Virtual cards cost $10, physical ones $100, and the whole process can be completed on a smartphone. Social media users report that the cards work right away without waiting for a plastic version.<\/p>\n<p>RedotPay supports Bitcoin, Ethereum, and major stablecoins like USDT and USDC. Users can load assets from multiple chains, including Solana, BSC, and Polygon. One standout feature is real-time transaction settlement: purchases instantly deduct funds from the wallet, and refunds are processed within minutes if a transaction is canceled.<\/p>\n<style>\n    .dark-mode .read-more {background-color: #343a40 !important;}\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"read-more pb-3 pt-3 pt-md-2 px-3 my-4 border bg-light\">\n    <h5 class=\"text-uppercase border-bottom mb-3 pb-1 d-none d-md-block\">READ MORE:<\/h5>\n    <a class=\"article row\" href=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/best-meme-coins-to-buy-right-now-top-4-picks-for-may-2025\/\" title=\"Best Meme Coins to Buy Now: Shiba Inu, Fartcoin, PENGU\">\n        <div class=\"contentRight col-4\">\n            <span class=\"imgContainer mt-0\">\n                <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"image img-defer\" src=\"https:\/\/cryptodnes.bg\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/05\/traxer-5kApSEYgMqw-unsplash-1-240x170.jpg\">\n            <\/span>\n        <\/div>\n        <div class=\"contentLeft col-8\">\n            <h4 class=\"title mb-0\">Best Meme Coins to Buy Now: Shiba Inu, Fartcoin, PENGU<\/h4>           \n            \n        <\/div>        \n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>Another advantage?
