ZEST wallet questions, answered
What's the best Zest Protocol wallet app?
That depends on what you want to do with your ZEST. If you're holding only, any non-custodial wallet works. If you also want to use Zest Protocol for real-world spending through the Zypto Premium Visa Card, pay bills, top up phones, or swap into other assets, Zypto App is purpose-built for that while still being fully non-custodial.

Can I use Zest Protocol for real-world spending without selling it?
Through the Zypto Premium Visa Card, your ZEST balance is converted at the point of sale, so you use the value of your crypto for real-world spending wherever Visa is accepted, subject to eligibility and applicable limits. You can also swap ZEST into stablecoins in-app for bill pay or gift cards.
