Hi,
I was trying to add my Revolut card into my barclaycard Visa credit card to pay the balance and I get this notification about the Revolut card
It says it is not a valid card. I have used the card to make a payment using my PIN successfully. I have double checked the number etc.
What gives?
Actually, Revolut’s card is a prepaid card, not debit card. Maybe there is the problem…
You might want to double check Revolut‘s T&Cs. i remember vaguely they don’t allow payments to other financial institutions by card. You can make a bank transfer to your Barclays account, though.
Yeah, that is what I did - I transferred the money instead. I always do that with Transferwise anyway, just thought it would be quicker & easier to have another card stored for paying the Visa card off.
TransferWise gives you a debit card, revolut’s present itself a prepaid card. A work around I found was to use Curve in front of :r:'s
this also helps with the withdrawal limits on supported currencies btw
That’s interesting. Not come across Curve. I will investigate that, thank you.
So, if I was withdrawing cash from an ATM from Revolut card via Curve, the monthly limit would be bypassed?
I think Transferwise has not fully rolled out the debit cards. Last time I logged in to my main dashboard it said that they were coming at some point.
Obviously not. You are still using the same Revolut card in the background 
correct. just be careful to set the right currency on the curve app so they don’t do any currency exchange. it’s cheap but :r:evolut’s is better
the thing is the underlying card sees the withdrawal as a purchase. so revolut in this case doesn’t count it as cash withdrawal and therefore you aren’t affected by that limit
really? Wow, I have to check it then 
Thank you!
and if that’s not enough, curve has cashback on some stores
it’s the perfect companion for your :r: card. _Sign up with code ULEJD & get £5 http://bit.ly/2cSm3VB_
