I’ve had it since 2022, no problems at all. I’ve earned $1600 worth of bitcoin rewards that is now worth $4600.

Only annoyance was for the first month I couldn’t use it at gas pumps. You have to set up your cash forwarding pin, or whatever, to use it at the pump which wasn’t clear to me. So I only got 1% on gas until doing that.
Otherwise I like it. It’s better rewards than my Prime card since I only do a little shopping on Amazon/Wholefoods.
I like the idea of segmenting a little BTC/crypto somewhere that I just don’t think about and won’t touch. Considering the idea with most points systems is you don’t think about it, but everyone once in a while can cash in on them, it seems especially useful if those points are in something that goes up over time. Also, the $250 bonus is nice. I hit a point where all my monthly expenses can go on a card and remain under 15% credit utilization, so that was literally free money at no inconvenience to me. On top of that, it can sort of alleviate FOMO if you’re wondering about some alt coin. Instead of pulling from your usual DCAs, you can just freely switch what your rewards are going into.
Also, I grabbed the orange card, but kind of wish I grabbed the black or silver one because I don’t like flashing any mention of BTC or crypto publicly.

Their customer service is known to be bad, you will feel the pain if you need it.
Their fee to transfer your coins to a wallet is higher than other exchanges, that ruins the return.
