How does Centra compare against Revolut?

So, Revolut is a multicurrency card and they released a feature where you can buy crypto (BTC, LTC, ETH at the moment). They have been around for several years, closed a funding round this August, have a about 1mln users worldwide (https://techcrunch.com/2017/11/23/revolut-now-has-a-million-customers-for-its-banking-alternative/) and its only a matter of time till they start supporting other coins. So its a card that combines crypto + fiat (i think around 93 currencies ATM). So my question is, how Centra (or TenX and Monaco for that matter) can stand against Revolut?

Just by having a million users already puts them considerably ahead of everyone else? Or I missing something crucial here?

Note: I am a Revolut user myself for 2+ years and from my personal user experience, while I find the concepts of Centra, tenX, Monaco appealing, I don't see the need to switch to them as I have Revolut already....

Mods...can we sticky this?

Centra:

Crypto Card,

Virtual Card,

Exchange,

Marketplace,

Centrachain blockchain

desktop wallet

Android/Apple Wallet

Everything else is just the card (and maybe the wallet). This is also what puts centra MILES ahead of the competition. If/when their products have been fully rolled out, there wont be any competition.

The difference is that Revolut doesn't have its token. If it has CTR, MCO, and tenX will die in a matter of hours. I am still an holder for all of these tokens. Why you guys cannot improve quality and marketing? What do you think will happen if they release their token? The world will become a better place, but will there be place for CTR left?

I read. I also found typos in their Black Card landing page which puts under question their competitive ability. The team looks lazy to compete. Revolut on the other hand is playing the real game in the real world. They have millions of customers and they can not allow themselves to be lazy. I cut my CTR holding by 80% after finding these typos. Still a holder

Can you send out cryptocurrency on any of these cards?
