Polis Project Weekly Updates (07/29 to 08/06)
PolisPay cards
The PolisPay cards are finally back.
Several months after the cancellation of the PolisPay card, we are delighted to announce that the PolisPay card is back. You can read the full announcement here:

We were overwhelmed by the amount of support and excitement from our community, so we wanted to take some time to answer some FAQ about the cards:
When will the card be released?
At the moment there is no exact release date, although the release is scheduled for the Q4. Stay tuned for further updates!
If I already had a PolisPay card, will I be able to use it?
If you had the PolisPay card issued by MasterCard, you wouldn’t be able to use your card as the providers have changed. Union Pay will provide new cards.
Will the beta testers from the past card remain the same, or will they change?
If you were a beta tester from the previous card, you would remain a beta tester for the new card.
I’m interested in being a beta tester. What can I do?
If you like to apply for the new card, please fill this form:
If you have any other questions, feel free to contact us on our official social media network accounts.
