Cronyl Bitcoin card
What is Cronyl?

Cronyl is a metal card with a gold finish. Made to last a lifetime. Cronyl connects the card and the wallet: a tap opens a wallet you configure — crypto, NFTs, or real world assets. It is not a bank account, and it does not hold a balance. Without fees, and Cronyl does not ask for private keys.

Do I need the Cronyl App to send or receive?

No. A tap can open the receive page in a browser. The Cronyl App is optional. It can redirect to the selected wallet, and it can show wallet monitoring, market information, and push notifications, depending on the available features.

How does the tap work?

A tap only works across a few centimeters. Your location and wallet address appear only then, and only briefly, before a timer closes the view. The card does not transmit a seed phrase or a private key.

Is Cronyl an RFID card?

Yes. Cronyl is a metal RFID crypto card: a short-range tap opens the wallet address you configured. Phones read the card with the RFID/NFC interface built into modern iPhone and Android devices. Cronyl is not a debit card and does not hold a balance.

Is Cronyl a debit card or payment card?

No. Cronyl is not a debit card and not a bank card. It does not hold a balance and cannot spend funds. It is a metal card that opens a wallet address you already control.

Is Cronyl a wallet?

No. Cronyl connects a physical card to wallet addresses you already control. The wallet remains the wallet. Cronyl is the interface.

Does Cronyl hold crypto?

No. Cronyl is non-custodial. Assets stay in your wallet, on the network you use. Cronyl does not hold a balance, and it cannot move funds.

Does Cronyl store private keys or seed phrases?

No. Cronyl does not ask for private keys, and it does not ask for a seed phrase. It does not store either.

What happens if I lose my card?

A lost card does not give someone your keys, and it does not move your assets. It can expose the receive path you configured, the same way a shared address can.

Which wallets are supported?

The card opens the wallet address you select — with wallets you already use. It does not log in as you.

Which networks are supported?

Networks your wallet already supports. A tap opens the blockchain the address already lives on, and chains can be added as wallets add them. A Gold edition is only a finish. It does not pick a network. Every card opens up to three addresses, any host: hot wallet, cold wallet, or self-hosted.

Which assets are supported?

Crypto, NFTs, and real world assets — whatever the connected wallet can receive. The card does not contain the asset, and Cronyl does not custody it. The transfer settles in your wallet.

Can I connect multiple wallets?

Yes. Each Cronyl card supports up to three wallet addresses. Two cryptocurrencies, three real world assets, three NFTs, or any mix. You choose which address a tap should open. The host can be different on each one.

Can I change my wallets after setup?

No. The wallets are set during setup and cannot be changed afterwards. Assets stay in the wallet you connected. Cronyl does not move them, and it does not ask for a private key.

Can I use Cronyl internationally?

Receiving assets is a function of your wallet and the network, not of the country you are standing in. Shipping of the physical card follows the shipping destinations offered at checkout.

Are there Cronyl transaction fees?

Without fees, and no Cronyl subscription. The card is made to last a lifetime. Network fees, when a transaction has them, are charged by the blockchain and shown by your wallet.

How does receiving crypto work?

Someone taps the card on a compatible phone, the configured wallet experience opens, and they send to your address. The assets arrive in your wallet. Cronyl is not in the middle of the transfer.

What happens when someone taps the card?

A compatible phone reads the card and opens the wallet experience you configured. They see a way to send to your wallet. They do not see your keys.

Does the card work with iPhone?

It works with iPhones that can complete a tap. The tap is the primary path. The destination is still the wallet you configured.

Does it work with Android?

It works with Android phones that can complete a tap. If a device cannot complete a tap, the receive destination remains the wallet address you configured — nothing is held by Cronyl.

Is the card waterproof?

Cronyl does not publish a waterproof rating. The card is a precision object, made to last a lifetime and to be handled, not submerged.

How do Limited Editions work?

Limited editions, including the Gold editions and the Satoshi Nakamoto card, are a finish produced in limited numbers. The cards work the same way.

When does my order ship?

The delivery time is the one shown at checkout for your address. Tracking is sent by email once the order leaves.

What is the return policy?

Returns follow the refund policy published by Cronyl. Eligibility, windows, and condition of the card are described there, not invented at checkout.

How do pre-orders work?

A pre-order reserves a limited edition. You are not receiving crypto by paying for the card. You are buying the physical card.

How is the card secured?

Your location and wallet address are not shown from a distance. A close tap shows them only briefly, then a timer closes the view. The card holds no seed phrase, no private key, and no balance. Those stay in your wallet.
