On $500/mo spend, the estimated monthly cost breakdown for WaldenPay Virtual Card is: gas $0.50, conversion spread $25.00, flat transaction fees $0.00, and amortised card/tier fee $0.00, for a total drag of 5.1% of spend. After $0.00/mo cashback that is still a net cost of about $25.50/mo ($306.00/yr). Because WaldenPay Virtual Card is loaded on-chain, frequent small top-ups add gas cost: a daily-spender profile pays about $10.00/mo in gas versus $0.50/mo for a single monthly load, so total drag runs 7% with daily reloads versus 5.1% with a monthly reload.
