PROBLEMS IN USING TRADITIONAL MONEY TRANSFER SERVICES

Sending money across borders has always been tiresome and expensive, with hidden charges at every step. For example, if you’re sending money to India, your options are:

‍

1. Withdraw money from the bank and make a wire transfer.

2. Transfer directly from your bank via a middleman agency

‍

The agency will convert the currency and make the international transfer for you. In either case, there may be a significant cost to remit the money and several more stages.

If you need to send money quickly in case of an emergency, the transfer will be slowed by long procedures. It’s also possible that the payment app you use isn’t available in the country where your family lives.

It's not difficult to transfer money abroad, but as you can see, it is an obsolete procedure that does not deliver the ideal experience for either the sender or the recipient.

Sharing a credit card might be quite beneficial here. It cuts out the middleman and streamlines the entire procedure.

USING A TRADITIONAL CREDIT CARD FOR REMITTANCE HAS ITS CHALLENGES

Many of the issues with conventional credit cards are resolved if you use Xare. Traditional credit cards are excellent for establishing credit and personal use. They aren't always the ideal choice, though, when moving money abroad. You can obtain a conventional credit card and ask for an extra card for a permitted user who resides abroad. But to achieve this, the card issuer could impose an annual fee.

Additionally, bear in mind that certain cards include a foreign transaction fee, which means you may be charged anywhere from 1% to 3% of the purchase price if the card is used overseas.

Additionally, you alone are responsible for paying the bill, while your authorized user will have access to your whole credit limit.

There may be noway to control the user’s spending, and if you are unable to pay the bill in full, keeping a high debt each month may harm your credit score in addition to adding to your financial stress.

Xare has none of these problems.
