About Fold

Fold makes it easy to earn, buy, sell, and live off of Bitcoin. Fold takes established consumer financial products and optimizes them for a Bitcoin future. Fold also offers an FDIC-insured checking account, a Bitcoin exchange and wallet, thousands of merchant offers, and more. In 2020 we partnered with Visa to launch the first ever bitcoin-rewards debit card, we recently announced a bitcoin-rewards credit card, and we continue to launch new products at regular intervals. In February, 2025, Fold became the first publicly listed bitcoin financial services company. We’re growing like crazy with a passionate and loyal community.
