The Robinhood Investing card is a debit card which you get once you have been approved for a Robinhood account. The card works just as a regular debit card would. However, instead of your money coming from a regular bank account, it comes directly from your investment account.

You can opt for both a virtual or physical debit card. You can use it almost anywhere they accept Mastercard, as long as you have enough available cash. This means you won’t be able to make payments with invested money, only with money sitting idle in your account.
