Card Fee Schedule — Prive Technologies Limited

Effective Date: 12 April 2026
Last Updated: 12 April 2026

This Card Fee Schedule is part of the Prive Card Agreement and sets out the fees applicable to your use of the Prive Card.

1. Card Issuance

1.1 Physical Cards

  • Premium Metal Card: $99.00 total (Card fee $39.00 + Shipping $60.00)

1.2 Virtual Cards

  • Virtual Card: $10.00 (currently 50% off — $5.00 with active discount)

2. Card Top-Up / Funding

  • Top-up fee: 0.50% of the funded amount

  • Minimum top-up amount: $0.50

  • Maximum top-up amount: $999,999.00

  • Network fee per top-up (blockchain gas): USDT — $0.05; USDC — $0.05

The network fee is charged in addition to the percentage-based top-up fee and covers the cost of processing the transaction on the underlying blockchain network.

3. Card Withdrawal

  • Withdrawal fee: 0.00% (no fee)

  • Minimum withdrawal amount: $0.01

  • Maximum withdrawal amount: $999,999.00

  • Network fee per withdrawal (blockchain gas): USDT — $0.05; USDC — $0.05

4. Transaction Fees

  • Domestic Transactions: No additional fee

  • Foreign Currency (FX) Markup: 2.00% of the transaction amount

  • ATM Withdrawal Markup: 1.00% of the withdrawal amount

5. Decline Handling Fees

  • Fee per declined authorization: $0.50

  • Applies when your decline rate exceeds 5% of total authorization attempts

  • Minimum of 10 authorization attempts required before the decline rate is calculated

Each authorization attempt, whether approved or declined, incurs processing costs charged to Prive by the card network. This fee helps offset those costs when decline rates are unusually high.

5.1 Worked Example

A cardholder makes 100 authorization attempts in a billing period, of which 12 are declined. The decline rate is 12%, which exceeds the 5% threshold. Only the declined authorizations are subject to the fee: 12 × $0.50 = $6.00. If the cardholder had only 4 declines out of 100 attempts (a 4% decline rate), no decline handling fee would apply because the rate is at or below the 5% threshold. Similarly, if a cardholder has fewer than 10 total authorization attempts in the period, the decline rate is not calculated and no decline handling fee is charged regardless of the number of declines.

6. Card Replacement

  • Premium Metal Card (lost, stolen, or damaged): $99.00

7. Other Fees

  • Card Closure: Free

  • Statement Request: Free (available in-app)
