I can also recommend this one

Also a debit card, comes with 2% on Google, Samsung and Apple pay, unlimited Dragon Pass for only 4000 KZT per month, free if you deposit 5M tenge in their deposit account at 13.8% interest, fully insured up to 20m KZT.

Kazakhstan is a country wirh strict currency control. Once you send your money there, it is in Kazakhstan forever without a special permit. Card official currency is Tenge. If you have USD and want to pay in USD with card, you loose up to 5 percent in exchange USD-Tenge-USD

Have you actually opened the link or even owned the card? It is a multi-currency card in KZT, EUR, USD. Why would it go to KZT and then back?

Also, what is the problem with capital controls if you use a debit card?

Note from the homepage: Non-residents of the Republic of Kazakhstan, customers with a residence permit, and persons under the age of 18 years, are required to visit a Bank outlet to open the card.

nearly all AMEX cards don't allow unlimited Priority Pass visits since last year, they changed the rules!

Get yourself Revolut Ultra (600 EUR py), Dragonpass included with unlimited visits

 

[SCHLOSSFINANZ]

maybe get yourself the Trading 212 Mastercard. It has 0,5% cashback and no fees and 3,7% interest on your deposits.
From the cashback you can buy many lounge vouchers lol

No. Every other AMEX Platinium has unlimited lounge access.
Unfortunately I can't use Revolut Ultra, it's for EEA citizens, which I'm not.

 

[SCHLOSSFINANZ]

this is totally untrue. In Germany 50 per year are only allowed, Switzerland and Austria will change it shortly according to AMEX SVP I spoke to recently.

Get yourself a Bulgarian address (cheap) and apply for Revolut Ultra via that route

Not available in my country, probably only EEA countries. I should register on the waiting list. Lol. It's hopeless for me.

It's about residents certainly not citizens. Maybe Nobel can enlight us about his citizenship and residency
