How does the Spritz Card work?
Updated over a week ago

Your Spritz Card is a virtual debit card that can be used at any merchant that accepts Visa! Load your SpritzCard by off-ramping crypto into your SpritzCard account in the Spritz app. Once funds are on your card, it works just like any other Visa debit or pre-funded gift card.

  • To identify whether a non-US business uses 3DS verification, you can look for indicators during the online checkout. Some websites will explicitly mention that they use 3D Secure authentication. Additionally, you may receive a text message or notification on your mobile device for verification purposes when making a purchase at such businesses.
