How to use your $GTH on real-world goods and services
Even as cryptocurrency and its community of users have experienced significant growth in popularity and use, liquidity remains a substantial challenge for the whole industry, hindering its mass adoption and its integration into ordinary life.
The PolisPay concept was proposed in 2017 to bring real-world use cases to cryptocurrencies. This would be done through the implementation of a series of features that would enable users to spend their digital assets on real-world goods and services.
Features that $GTH users can get benefit from are listed below:
- The PolisPay app is a multi-currency non-custodial wallet with features intended to bridge the non-crypto world to the Crypto future.
- One of those features is the Epay Mastercard® card, which is a card that you can top-up from within the app itself, using your $GTH.
- PolisPay wallet also has the feature of “Gift Cards”, which enables you to use your cryptocurrencies in the real world goods and services with a support over 40+ countries for this feature and a low fee.
- Additionally, with the “Shift” feature, you can instantly convert your Gather to other cryptocurrencies from within your light wallet.
- PolisPay Wallet has Trezor support. Desktop users can save their Crypto assets in the safest way possible via Trezor hardware wallets.
The implementation of these features further integrates the use of digital currencies into people’s daily expenses, narrowing the barrier between their digital assets and real-world items.
Let’s take a closer look of these features.
Epay Mastercard® card
You can use your $GTH to buy real-world goods and services, with a card that is accepted almost anywhere in the world. It is a prepaid Mastercard® card, that can be recharged via the new feature of the PolisPay app: The gift cards.
The epay card is a prepaid card that is managed on a prepaid basis. You can use your card to pay almost everywhere where MasterCard® is accepted. Once the card is activated and topped up, you can use it worldwide: For online shopping, to pay in shops, or to withdraw cash from an ATM.
The epay card Prepaid Mastercard® is embossed and does not feature a name on the card. This enables you to pay anonymously online and offline up to €100. Should you wish to spend more, you can identify yourself within minutes using the Bitcou video identification procedure and thus immediately increase your monthly limit to €4,000 (annually: €36,000).
The card can be ordered through Bitcou GmbH. The recharge is then possible via gift card through the PolisPay App in €100, €50, and €25. For the shipping of a single card and activation, Bitcou charges €20. PolisPay is the first app in the world where you can load the card with crypto.
The epay cards are available for the following countries:
Germany, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and United Kingdom.

With PolisPay Wallet you own your keys, and with PolisPay Shift you are able to exchange them anytime to another cryptocurrency of your choosing, without you ever needing to go to an exchange.
