4 steps for sending money to Mexico from the US

In 2021, there were about 10.7 million Mexican immigrants living  in the US. And in looking for opportunities to improve their lives, some of these immigrants had to make the difficult choice to move from their home country, parting with their friends and family for long stretches of time. 

Thankfully, with innovative technology, you are able to remain connected with loved ones, despite physical distance, whether that’s emotionally, mentally or financially. 

Financially supporting loved ones through digital remittances

Between paying for medical bills, housing, food, schooling and more, people all over the world are doing what they can to earn a proper wage to meet their living needs. We hear from our customers that in addition to their own needs, they are often caring for loved ones back home by offering financial support to cover the basic necessities.

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.
