I just want to spend my **Steem Back Dollars (SBD)** more easily and not have restrictions to use it with only online wallet transactions only.  I live in China where most of the shops only accept cash and money transfers from your phone.  

# I NEED CASH MONEY BABY!!

So I discovered about Cryptopay.me reading posts on Steemit and doing some research I found some other similar cards but this one had the best reviews, so I dove in.  I’m going to give you clear instructions with lots of screen shots because I love them that way too. I know @steevc has mentioned he has one so it must be for real.

<h1>Step by Step</h1>
Go to  https://www.cryptopay.me/join/23a4d70b and register and buy the card using this referral please, 
If you sign up without using a referral code there are no deals later and you can’t go back.  I signed up without a code and then I found one later before I bought the card but I was already registered, so no dice.  **Take note**.  It's normal price for US funds  varies BUT I promise you’ll get 25% off.  **That’s a deal**. 

Also download the APP **MyChoice Card** on Android and iPhone.

Wait for it to come in the mail.  During this time you could transfer funds to your new wallet that your CryptoPay Visa card will access.

**After it arrives.**
Step &#10122;
Login into your account on their website to activate your card.

Step &#10123;
Click the activate button

Boom it’s done. Ready to go to the ATM.  If you have difficulties or problems they have amazing customer support, prompt, friendly and efficient.  Ana over there helped me with technical glitch and resolved it. Thanks.

# But wait, you need to load the card with the money you transferred to your account.  

**I got all excited and ran out the door to the nearest ATM that takes Visa without loading the card first.**  I had funds in my account but I didn’t transfer it to the card yet.  I was like **WTH?**  stomp back home, wondering what did I miss.  Haha.  Well, Ana replied and *aye curumba*.  I wish I had taken just a few moments more to look at the interface on their website because it was right there. ><

# So here’s how to load the CryptoPay Pre-Paid Visa Credit Card.

Step &#10112;
Go to your account and click **Load Card**

Step &#10113;
This is actually a lot cooler than people may realize.  You can select the currency you want to use.  This amazing for travel and business.  I can cash out my BTC in several currencies with just a few clicks no matter where I am.  **So Cool**

Step &#10114;
Wait for the confirmation email. Check your account settings for security and notice options, it is nice having options.

Log into your mobile APP and confirm the money is there and get your **ATM PIN**
You can do as you walk to the ATM no problem but do watch your step.

**Now here it is my friends, getting cash for my SBD, all my BTC came from Steemit earnings. It’s now Cash Money**!

I went to ICBC Industrial Commercial Bank of China.  It’s closest to my home that accepts Visa credit cards.

The ATM accepted the card, I punched in my PIN and then it spit out my money, SBD to Cash, just like that.  I was a little worried the machine would reject or eat my card.  For some reason Chinese ATM’s love to keep my regular Visa card issued in Canada.

**So 200RMB**, that’s only about **$30US** but hey it’s gonna be enough for a great day, it’s spending power is close to on par if I’m frugal enough, which I am.  I am saving money to go home to Canada this summer to visit my family and friends for a month while the schools are on summer break.

Imagine your upvotes and my Curation supported this lady’s family on Dragon Boat Festival since I bought breakfast here with it.  Zong Zi, the traditional food this holiday and some sort of fried bread I’m trying for the first time.  It’s like a donought but not sweet. Meh

(shameless self marketing but its useful!)
# So Crypto pay is legit, It works in China no problems.  @ace108 you were interested if it worked here, it does! Sweet, get one for Singapore.  Be our test subject.!

**I didn’t even use ID to get my card.**  Because I am unverified there are some restriction on withdrawals and limits.  The only reason I have not verified is because my passport expires in 2 months and I need one that has 6 months or more.  Which will come soon and I will be confirmed.
