Card overview

Baanx's website currently focuses mainly on providing card and OpenFi infrastructure to business partners and explicitly directs consumers to Crypto Life for related products. Crypto Life is a brand operated by Baanx. Its primary card is deeply integrated with Ledger but does not require users to own a Ledger device. After completing KYC, users can obtain a free virtual card and may apply for a physical card depending on their region. The global version mainly uses Monavate's Mastercard payment system. The US version has a separate card account with Cross River Bank and offers both Custodial Card and Non-Custodial Card funding structures. Under the former, crypto assets are held in custody by Coinme; under the latter, assets remain in the user's connected self-custodial wallet until they are spent.

Malfunction of the Ledger CL card from Baanx.

The purchase of a Ledger device using a Ledger CL card is being declined. Two attempts, two failures. It takes an hour before receiving an email from Ledger stating that the order has been "canceled due to an issue with the payment method used" and suggesting to "place a new order using an alternative payment method". That’s the height of it. On the bank side (Baanx), there is no information regarding the reason for the rejection. In three and a half years, this is not the first time. I am looking for an alternative to this unreliable card. I am going to test Solflare.

Baanx runs a bug bounty program on…

Baanx runs a bug bounty program on Immunefi, which I participated in as a security researcher. I submitted a vulnerability that was confirmed and fixed by the team, but the agreed bounty was never paid. More than 8 months have passed with no resolution or payment. Communication has been minimal and unproductive despite repeated follow-ups. This experience shows a lack of accountability and respect for researchers’ work. I strongly advise caution when engaging with Baanx or participating in their bug bounty program.

Scam

First limited access my cl-card. Did not provide any explanation why. Spent 60 days "investigating" and did not ask for any documentation from my side to prove my income for example, or ask about the transaction they considered suspicious (while my transactions were netflix, uber, etc...). After blocked my account and kep all my crypto assets... Trying to get them back with FOS help.
