Sending money abroad can be frustrating. After working hard earning money to send home to your friends and family, the last thing you want is high fees and poor exchange rates when you make the transfer.<\/p>
Choosing the right money transfer method will save you lots of time and money, so you should do your research beforehand to make sure you find the solution that works best for you!<\/p>
This involves going into a physical location - normally either a bank, post office or remittance outlet and paying your money to a cashier to make the transfer for you. <\/strong><\/p> There are a number of online methods of money transfer which can be done by yourself, from home. They are done using your internet browser or smartphone app.<\/p> These are carried out by uploading money to a mobile-based app, before sending it on to another wallet or bank account.<\/p> Paysend Global Transfers<\/u><\/a> is an online money transfer platform through which users send money via their web browser or the Paysend smartphone app. Money transfers with Paysend cost just £1, $2 or €1.5, and use competitive exchange rates. Money is sent from the user’s Paysend account instantly \(delivery is determined by the recipient’s bank\). <\/strong><\/p> Paysend is different from other money transfer companies because in most countries users can send money directly to cards as well as to bank accounts. This gives all Paysend users extra choice and flexibility for their money transfers.<\/p> Paysend Global Transfers<\/span> uses competitive exchange rates and low, flat fees of just £1, $2 or €1.5 per international money transfer. This can help you save lots of money when compared with traditional money transfer methods, because many high-street banks and remittance outlets charge extra hidden fees.<\/p> Hidden fees can include commissions \(usually a percentage of the amount transferred\) and weak exchange rates. Many banks profit on transfers by giving customers a worse exchange rate than they’d get on the open market. Annoying, right?!<\/p> Choosing a cost-effective money transfer provider is important so that your money will have as much impact as possible when it reaches its destination. The lower the cost of the transfer, the more money will be available to your friends and family when they receive it!<\/p> Paysend<\/span> <\/strong>is on a mission to create a world without borders. Our Global Transfers platform makes it easy for users to send money abroad quickly, cheaply and securely. All of our money transfers enjoy excellent exchange rates and no hidden fees.<\/p> To get started, head to the App Store<\/u><\/a> or Google Play<\/u><\/a> and download the Paysend app.<\/span><\/p> <\/p> Download<\/a><\/p>","description2":"","rank":null,"slug":"article-your--guide-to-money-transfers","preview_text":" Sending money abroad can be frustrating.

But what about making payments to another person’s bank account using your card? Is it possible to recreate the speed and simplicity of in-store payments when moving money in this way?<\/span><\/p> Normally, credit cards are only used to pay for goods and services and aren’t the prime method of getting money into savings or current accounts. However, there are certain cases where it’s more convenient to transfer money from a credit card instead of using a traditional bank-to-bank transfer. This could include:<\/p> It’s possible, however, to transfer money straight from your credit card to your or someone else’s bank account, although there are a number of things you should be aware of so you don’t end up paying too much for your transfer in extra fees.<\/p> There are different mobile apps through which money transfers from credit cards to bank accounts have become quick and easy. You can download these apps to your mobile to make the transfers from the comfort of your own phone - they’re available on both Android and iOS devices. Balance transfers through these platforms are also available on desktops, laptops and tablets.<\/p> Money transfer credit cards are also available, which are similar to balance transfer cards, but allow you to transfer money directly to bank accounts. This is a feature which balance transfer cards don’t have. Money transfer cards give you a period of time to repay the money at 0% interest, in exchange for paying a money transfer fee.<\/p> With Paysend you can transfer money from credit cards directly to a bank account. Here’s how it’s done:<\/p> Download the Paysend app now<\/a><\/p> <\/p> More information on this process can be found <\/span>here<\/u><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p> Using credit cards to generate credit in your bank account moves away from their intended use, which could cause some unexpected difficulties.<\/p> Banks may charge additional fees for transferring money to accounts from credit cards. In addition, defaulting to pay credit card dues after the statement is issued will fetch a fine of 3-4% monthly \(or even more\) on the outstanding amount. This will cost much more for transferred money in comparison to acquiring funds in a legitimate way.<\/p> Although there are certain restrictions and fees involved in transferring funds from a credit card to a savings or current account, it will still be cheaper than opting for a personal loan or withdrawing cash from a credit card that incurs high interest rates and charges.<\/p> Based on the capability you require and the amount required to transfer from your credit card to a bank account, you should be able to choose the right method of transfer for you.<\/p>","description2":"","rank":null,"slug":"article-how-to-transfer-money-from-credit-card-to-bank-accounts","preview_text":" Credit cards became a more popular payment method than cash in the UK <\/span>for the first time in 2019<\/u><\/span><\/a>, thanks to the speed and simplicity they bring to in-store and online payments… <\/span><\/p>","createdAt":"2023-05-16T10:56:34.066Z","updatedAt":"2023-11-10T09:26:45.797Z","publishedAt":"2023-05-16T10:57:49.521Z","locale":"en","img":{"id":2089,"name":"BL019_01_credit_1200.png","alternativeText":"How to transfer money from credit card to bank accounts","caption":null,"width":1200,"height":630,"formats":{"large":{"ext":".png","url":"https:\/\/cloud.paysend.com\/strapi\/prod\/large_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365.png","hash":"large_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365","mime":"image\/png","name":"large_BL019_01_credit_1200.png","path":null,"size":83.16,"width":1000,"height":525},"small":{"ext":".png","url":"https:\/\/cloud.paysend.com\/strapi\/prod\/small_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365.png","hash":"small_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365","mime":"image\/png","name":"small_BL019_01_credit_1200.png","path":null,"size":30.71,"width":500,"height":263},"medium":{"ext":".png","url":"https:\/\/cloud.paysend.com\/strapi\/prod\/medium_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365.png","hash":"medium_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365","mime":"image\/png","name":"medium_BL019_01_credit_1200.png","path":null,"size":53.92,"width":750,"height":394},"thumbnail":{"ext":".png","url":"https:\/\/cloud.paysend.com\/strapi\/prod\/thumbnail_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365.png","hash":"thumbnail_BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365","mime":"image\/png","name":"thumbnail_BL019_01_credit_1200.png","path":null,"size":13.2,"width":245,"height":129}},"hash":"BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365","ext":".png","mime":"image\/png","size":16.1,"url":"https:\/\/cloud.paysend.com\/strapi\/prod\/BL_019_01_credit_1200_2e3a5c6365.png","previewUrl":null,"provider":"strapi-provider-upload-aws-s3-plus-cdn","provider_metadata":null,"createdAt":"2023-05-17T12:15:47.126Z","updatedAt":"2023-05-25T06:02:09.753Z","folderPath":"\/"},"tiles_section":[],"quote_section":[],"categories":[{"id":1,"title":"All articles","value":"all-articles","createdAt":"2023-05-16T10:53:37.864Z","updatedAt":"2023-05-16T10:53:39.907Z","publishedAt":"2023-05-16T10:53:39.902Z"},{"id":2,"title":"Money Transfer Guides","value":"money-transfer-guides","createdAt":"2023-05-18T06:41:07.061Z","updatedAt":"2023-05-18T06:46:56.605Z","publishedAt":"2023-05-18T06:41:40.106Z"}],"except_countries":[{"id":204,"name":"USA","code_a2":"US","ISO":840,"createdAt":"2022-04-19T09:42:00.282Z","updatedAt":"2025-01-23T14:00:01.015Z","services_info":"We can send USD from USA and deliver in local currency to over 70 countries.","link_code":null}],"seo":{"id":29,"metaTitle":"Credit Card to Bank Transfers Guide","metaDescription":"Learn how to transfer funds from credit cards to bank accounts for urgent needs, international payments, and fee considerations.
