Coinbase Card review

Coinbase Card is a Debit Visa linked to your Coinbase account. It lets you pay from your USD balance or from crypto on the exchange; at checkout, the asset is automatically converted to dollars at the market rate. There's no fee on the transaction itself, but you should account for the spread and US tax considerations.
