Frequently asked questions
What does a Paysera card cost each month?+
The card comes with a monthly fee of €1. That is the recurring cost to weigh, and it sits above the free monthly fees at Monzo Flex, £0, and Wise, £0. On monthly fee, Paysera sits at 311 out of 379.
Who is the Paysera account built for?+
It is built for a business audience rather than private users, so freelancers, sole traders and small teams fit it better than household accounts. Business is the most common audience in this category, at 69.6%. The account is run from Lithuania.
Is Paysera regulated and is the money protected?+
Paysera is regulated in Lithuania, where the Bank of Lithuania is named as regulator. The bank registration is 53 and the electronic money licence is PSD_EMI LT_LT_BL_300060819. The card is issued by "Paysera LT", UAB.
How many currencies can I hold and pay in?+
The account covers 30 currencies, and a multi-currency account is the core of the offer. Paying in a different currency means converting first, so the rate applied to the conversion matters as much as the card fee itself.
What kind of card is it, and is there a virtual one?+
It is a debit card on the visa network, drawing on the account balance rather than a credit line. A virtual card is among the features, which suits online-only spending and short-lived card details. If one is declined, support runs on phone and help centre.
How do I get help with a blocked card or a payment?+
Support runs on phone and help centre, meaning a phone line and a help centre are the routes in place. Chat and email do not appear among them, so anyone who prefers written support should weigh that before opening an account. For a declined card, the phone route is the quicker of the two.
Is Paysera a crypto card?+
Paysera is a business account with a payment card, not a crypto exchange. It holds 30 currencies and lists multi-currency, virtual card and travel features. Readers shopping this category for a crypto card may find the Bitpanda card a closer match, with a monthly fee of €0.
