Bitsika
Bitsika is a crypto card issued on Visa, rated 5.7/10 in our latest review. Below: what it costs and what it demands, the tiers the issuer publishes, and how the card cleared our live checkouts.
Bitsika is the strongest fit for app store / play and crypto funded, and asks for ID + proof at signup — we carry it at medium risk. Treat the fee rows as the deciding factor: a card that clears reliably but charges on every top-up costs more than its rating suggests.

Frequently asked
What does Bitsika cost to run?
The cost lines stack like this: issuing it costs $3; there is no monthly fee on the entry tier. Cash-out costs are what compound here, so weigh the recurring lines above the one-off fee.
Do I need to verify my identity for Bitsika?
Bitsika asks for ID + proof at signup. The check runs once when the account opens, not on each charge, and the issuer's own wording is: Yes
How can I fund Bitsika?
You can fund it with crypto, bank transfer. Pick the one you can top up cheaply and repeatedly, because the load fee is charged every time.
Which billing address does Bitsika need?
Setting it up: cards are issued against Nigeria / Francophone Africa. Copy the address the issuer generates rather than retyping it. A transposed digit is the most common reason a working range starts failing.
Does Bitsika work for subscriptions and AI tools?
We recorded successful charges for the App Store and Google Play. Where a card passes on one merchant and fails on another, the difference is usually the processor and the 3-D Secure setting rather than the card itself.
How VCCFinder tests
VCCFinder buys cards at retail and charges them on live checkouts, then publishes the clear rate and decline reasons next to each range. Where a card declined, the reason sits on its BIN page rather than in a footnote here.
