Exciting Card Features

Aside from allowing support for over eight blockchains, Floki’s announcement contained several other features that intending users should prepare to enjoy. They include 0% transaction fees policy and 0% exchange rate fees. Additionally, the card will come in virtual and physical form, which invariably allows customers to make choices.

For the card pricing, Floki noted that a physical card would attract a one-time fee of 32 EUR ($33.79). It added that the fee would cover the card’s shipping to the customer’s location. On the other hand, the virtual card would only cost intending users a one-time 10 EUR ($10.56) deposit. The meme coin noted that both cards would attract a 2% top-up fee.

Accessing the Debit Card by Region

With its latest initiative, Floki seems focused on announcing its European presence by making its physical debit card version accessible to 31 countries. Some top nations in Floki’s announcement include Italy, Netherlands, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Belgium, Germany, France, Poland, and Sweden.

While the physical debit card might seem restricted to specific countries, Floki noted that it made the virtual version accessible to customers in any global location. However, it indicated that the meme coin is working to extend its reach for the concrete card beyond the 31 countries.

Moreover, some nations will not access the card due to operational restrictions imposed by regulatory bodies. “The Floki Debit Card is not available in OFAC-sanctioned countries and regions restricted by the issuing banks or Mastercard,” Floki stated.

It is worth noting that the OFAC stands for the Office of Foreign Assets Control. It is an entity of the United States Treasury Department. Its duties entail enforcing economic sanctions against entities that have proven unyielding to regulatory guidelines.
