What is a currency exchange rate?

A currency exchange rate represents the value of one currency in terms of another. It tells you how much of one currency you can get in exchange for a unit of another currency. For example, if the exchange rate between the US Dollar (USD) and the Euro (EUR) is 0.92, it means that 1 USD is equivalent to 0.92 EUR. Exchange rates fluctuate due to various factors like economic conditions, interest rates, and geopolitical events.

Do you offer gift cards?

No, we do not currently offer gift cards.

What is the difference between a compromised card and a data breach?

A compromised card occurs when an individual's credit or debit card information is stolen or fraudulently used by someone without authorization. A data breach involves the unauthorized access of personal information from a company's database.

What is the difference between a debit card and a credit card?

A debit card is directly linked to the available funds in your checking account and allows you to withdraw money or make purchases without borrowing. In contrast, a credit card provides a credit line that you can borrow against. You pay later, but interest applies if the balance isn’t paid within the grace period.

Do you offer custom card designs?

We only offer one standardized card design for each card type at this time.
