Since the card was bought on 14/7/2015, the card warranty is expired. vs Since the card is bought on 14/7/2015, the card warranty is expired.

The correct phrase is: 'since the card was bought on 14/7/2015, the card warranty is expired.' The use of 'was bought' is appropriate in this context to indicate a past action. 'is bought' would imply a present action, which is not suitable in this case.
