How It Works (Poland)

1. Invite friends to Paysend
2. Each successful referral counts toward your total
3. Prizes go to the customers who refer the highest number of friends

Credit card to bank transfer: how it works, costs and speed

Here's the short answer: yes, you can use a credit card to get money into someone's bank account abroad. "Credit card to bank transfer" means exactly that — you fund the transfer with your credit card, and your recipient receives it in their bank account. Or on their card, in their wallet, or as cash to collect, depending on where they are.

The card and the bank account do different jobs. Your card pays for the transfer. A provider like Paysend then pays the money out through local systems on the other end. It's one flow, and it takes about a minute in the app.

One thing worth knowing before you start: a credit card is usually the most expensive way to fund a transfer. Some issuers treat it as a cash advance, and credit tends to carry higher payment fees than debit. You'll always see the full cost, exchange rate included, before you confirm anything. What follows is: the ways your money can arrive, what each one costs, how fast it gets there, and the cheaper routes worth checking first.

Pavel Štich im Porträt: Wie er tschechischen und slowakischen Lesern hilft, Geld nach Hause zu senden

Jeden Monat schicken Tausende Menschen, die in Tschechien arbeiten, einen Teil ihres Gehalts nach Hause – viele von ihnen sind Ukrainer, die Familie jenseits der Grenze unterstützen. Und der klassische Weg macht es schwerer, als es sein müsste: Banküberweisungen, die IBAN und SWIFT-Codes verlangen, Gebühren, die erst sichtbar werden, wenn das Geld schon weg ist, und tagelanges Warten, während zu Hause jemand darauf angewiesen ist.

Pavel Štich hilft seinen Lesern seit Jahren genau dabei, dieses Problem zu lösen. Er ist Mitgründer und Chefredakteur für Finanzen bei Moneyo.cz, einer unabhängigen tschechischen Plattform, die Geldtransferdienste, Aktienbroker und alternative Investments vergleicht – und Paysend-Botschafter, was bedeutet: Er testet selbst, was er empfiehlt, erklärt es verständlich und bietet seinen Lesern exklusive Vorteile. Wir haben ihn gefragt, wie Moneyo entstanden ist, wer die Plattform liest und warum er sich für Paysend entschieden hat.
