Last updated
With our new Cards feature in MDAO Telegram Wallet, you can issue virtual Visa and MasterCard debit cards and pay for goods and services abroad.
No KYC process is required to issue these cards. Cards are virtual, without issuance on a physical medium.
With virtual cards, you can make only payments for online services and goods. Cash withdrawals from ATMs and transfers to other bank cards are not supported.
Important:
⚠️ For security reasons, never disclose your card details, expiration date and CVV codes.
⚠️ Pay for services only via official links, and beware of phishing.
⚠️ Do not give access to your Telegram account to third parties, protect your Telegram account with two-factor authentication (for more information about protection in Telegram, please see our article here).
To issue a card, open MDAO Telegram Wallet and launch the bot. You can find out how to start the bot in the instructions here.
If you have already used the wallet, open MDAO Telegram Wallet and enter the /start command.
On the page of the Cards section you can navigate to the issue of cards, read information, answers to frequently asked questions and contact support.
Before you start using the features, be sure to familiarize yourself with all the information by tapping on Information.
To return to the menu, tap Back.
You can issue and then fund the card with USDT BEP-20/TRC-20, as well as RUB.
Please note that you must top up your MDAO Telegram Wallet balance if you use the USDT deposit method.
When you issue a card, the deposit is topped up from your MDAO Telegram Wallet balance in USDT and converted to USD. Therefore, before issuing the card, please top up your MDAO Telegram Wallet deposit with USDT and TRX/BNB, depending on which USDT network you are using.
You can see how to replenish your wallet in the instructions here.
Navigate to the Cards section from the MDAO Telegram Wallet main menu and tap My Cards or Pay for Services to begin issuing.
On the next page a menu will open, select Issue Card to continue or Pay for Services if you need the card for a specific service.
Select Debit Visa или Debit MasterCard.
Each card type has a different BIN (identification numbers), which differ by issuer and services available for card payment.
When issuing the card, the card deposit must be topped up with at least 25 USDT + 10 USDT card issue fee. Pay attention to the deposit fee, it is 4% of the credited amount.
When using RUB, pass KYC, select the deposit amount and make the transfer.
When depositing in USDT TRC-20, you need to have TRX in your wallet.
When depositing in USDT BEP-20, you need to have BNB in your wallet.
The deposit is topped up from the MDAO Telegram Wallet balance in USDT and converted to USD.
