Visa and a bank headquartered in Russia (Sberbank) have teamed up to offer their Kazakhstan branch a solid gold credit card. The card will be offered only to the bank's 100 most valuable customers and will cost $100,000 upfront with an annual fee of $2,000. Now I have to go massively into debt just to have a card! Though the card does contain 26 diamonds equal to 0.17 carats and a mother of pearl.
How do you swipe you ask? You can’t the card can only be used
for chip transactions. No magnetic strip, guess I won’t be ordering one for Christmas after
all!
