Loyalty Rewards Program

Under the current Bybit Card Rewards Program, only eligible transactions funded with crypto earn tier cashback and Rewards Points from October 5, 2026 at 10:00 UTC. Spending through Bybit Card and Bybit Pay is combined when calculating monthly transaction volume and total points. Points remain pending for four calendar days before they become available. You can use available points in the Rewards Market or enable Auto Cashback to receive eligible cashback automatically in USDT.

Point multipliers, cashback rates and monthly caps depend on either the user's VIP level or monthly transaction volume. VIP users receive the tier linked to their VIP status without meeting its monthly spending threshold. Non-VIP users start at Tier 1 and can unlock higher tiers by meeting the spending thresholds below. VIP users can also unlock higher tiers through spending. The table below summarizes the current Bybit Card points and cashback tiers.

More ways to earn

Bybit Card also creates additional ways to earn rewards on the platform. One of these is Auto Earn, a service that automatically allocates idle funds in your Funding Account to Bybit’s Flexible-Term savings plans. This allows you to earn a daily yield from funds that would otherwise remain unutilized. When enabled for Bybit Card, Auto Earn takes a snapshot of your account funds at 10AM UTC every day. Any eligible funds are allocated to Flexible-Term plans, subject to minimum and maximum limits applicable to Auto Earn. If your Funding Account has less than the minimum required for a savings plan, the allocation will fail for that day.

Bybit Card users may also be eligible for regional referral campaigns. Eligibility, spending requirements and rewards vary by campaign, so check the current Bybit Card page for the terms available in your region.

How to use Bybit Card

You can use the Bybit Card with online retailers and merchants all across the globe. With a Virtual Bybit Card, you can make online payments once you’ve applied successfully, while a physical Bybit Card allows you to make online payments, as well as contactless payments in retail stores using point-of-sale (POS) terminals that support contactless payments. You can add Bybit Card to Google Pay (available for EEA and CH, APAC, Argentina, Brazil and Australia), Apple Pay (EEA, Argentina and Brazil) and Samsung Pay (EEA & CH and AIFC).

Activating your Bybit Card

Your virtual Bybit Card is activated automatically and is available for immediate use once your application is successful. In addition, you don’t need to activate foreign transactions separately. Bybit Card tiers follow your Bybit account's VIP level only in regional programs where VIP-linked tiers apply, including Asia Pacific and Australia. Tier availability and requirements can vary by region.

You can also apply for the physical version of the card and have it delivered to you within 30 days. The physical Bybit Card can be activated upon receiving it.

Managing funds

Managing funds on your Bybit Card is straightforward. It is, however, important to understand how your funds are deducted during payments, especially during times when you have insufficient fiat in your account.

Adding funds

The Bybit Card doesn’t have a separate wallet. As such, it uses the balance in your Bybit Funding Account. To add funds to your Funding Account, you can use the Buy Crypto option or deposit crypto from other platforms/wallets.

Fund deductions during payments

When making a transaction using the Bybit Card, the fiat currency is automatically denominated based on the Proof of Address (POA) you’ve indicated during your Know Your Customer (KYC) process.

Once you pay using your crypto debit card and the transaction is authorized, the amount you’ve spent will be frozen in your Funding Account, and then it will be deducted once the merchant completes the transaction.

Should the merchant cancel (i.e., reverse) prior authorization or refund the transaction, the frozen amount will be returned to your Funding Account’s Available Balance.

If there isn’t enough fiat in your Funding Account, your selected crypto may be converted to fiat to complete the payment. Crypto conversion fees vary by regional card program and are shown in the transaction fee table below.

Foreign-currency purchases use the applicable Mastercard or Visa exchange rate, together with any regional foreign exchange or international fee. ATM withdrawal fees and other charges also vary by card program. For full details and up-to-date fees, refer to Fees and Limits (Bybit Card).

Management Fees

Notes:— **No fee will be incurred for the issuance of the Virtual Bybit Card until further notice.— VIPs holding an Australia, Kazakhstan (AIFC), Georgia or Asia Pacific Physical Card will not have any fees for Card Issuance or Replacement.

Transaction Fees

Insufficient funds

When there are insufficient crypto and fiat funds in your Funding Account, the transaction will be declined. You can top off your Funding Account either through the Buy Crypto feature, or the direct deposit of crypto from external platforms or wallets via the Bybit dashboard.

Step 1: Open the Bybit App and tap on Card on the home screen.

Step 2: On the Bybit Card screen, tap the visibility icon directly on the card image to reveal your card details. You may be asked to enter a two-factor authentication (2FA) password from your authenticator app before the card details are displayed on the screen.

Step 3: Make a note of the card details on your screen so that you can use them on any website that supports Mastercard.

Please note that you might be asked for additional verification steps when paying with Bybit Card, depending upon the merchant used. For instance, you might be required to enter a second password sent to your registered email address.

Using the Bybit Physical Card

You can use the Bybit Physical Card for both online and offline transactions. To make payment for online purchases, you can obtain your physical card details (i.e. card number, CVV and expiration date) either from the Card Dashboard in your Bybit Account, or the physical card itself. The Bybit Physical Card can be used for any in-store payments that support contactless chip and PIN purchases.

Disputing transactions

In case of a dispute regarding a transaction you’ve made, we highly recommend that you reach out directly to the merchant involved if you wish to request a refund.If you don’t recognize any particular transaction, or you otherwise suspect that your card credentials may have been compromised, you can choose either to freeze your crypto debit card immediately or replace it, and then contact our Customer Support within 45 days of the transaction for further assistance.
