For about 9 months or so, I’ve been frustrated with the #fold card. It work at some merchants and not at others.
Despite the error message in this screenshot, the problem is NOT my PIN.
I’ve contacted support at the fold card. They point fingers at the merchant. And the merchant puts fault on the Visa card, of course.
Thinking critically for a moment,….. the merchants (Casey’s gas stations and Hyvee Grocery stores) would not be in business if they didn’t have working credit/debit machines.
The #Fold card works with online transactions, Walmart and other convenience stores. It works as credit and debit.
I have successfully transferred my rewards to a #bitcoin wallet several times. It’s just not reliable with all merchants.
