help BOLT Card FAQ

What is the BOLT Card used for?

It is a physical contactless cryptocurrency card that also acts as a hardware wallet. Its secure element stores wallet credentials so the card can hold and spend digital assets without being plugged into a computer.

How does a BOLT Card payment work?

You tap the card over an NFC reader, and the card authorizes a crypto payment through its embedded secure chip. In the widely used Bitcoin version, the tap pays a Lightning invoice instead of using Visa or Mastercard ([The Bolt Card](https://theboltcard.com/)).

Does the BOLT Card need a USB connection?

No. Its contactless design lets the holder authorize spending directly from the card rather than connect a conventional hardware wallet to a PC.

Is the BOLT Card a normal bank card?

No, it is a crypto wallet card rather than a bank-issued debit card linked to a fiat account. The key hardware is the secure element that protects the digital-asset credentials used for contactless spending.
