It keeps asking me on iOS, even though I've had my cards saved there for two or three years now, yet it still prompts me for them 🤷

Lisa Perez50 said:Same thing happens with PayPal. I wouldn't say it's about the amount, because I've moved anything from $50 up to $1667. A confirmation window pops up and then just closes itself immediately. It’s incredibly convenient, even though I wouldn't mind manually confirming the transaction myself. If the app at least remembered my CVV or if they finally added Google Pay, it would be perfect. 😁

Honestly, even just being able to skip photographing every single new card I add would save me so much hassle. It’s such a chore! I tried using Courtney to get around it, but even that works only half the time.

Looking at the big picture, though, I don't really see AirCash becoming a legitimate, low-cost fintech competitor like Revolut. To me, it feels more like one of those predatory services where everything comes with a catch. What they’re offering for free right now seems like nothing more than a promotional hook; I wouldn't be surprised if they scrap the freebies and revert to their old ways pretty soon. That said, they do have some interesting features for the time being...

I just knocked out six different bills around 6 p.m. today, and I can confirm that the receipts for all of them are coming through perfectly fine. Normally, I don't bother checking those confirmations, but I decided to run a little test just to see if everything was actually functioning correctly... 🤷

Starting January 1st, once Cash App switches over to the dollar, sending money from abroad is going to be much smoother and way more affordable—honestly, most transfers will basically be free. Plus, if you need to include a phone number, you can just tuck it right into the memo or payment description field where there's already an option for it.

For me, my SSN is listed correctly along with the US as my country. Mind you, I actually use N26 from Germany rather than the Canadian version

ironcyclist58 said:So how did you handle the identity verification? Did you hit up a Chase branch or just do it all online?

As for DraftKings, I actually went into a physical branch to verify my ID ages ago—back when they first started requiring it two or three years back. With Venmo, though, I just uploaded a photo of my driver's license online about three or four months ago. Since then, neither platform has asked me for any additional verification. So, which one was giving you trouble, DraftKings or Venmo?

Check out the details here if you actually care: https://draftkings.com/blog/post/zatr...-i-uzmi-100-kn

My card actually arrived today! I put the order in 13 days ago. It’s incredibly easy to activate, and I was able to grab that 2x bonus immediately.$17 👍 The card shows up right away in both the DraftKings app and Venmo. Interestingly, the initial card numbers are exactly the same as a standard Venmo Mastercard.

Is it just me, or is this Curve top-up thing acting totally hit-or-miss lately? It works one minute and then completely fails the next—what gives?

I’m probably a bit late to the party here, but regarding 😁

So, I just gave it a shot using Curve, and everything is working perfectly now.

I keep getting hit with this "Transaction cannot be processed (-30005)" error message. 🤔

I really think I should reach out to Curve and see if they can help me get this working. I know they aren't always fond of prepaid cards, but they've made exceptions for certain ones in the past, right?

By the way, is there any way to make a direct deposit in dollars?

So, am I the only one having trouble? Is it impossible to add this Venmo card to either Curve or Cash App?

And is it just me, or is it flagging a USA country BIN?

I pay my bills through Chime without any fees, and they clear the same day.
The only headache is nailing the exact amount since I'm dealing with currency conversions, so I just overpay by a bit to be safe.
They just credit the extra back to my next bill.

Wait, how are you paying with Chime? Are you talking about that method where you transfer funds to their Routing Number, similar to what works for EU accounts and Chase cards? I used to do something like that through PayPal... but isn't there only one free transfer allowed there now? 🤔

If they had just integrated $0.67, people might have actually stuck with them because of how easy it would be to use. But as it stands, I’m heading right back to my regular banking app where $0.67 is the only fee.

I don't see any reason why that wouldn't work. PayPal doesn't really have any specific restrictions on what kind of card you use.

I absolutely love the idea of building a homegrown fintech industry here in the States. There’s always going to be an advantage when a local player can offer niche features or better incentives than some massive global corporation that views us as just another statistic on a spreadsheet. However—and this is a big however—they really need to shake off that predatory "small-time lender" mentality. That desperate urge to squeeze every cent out of a customer by charging a fee for every single click in an app just won't fly. Years ago, I actually tried to get my hands on their card through DraftKings, but I ended up getting completely frozen out by a mountain of ridiculous service fees. I suspect it's the exact same story with the Chase Sapphire Card. Look, I get it; you need some revenue streams to stay afloat, but you can't tack a commission onto every little thing you do. If they're serious about competing in this space, they need to find some legitimate institutional backers. Why? Because in an era where there are hundreds of nearly free international fintech apps available, a local option that charges premium fees is practically invisible.

So, we're looking at roughly 2.5%? Honestly, that doesn't seem like much at all. 🙂

Once the US officially transitions to the dollar as the sole standard next year, these kinds of shifts are going to get even more interesting.

Has anyone here experimented with using N26 for installment payments yet? I’m curious to know what kind of fees you guys actually ended up paying. It’s pretty strange—for some reason, my unknown installments allow me to split them further into N26 payments, while others just won't let me. 🤔

Does anyone have some firsthand advice on growing into a pair of skinny jeans? I picked up some stretch denim today at Diesel—they’re those Jogg Jeans style with plenty of elastane—but I grabbed one size smaller than my usual. They were on sale, and my actual size was out of stock, so I figured why not? Now, they fit okay, but not quite right either. If they were just one centimeter more forgiving, they would be absolutely perfect... 🤔

But wait, isn't that an American BIN? It’s honestly such a pain when you can't find an American card that actually works for certain services.

Looking back at my collection, I don't think I've ever actually held a Belgian card in my hands. Right now, my active lineup includes cards from the United Kingdom, Ireland, Germany, France, Belgium, Sweden, Russia, the Netherlands, Bulgaria, Poland, and Brazil 🙏 🙏 I hope I haven't missed any 🤣
