Our verdict
ECOS pairs cloud mining with a crypto card under CJSC ECOS-M, and it suits holders who want a fixed BTC contract rather than flexible saving. The trade-off is scope: the asset list is BTC only, and custody is custodial, where the earn category sits at 137.5 coins at the median.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Contract terms are yours to set, running 1 to 60 month contracts.
- The card is a debit with crypto, virtual card and travel as listed features.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre.
- Backed by CJSC ECOS-M, founded in 2017 and based in Armenia.
Cons
- The asset list is thin: BTC only, where the earn category sits at 137.5 coins at the median.
- Custody is custodial, so the provider holds the coins for the length of the contract.
- The card is built for 1 currency, so spending elsewhere means a conversion.
Who it suits
- Bitcoin holders who want a defined BTC contract and can leave funds committed for 1 to 60 month contracts.
- People who want a single debit card for spending alongside their mining contract.
- Users who want help by phone and in a community, not only in writing, since support runs on email, phone and help centre.
Who should look elsewhere
- Bit2Me, if you want more than one asset: it covers BTC, ETH and B2M.
- bunq Crypto Spain, if a broad staking list matters: it supports TAO, ADA and TIA.
- VaultLeap, if you would rather hold USDC than BTC.

Frequently asked questions
Which assets can I earn on with ECOS?+
ECOS cloud mining covers BTC only, which is a narrow base for a yield product. The wider earn category sits at 137.5 coins at the median, so a single-asset focus limits anyone who wants to hold more than one coin.
How long do the contracts run?+
ECOS sells cloud mining as fixed contracts, and the term runs 1 to 60 month contracts. Because the period is set per contract, your capital stays committed for that stretch instead of being free to move at any time.
Who holds the coins while the contract runs?+
Custody at ECOS is custodial, so the provider holds the coins rather than a wallet you control. That is the dominant setup here, with 53.2% of earn listings custodial, so read the withdrawal terms before you commit.
What kind of card does ECOS offer?+
The card is a debit with crypto, virtual card and travel as listed features. It is built for 1 currency, so spending outside that currency means a conversion. The median monthly card fee across the category is €0.
Which company runs ECOS?+
The account is run by CJSC ECOS-M, a company founded in 2017 and based in Armenia. That legal entity is the one named in the terms, so contracts, support requests and complaints all sit with that name.
How do I reach support?+
Support runs on email, phone and help centre. Across the site a help centre is the most common route at 79.6%, while phone support appears on 44.7% of listings, so written answers are the norm and phone is the add-on.
How does the return compare with other earn products?+
ECOS sets its return through the cloud mining contract rather than a headline rate. The spread on the site is 0% at the low end and 21% at the top, with 7% at the median, so a mid-range figure is a fair yardstick.
Who should pick a different provider?+
If you want more than BTC, Bit2Me covers BTC, ETH and B2M and bunq Crypto Spain supports TAO, ADA and TIA, while VaultLeap takes USDC. ECOS suits someone settled on a single asset with a fixed term.
