Crypto.com Icy White & Rose Gold Review

Add your review
Verdict: The card has some best perks available in 2021 plus high cashback of 5% which is paid in CRO. But at today's prices in order to purchase the CRO token to stake this card, it would cost over $80,000. Whilst on the face of it, the perks and cashback are attractive, the entire value proposition is hinged on the token price of CRO going up, or at the very least maintaining its current price. This means that this card is meant for those who are bullish on the price of CRO and happy to lock away CRO tokens for a minimum of 6 months. We highly recommend users diligently calculate how long it will take to break even based on their expected monthly spend.

7/10 (Expert Score)
Product is rated as #35 in category Crypto Cards

The card is free and comes in Icy White & Rose Gold depending on your preference. To get access to the 5% cashback and the perks, users are required to stake 500,000 CRO tokens (approx $80,000 at today's rates) for a minimum of 6 months. On top of the 5% cashback paid in CRO tokens, you'll receive full rebates on Spotify ($12.99pm/£€ equivalent), Netflix ($13.99pm/£€ equivalent), Prime ($12.99pm/£€ equivalent), Expedia ($50/£€ equivalent).

This translates to a maximum of (12.99 * 12) + (12.99 * 12) + (13.99 * 12) + (50 * 12) = $1079.64 /£€ equivalent per year in rebates.

Whilst these are tempting perks, you will need to calculate your monthly spend on the card to work out whether the cashback you will receive will be worth the risk. A $100k spend per year spend would translate to $5k cashback in CRO which means as a card user, you entirely dependent on the value of CRO increasing, or at the very least maintaining its current value during the 6 months that your funds are locked in staking. This seems risky given the volatile nature of cryptocurrency, but if you're bullish on CRO and investing for the long term, then this may be a more viable option.
