Good day......I am active in the finance world and found some of the Debit Card offers from some of the Crypto Banks very attractive. Especially Crypto.com offers huge benefits. But, unfortunately the Dominican Republic is excluded from many offerings.
Would anyone now a Crypto firm that would offer Debit Cards also in the Dominican Republic?

Thank you.

Perhaps someone working with the new Bitcoin Office (see DR1 thread) in Cabarete can point you in the right direction. I've not yet heard of any firms/banks in the DR offering this service.

Not to sure what you mean by " offer in the DR ".
All of the crypto on-ramps require KYC. And some may also want your tax number. I just use my european passport.

as for crypto.com, i signed up using foreign passport, DR phone number, all while in the DR.
I use their card for most things here in the DR, and it works just fine.

Back in those days there was no virtual cards available, nowadays there is, so one can start using that.

Use a freight forwarding service like EPS with a Miami address, EZ PZ.
It gets mailed to a Miami address and sent to your local EPS office in RD.

And, if possible, register a phone number from your home country.
I had some 'splaining to do when that number was needed and i was back in europe ( so no access to DR number ).
