Unlockd does not store them, and support will never ask for them.
More in HelpCan I freeze or close a card?
You can freeze a card to stop new purchases and unfreeze it later.
Closing a card is not available in Unlockd yet.
More in HelpIs Unlockd a bank?
No. Your Unlockd balance is not a bank deposit, does not earn interest and is not covered by a deposit guarantee scheme.
Cards are issued by a licensed partner institution, whose cardholder terms apply to your use of the card.
