Cryptocurrency credit card company BitcoinBlack has recently launched its no limit Visa crypto credit card. Access to the card is limited to 10,000 high-net-worth individuals, and applicants must share their net worth, credit score, and annual income in US dollars, among other information in order to be considered.

“Secured by the holder’s crypto, the card is billed as a gateway to a world of luxury goods and services and one-of-a-kind members-only experiences,” states the press release issued by BitcoinBlack on July 4.

More specifically, the holders of the BitcoinBlack Visa crypto credit card get exclusive access to a mansion on the Turks and Caicos Islands, special charter deals provided by Momentum Jets, exclusive private events, as well as 1,300+ airport lounges around the world.

The card rewards every purchase with a cashback of up to 10% in the form of the Spend token ($SPDN). The token can be converted to other cryptocurrencies or redeemed at the Haute Living Luxury Marketplace at a guaranteed 1:1 value to the USD.

“We’re very excited because in addition to being able to spend rewards on incredible luxury items, the marketplace will also allow members to purchase experiences that our team at Haute Living Magazine have created exclusively for them. These are one-of-a-kind events not found anywhere else in the world.” said Kamal Hotchandini, Chief Luxury Officer of BitcoinBlack.

BitcoinBlack was founded in 2021 by Prakash Chand, a serial entrepreneur based out of Toronto. Prakash is known largely for his medical information website Ask The Doctor, which used a Cardano-based token, called AskToken ($ASK).

Despite what some cryptocurrency news outlets have reported, BitcoinBlack is not owned by Visa Inc. The financial and payment cards company merely lets BitcoinBlack use its payment network to facilitate transactions.

MENA-based restaurant and payments technology provider Foodics has fully acquired Solo Venture, a UK-based company specializing in self-ordering kiosks and white-label online ordering solutions. The deal was reached at this year’s LEAP 2025 event in Riyadh and is part of Foodics’ strategy to create a seamless, all-in-one SaaS ecosystem for restaurants and catering firms.

Beyond the Solo acquisition, Foodics is also backing three startups as part of its wider expansion plan:

Norma: A Greek AI-powered data analytics firm that enables business professionals to generate insights instantly, eliminating the need for technical expertise.
Add: A specialized accounting platform designed for small and medium-sized restaurants to simplify financial reporting and payroll management.
Arzaq Plus: A smart food and beverage supply chain platform that optimizes sourcing and logistics while introducing a “Buy Now, Pay Later” feature to the Foodics platform.
