Spending abroad
0% on USD and EUR; 0.5% to 1.5% on other currencies (modeled at 1.5%)
Good
- 1% back on all eligible spend with no stake, paid to your USD or EUR balance in USDC or EURC
- Staking tiers raise the rate to 3% to 8% on all eligible spend, with no spend band
- No subscription or annual fee on any tier; free virtual card
Watch out
- A monthly claim capacity limits what you can take out: $15 on Starter (reached at $1,500 of spend) up to $350 on Elite. Unclaimed rewards roll over but expire 12 months after they become claimable
- Paid tiers need 300 to 30,000 COCA staked and locked; unstaking means canceling the tier and a 30-day cooldown
- Staked COCA earns no yield
