If you make a transaction below your cash balance then it’s taken from there irrespective of which card you have selected, I’ve been really impressed.

Just for completeness, you can choose whether or not it uses Curve Cash by default for new transactions below the cash balance. Configurable in the Curve Cash options. The only reason I can think of for not doing it is that you don’t earn cashback if you pay using Curve cash itself, although for individual small transactions the difference is obviously not significant.
