Forums Payment cards Other payment cards Using Curve to make a payment via Xoom

  • 34 posts

    Hi all,

    I recently got a service charge bill which requires payment to a bank account, and Xoom (a Paypal service) allows for money to be sent from a debit or credit card to a local UK bank account. While I am conscious that I would incur cash advance fees when using a credit card, would Curve help me avoid any such fee with an underlying credit card? Aware that Wise transactions do charge cash advance fees, but not seen much talk about Xoom.

    Thanks!

    If it’s going to get charged for Wise it’s 99% that it will be charged for Xoom. Xoom would have to be incorrectly categorised inside mastercard/visa for this to work in your favour, which is very unlikely.

    That is very helpful, thank you!
