Online accounts or NOT - brick and mortar banks will be frozen as well (if internet fails).With the demographics of BITOG "fintech" should be defined/explained in the first sentence for everyone else but the 6 members who embrace this stuff. First I've ever seen the word which should make it obvious where I stand on whatever it is. IMO it's bad enough that if the internet goes down our (collective) funds are untouchable but to link that reality somehow with social media platforms is next level foolish for the reasons the OP lists. But what do I know...
Its clearly targeted to people that aleady are X Premium+ subscribers - so they would be paying it anyway.the $480 yearly X premium+ fee will eat into your earnings.
How is this even remotely similar to an airline affiliated credit card?Honestly curios as to why you think this? How is it any different than say an airline offering a visa card that gives miles - for example?
All banks are online now.
No bank keeps cash or gold in the local vault.
or to make more people sign up for it. Since he can write off the interest as a cost of business (marketing/incentivize)Its clearly targeted to people that aleady are X Premium+ subscribers - so they would be paying it anyway.
X is simply a business providing services like any other, including airlines. The Social Media portion is not even the big part anymore, Grok is. If you don't care for the business thats fine, but that is simply your preference not a valid business argument.How is this even remotely similar to an airline affiliated credit card?
There is no social media site involved in booking airline tickets and any airline you've booked with already has ample personal information on you.
So you hate Musk and hence don't want to do business there, which is fine. What if the same thing was offered by Warren Buffet, or Costco? Would you feel differently?or to make more people sign up for it. Since he can write off the interest as a cost of business (marketing/incentivize)
and pump his X (twitter)cash flow numbers
Are projecting your hate for musk onto others? - Makes about as much sense as your reply to what I said.So you hate Musk and hence don't want to do business there, which is fine. What if the same thing was offered by Warren Buffet, or Costco? Would you feel differently?
That is some random website someone vibe-coded and wants to sell. It is not affiliated with X money. It seems to link to some crypto thing. Hope nobody is putting their info in there!No denying Musk is a genius whether you like him or not

X has a lot of baggage that comes along with it and it is not merely a business.X is simply a business providing services like any other, including airlines. The Social Media portion is not even the big part anymore, Grok is. If you don't care for the business thats fine, but that is simply your preference not a valid business argument.
That is a scam site. Not the real thing.Well, this is certainly new. It took 60 seconds to have an account but I am sure much more to do ... email and password to get started. Didnt even give my name, but will have to add it to my profile I would think at some point.
Non techies will have an issue with this but those people are dying off. ITs about the young and cool, like me
Once you set your account with email and password from there you enter your information under profile

OK, WITH THAT SAID, THERE IS A COST TO GET A VIRTUAL CARD $89 OR A PHYSICAL CARD HAS 3 TIERS starting at $50 So for me that ends it for today.
Depends if and how much money I would want to move into it/ anything new for me takes serious consideration and will cal this a procrastination event for me now. I would go with a physical card, I like "hard copies" of all things. Plus simplify having all things equal just another card to add to Apple Pay.

There is nothing trustworthy about Trustpilot...Trustpilot? Well there we are.
Neither of which shows any similarity with any airline I've ever booked foreign or domestic.See post 23 and 28
You are right, it's not affiliated with "X" I was wrong.That is some random website someone vibe-coded and wants to sell. It is not affiliated with X money. It seems to link to some crypto thing. Hope nobody is putting their info in there!
