Kalibra

Kalibra was a prepaid card and digital-wallet product offering online payments and spending via a linked card. It had limited adoption and is not a prominent or reliably available betting-deposit method today. The entry exists for legacy reference.

Kalibra was a prepaid, reloadable card issued in Italy by Banco Popolare. It worked like any other prepaid card: you loaded it with funds in person or at an ATM and then used it wherever its card network was accepted. Banco Popolare merged into Banco BPM on 1 January 2017, and Banco BPM's current reloadable prepaid card is Carta Prep@id rather than Kalibra.

However, Italy strictly regulates online betting, only concession holders may serve Italian players, and the customs and gaming agency ADM blocks unauthorised gambling sites.

Kalibra could be loaded in person at a Banco Popolare branch, online through a Banco Popolare account, or at the bank's ATMs. Banco Popolare no longer exists as a brand: it merged with Banca Popolare di Milano on 1 January 2017 to form Banco BPM.

The Kalibra Account

Kalibra cards and the online account were managed by Banco Popolare, which is now part of Banco BPM. Furthermore, the online account area only supplies the most basic information you need to manage your card. It cannot be used to make purchases in your name; you must have access to the physical card to make any transactions.

Kalibra: No Longer Available

Kalibra is recorded on this site as discontinued. Kalibra carries this status note, as we hold it: “Replaced by Carta Prep@id”. Kalibra keeps a page so an old link still resolves.

Kalibra: What We Record Instead

Kalibra has no country and no betting site recorded against it here. Kalibra therefore has no replacement this page can name from our own records. Kalibra was an e-wallet; the live ones are on the e-wallets page.

Kalibra: What This Page Does Not Claim

Kalibra carries no fee, no limit and no processing time here. Kalibra is described by the status we record, not by its own notices. Kalibra is worth checking at the source before you act on this.
