Frequently asked questions
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to enable my Amulets card for international use?
No. The card is ready to be used in any country covered by the international payment network it operates on. There is no extra setting to flip before traveling.
Which networks can I use to fund my Amulets balance?
Today Amulets accepts deposit in USDC and USDT on Solana, Ethereum, BNB and Polygon. Pick the one with the lowest fee at the moment you are funding.
What happens if I lose the card during the trip?
You block the card directly in the app, without calling any hotline. Your balance stays in the account, untouched, because the card is the access tool and the balance lives in your account regardless of the card.
Why is Amulets cheaper than a traditional card for international spend?
Traditional cards add foreign transaction fees, network spread and issuer markup at every international purchase. Amulets settles your stablecoin into local currency through the payment system without those layers, which is where the difference comes from.
How does cashback work?
Every approved purchase generates cashback paid in SOL into your Amulets account, up to 3% of the amount you just spent. Cashback compounds across the trip and stays in your account regardless of where you spent it.
Is USDT really 1:1 with the US dollar?
Yes. USDT is a stablecoin pegged 1:1 with the US dollar by Tether, the issuer. When you hold USDT in Amulets, your balance reads in real dollar value, and the conversion to local currency happens at the moment of purchase using the payment system rate, not a bank spread. For travelers from countries with currency volatility, this is dollar exposure that follows you across borders.
Is the calculator above accurate for my specific case?
The calculator uses typical 2026 fee structures for each option. Your real cost can vary based on your bank, your card, the country you are in and the merchant category. Use it as a directional comparison, not as a quote.
