Data Compliance, Privacy Labels & Account Erasure

Regulations & Rights
Explicit GDPR Compliance
There are two privacy notices: a Canadian version (controller Queensland Foreign Exchange, Inc., Canadian MSB registration M23153297, Toronto; updated 2024-06-20) and a Costa Rican version (controller Second February Limitada, San José). Both define personal data under the GDPR and list the rights to be informed, access, rectification, erasure, restriction and objection, portability, withdrawal of consent and complaint; the Canadian version also applies PIPEDA, with complaints to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada. GDPR users' data is processed only on EU servers and Canadian users' data is stored in Canada; some partners are abroad (with safeguards). KYC is handled by Sum&Substance and KYC data is passed to the card issuer. The website does not say which version applies to Asia-Pacific card users
Official Privacy Policy
Official Privacy Policy ↗ · Privacy Contact: privacy@2nd-february.com (DPO, Costa Rican version); privacy@queensland-fx.com (DPO, Canadian version)
Data Retention
Kept as long as each purpose requires; AML records 5 years after account closure; the user agreement keeps transaction records for 5 years after account deletion; the help centre says a closed account is kept for up to 5 years (and can be restored on request during that time), after which personal data may be deleted automatically
App Store Privacy Label
—
Google Play Data Safety
Shared: device or other IDs; 9 categories collected; deletion can be requested; encrypted in transit
Account Deletion Flow
The help centre (updated 2026-10-29) says to contact support to close the account, while the user agreement says you can close it yourself in your personal account, so the two disagree. A closed account is kept for up to 5 years and can be restored on request during that time. The privacy notice says personal data deletion can be requested by ticket in the help section or by email to the DPO; Google Play's data safety section says data deletion can be requested
Audit Memo: Checked: live. The Asia-Pacific card is a physical USD prepaid Mastercard open only to citizens of Australia, Japan, the Philippines, New Zealand, Thailand, Singapore, Malaysia, Cambodia, Vietnam and South Korea; holders of long-term or permanent residence documents can also apply, and every applicant must first complete address verification in a supported country. It can only be loaded from Volet.com fiat wallets: crypto (such as USDT) must be converted to USD in the wallet before loading, and money sent to the card from outside the platform is not credited and may get the card frozen. Card fee $5, load 1.5% + $1, monthly fee $1, currency exchange 3.5%, load limits $6,500 a day and $22,000 a month; the card is valid for 3 years and ships by standard post or DHL express; no Apple Pay / Google Pay. The issuer is not disclosed: the help centre only says "a licensed financial institution" and treats partnership details as internal, so the network, fees and limits have to be read on the order page and the card PDF. Volet also offers a European virtual card (EUR/USD, $1/€1) and a European physical card (EUR/USD, $5/€5). Operator: Volet.com was formerly Advcash (advcash.com now redirects to volet.com); the user agreement has a Canadian version (Queensland Foreign Exchange, Inc.) and a Costa Rican version (Second February Limitada), and accounts are not opened for US citizens or permanent residents. Risks: the issuer is opaque; Google Play declares collecting 9 data types (including messages, photos and videos, and files and documents) and sharing device or other IDs with third parties; the Android app's developer account belongs to the Portuguese company Softkontrast, Lda, not to the operating entities in the user agreement.

Verified on 2026-11-02. App store availability and privacy disclosures are independently verified from official developer stores and privacy policies; store availability may vary dynamically by region.

Who it suits

Citizens of the ten Asia-Pacific countries, such as Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand, who want to fund with USDT, convert to USD and spend or withdraw with a physical card. Load fees, the monthly fee and 3.5% currency exchange add up, so it is a poor fit for large or frequent foreign-currency spending. [1] [3]

Risk notice

The website does not disclose the issuer or the regulated entity, and the FAQ and fee table contradict each other on limits; confirm the terms in the app and consider a small test before loading large amounts. [1] [2] [3]

Frequently asked questions

Can Malaysians apply for the Volet card?

Yes, for the Asia-Pacific physical card. Malaysia is on the official list of eligible citizenships, holders of an eligible long-term or permanent residence document can also apply, and Volet.com account and address verification come first.

Can the Volet card be topped up with USDT?

Not directly. USDT is deposited to Volet.com and converted to a fiat balance ($1 each), then the card is loaded from the fiat wallet; the Asia-Pacific card adds a 1.5% + $1 load fee.

Can it be added to Apple Pay or Google Pay?

No. The official card pages say neither the Asia-Pacific nor the European cards support them at present.
