Making a positive difference in communities through digital money transfers

We all have a responsibility to make a positive change. As our society continues to recuperate from hardships accelerated by the pandemic, people and communities around the world need more support than ever before.

We’ve made it a goal of ours to help uplift communities around the globe by enabling customers to connect and support loved ones and their communities through our easy-to-use and affordable digital money solutions. That’s why we were thrilled to see that several of our customers entered our WeConnect Sweepstakes for a chance to send their winnings to organizations making a difference in their home countries.

If the past two years after the onset of the pandemic have taught us anything, it is to cherish those we care deeply for, letting them know just how much they mean to us. Because a simple act of kindness can go a long way and make a huge impact!

As we continue our transition into a post-COVID-19 way of living, we all must do our part to get our communities back up and running, especially by supporting those less fortunate. And with Paysend’s digital money transfer platform, you can do just that. In fact, we’re already seeing our customers use our service to give back.

One of our customers living in British Columbia sends money to her brother back home in Uganda, where he works with an organization helping children with cerebral palsy retrieve medicine and other basic needs.

Another one of our customers living in Florida also wanted to use his sweepstakes winnings to send money to his friend in the Philippines to help diabetics living in her community.

So, even if you can’t offer physical support by volunteering back home, you can still provide financial help to those in need.

Give back to your community with Paysend

We all have the potential to lend a hand and make a positive change in the world, and it starts at home. Remember to reach out to your neighbors, colleagues, friends, and family members and try to offer support them in whatever way works best for you.

Our team strives to make a difference in the realm of financial technology by delivering low fees and quick transfer speeds, so that customers like you can make a difference within your community.

Download the Paysend app* from the App Store or Google Play, or visit our homepage now to use our digital money transfer platform to help those in need.

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

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.

Cunoaște-l pe Pavel Štich: cum îi ajută pe cititorii cehi și slovaci să trimită bani acasă

În fiecare lună, mii de persoane care lucrează în Cehia trimit acasă o parte din salariu — mulți dintre ei sunt ucraineni care își sprijină familia de peste graniță. Iar drumul tradițional îngreunează ceea ce ar trebui să fie simplu: transferuri bancare care cer IBAN și coduri SWIFT, comisioane care apar abia după ce banii au plecat deja, și zile de așteptare în timp ce cineva de acasă contează pe ei.

Pavel Štich își ajută cititorii de ani de zile să rezolve exact această problemă. Este cofondator și redactor-șef finanțe la Moneyo.cz, o platformă cehă independentă care compară serviciile de transfer de bani, brokerii bursieri și investițiile alternative — și Ambasador Paysend, ceea ce înseamnă că testează personal tot ce recomandă, explică simplu și oferă cititorilor săi avantaje exclusive. L-am întrebat cum a apărut Moneyo, cine îl citește și de ce a ales Paysend.
