In order to use the CoinZoom Visa card, go into your CoinZoom App and choose which currency you want purchases to access. Once you've chosen the wallet to use, then you can use your card at an ATM or accepting merchant. 

When you swipe your card, CoinZoom will confirm that there is enough available funds in your account to pay for the amount requested. If there's enough available funds, the transaction will be approved. As the transaction is approved CoinZoom will create a market order for the amount of currency to cover the purchase.

If there are not enough funds of the selected currency, the transaction will not succeed. In that case, go into the app and choose another currency that has a sufficient quantity to cover the purchase plus fees.  

For some purchases, like at a restaurant where a tip is often added to the bill after the transaction is approved, the tip amount may not show on the customer's account until the next day.

The CoinZoom Card is available in 5 options which may be viewed here: https://www.CoinZoom.com/cards

Physical cards are available to US based customers. We anticipate international cards in the futre.

When swiping your CoinZoom Visa Debit Card, some merchants request authorization for a specified dollar amount that may be over the actual amount of the purchase. If you were to purchase a five dollar cup of coffee, for example, the merchant will automatically request five dollars. If you have enough value in your selected crypto, CoinZoom authorizes that purchase and initiates a market order for the amount of crypto to satisfy the payment.

But some merchants aren't sure how much your final purchase will be, so they request a "pre-authorization" for a dollar amount. For example, a gas pump transaction may request a "pre-authorization" for $80.00 as a way of holding enough value to make the purchase. After pumping your gas the merchant sends a "completion transaction" message with the actual amount to charge

Example of merchants where this can happen include gas stations, hotels and rental car agencies.

CoinZoom releases any pre-authorized amount from your account once the merchant gives notification with the "completion transaction" amount and the actual amount to charge. Any additional amount of the pre-authorization over the final transaction amount is then released. Sometimes settling the charge can take until the next day. 

Once your CoinZoom Visa Card has been marked to Shipped and you have received it in the mail, you are now ready to activate the card, link it to your wallet, and set your PIN for cash/ATM access. 

Go to Portfolio -> Spend Wallet (on the mobile app, tap Spend). Press Activate My Card to begin the activation process. Make sure to have the physical card with you as you will need to enter the 3 digit CVV code located on the back of the card. Once you press the button the popup will open asking for the 3 digit security code found on the back of your CoinZoom Visa card

After you enter the code successfully you will see a blue success screen. Press OK and the app will prompt you to create your CoinZoom Visa Card PIN Code to access cash at ATMs. 

To use your card, you must choose which wallet the funds will come out of to make purchases. This can be any crypto that your own or USD. Once the wallet is selected, you can use your card at any ATM or merchant that accepts Visa cards.
