What 1,000 USDT buys
Open one virtual card, top up 1000 USDT once (1 USDT = 1 USD) and spend it over 10 purchases; spendable amounts at USD and non-USD merchants, on-chain gas excluded.
① Issuance fee: 5.00 USD
② Top-up fee: 1000 × 0% = 0.00 USD
③ Card balance: 1000 − 5.00 − 0.00 = 995.00 USD
④ Spendable at a USD merchant: 995.00 ÷ (1 + 0%) = 995.00 USD
⑤ Spendable at a non-USD merchant: 995.00 ÷ [(1 + 0%) × (1 + 0%)] = 995.00 USD
Total cost: USD merchant 0.50% / non-USD merchant 0.50%
② Top-up fee: 1000 × 0% = 0.00 USD
③ Card balance: 1000 − 5.00 − 0.00 = 995.00 USD
④ Spendable at a USD merchant: 995.00 ÷ (1 + 0%) = 995.00 USD
⑤ Spendable at a non-USD merchant: 995.00 ÷ [(1 + 0%) × (1 + 0%)] = 995.00 USD
Total cost: USD merchant 0.50% / non-USD merchant 0.50%
