Why choose this card

USDC-secured credit with lower card-program ATM charges.

A good fit if

For regular cash withdrawals: Signature lists $0 ATM withdrawal fees, with a $250 daily withdrawal limit.

The tradeoff

USDC backs credit in escrow; $20 annual renewal starts in year two, and issuer-funded free lounge visits are unavailable.

An alternative to compareAvici Platinum ↗

Choose Platinum for occasional online purchases if avoiding Signature’s recurring annual fee matters more.

Refunds & support

A fixed processing time and return currency were not established for this program. Check the transaction and contact official support using the steps below.

Cancellations, refunds and support
Request a cancellation or return from the merchant and obtain a confirmation or refund reference. Record whether the card transaction is pending or settled.
Cancellation and subscriptions
Cancel subscriptions in the merchant account and check the next billing date. Freezing or closing a card does not cancel the merchant subscription.
Declined or unfamiliar transactions
Check the decline reason, balance, limits and activation status. For an unfamiliar payment, use the available card-lock control and notify official support promptly.
What to prepare for support
Prepare the merchant, date, amount, currency, transaction ID, status and refund reference. Ask support for the destination, expected posting date and dispute deadline. Do not send a full card number or wallet secret.

Custody of funded balances
User-owned Loan Escrow smart contract; withdrawals for attested card charges are authorized

USDC sits in a user-owned contract, with withdrawals authorized for attested card charges. Spent USDC is liquidated later for settlement, so this differs from an ordinary prepaid balance.
