What The Bitcoin Company is

The Bitcoin Company runs a mobile app and web store where customers buy gift cards and prepaid Visa and Mastercard products with bitcoin and stablecoins, and earn rewards on purchases. The site advertises discounts across more than 10,000 brands and global spending through prepaid cards usable almost anywhere. An account in the app or web app is required. The pages read for this review do not describe identity-verification rules, purchase limits, fees on prepaid cards or the countries served, so those fields are left empty here and should be checked in the terms and conditions.
