Bottom line

Avici Signature is the upper tier of Avici's secured Visa credit card, backed by crypto you hold in self-custody. It waives every ATM charge, carries Visa Signature travel benefits, and applies no transaction fees or currency markup. The catch: $30 for the first year and $20 annually after, plus $75 for the physical card, and Europe is not covered.

Signature earns its fee in one place: ATM withdrawals are free, where Platinum charges $1 plus 0.65% and $0.60 for declines. If you take cash out regularly the $20 a year pays for itself; if you never do, Platinum does the same job for nothing.

Avici Signature is the higher tier of Avici's secured Visa credit card, funded by crypto held in a self-custody smart wallet with passkeys. The virtual card costs $30 for the first year and $20 annually after; the physical card is $75 with $20 a year from the second year. Delivery is free and untracked in three to four weeks, or priority for $50 internationally and $15 in the US.

There is no cashback. Avici charges no transaction fees and no currency markup, though Visa may add 0.4% to 1% on non-USD spending. Signature's advantage over Platinum is at the cash machine: no withdrawal fee, no declined transaction fee and no balance enquiry fee, against $1 plus 0.65% and $0.60 charges on Platinum. Daily ATM limits are the same at $250 across three withdrawals.

Bottom line

Nomad is a Brazilian fintech offering US dollar and euro balances on a Visa debit card issued by Community Federal Savings Bank, with FDIC insurance up to $250,000 and two free ATM withdrawals a month. It bundles lounge access, travel insurance and an international SIM. The catch: it holds no crypto, serves Brazilians only, and converting reais carries charges of 3.5% on top of the conversion fee.

Nomad is a conventional Brazilian dollar account rather than a crypto card, and its real cost is the conversion stack: a conversion fee that varies by loyalty tier plus 3.5% in charges on the international account. The FDIC protection and lounge access are what you are paying for.

The Nomad Visa Debit Card is issued by Community Federal Savings Bank, Member FDIC, under a Visa U.S.A. licence, with Nomad Fintech Inc of Orlando acting as programme manager. Nomad is not a bank. Foreign exchange and transfers from Brazil are conducted in partnership with Ouribank S.A. Banco Múltiplo. Dollar balances are FDIC insured to $250,000 across Community Federal and its network banks. Nomad reports 3.5 million Brazilian users.

The debit card carries no cashback; a separate Nomad Explorer credit card for domestic Brazilian use earns three points per dollar. Nomad's cost structure combines the commercial dollar rate, a conversion fee that falls as you progress through the Nomad Pass loyalty tiers, and charges of 1.1% for the Investment Account or 3.5% for the International Account. Two ATM withdrawals a month are free.
