Head to head

OKX Card vs Bleap

The two cards that charge nothing on euro or other European currencies. OKX pays twice the rate, 2% against Bleap’s 1%, but caps it at €50 a month and holds your balance on an exchange. Bleap pays less and caps its 1% too, at €3,000 of spending a month, but keeps your funds in your own wallet.

Where the difference comes from

Below €2,500 of monthly spending, OKX simply pays double: 2% in USDG against Bleap’s 1% base rate in USDC, which is what every row of the table above shows. Above that, OKX’s €50 monthly cap freezes its cashback, but Bleap’s 1% is capped too, at €3,000 of spending a month (€30 back), so OKX stays ahead at every level of spending. Bleap’s 3% and 20% category bonuses, which the calculator leaves out, can tilt it further for anyone whose spending lands in those categories.

Fees are almost a tie. Neither card charges an FX markup, so Romania and the eurozone produce the same figures; OKX adds a conversion charge of at most 0.10% because its balance is in dollars. The real difference is custody. Bleap is a smart-contract wallet you control, licensed by the Bank of Latvia under MiCA. OKX is a custodial account run by a Maltese MiCA-licensed operator, and its own terms say balances carry no deposit protection. OKX also pays only on purchases funded with USDG, so funding the card with USDC earns nothing.
