Vechain is reportedly planning to launch a new payment card that combines blockchain-based rewards with daily spending.
The card, known as the B3TR debit card, allows users to use B3TR tokens to pay for everyday items such as groceries and clothing.
Popular veterinary investor Sebastian Locke shared the initiative today, noting that the Vechain Foundation has confirmed the ongoing development of its B3TR debit card.

B3TR debit card features
According to Sebastian, the card eliminates friction and intermediaries outside the lamp, while allowing for a tap-and-pay experience. For context, B3TR is a reward token for the Vebetterdao ecosystem. The system uses it to encourage users and engage in sustainable behaviors such as learning, walking, recycling, community service, and meditation.
Essentially, debit cards bridge the gap between Web2 and Web3 by integrating the digital token economy with traditional spending. This way users can participate in certain activities and earn points. Points will be paid in B3TR tokens and can be used later for daily purchases via future debit cards.
In particular, Sebastian hopes that the cards will provide real financial utilities for B3TR, bring them to non-crypto users, and enhance the overall adoption of projects within the Vebetterdao ecosystem.
Furthermore, investors speculated that the B3TR debit card would promote adoption among three user groups.
In conclusion, Sebastien emphasized that the card will reinforce Vechain’s vision of giving real-world value to B3TR tokens while also rewarding positive actions.
In the meantime, the Vechain Foundation has not issued an official statement confirming future releases of the B3TR debit card.
Bibit lists B3TR
Meanwhile, Sebastian’s commentary listed the B3TR tokens for transactions a few days after Bybit, the world’s second largest crypto exchange by daily volume. Currently, B3TR is listed in Buybit based on two trading pairs: B3TR/USDT and B3TR/USDC (B3TR/USDT).
The B3TR is trading at $0.2143 per token, marking a 5.74% decline over the last 24 hours. The token is ranked as the 3,205th largest cryptocurrency on Coinmarketcap, with a valuation of $40.56 million. That volume has skyrocketed from 19.53% to $15.17 million in the past day.
