New Curve Send feature enables customers to send or receive money from any account to any account internationally, and free of charge
London – 20th December 2019 – Today, Curve, the Over-The-Top banking platform that consolidates multiple cards and accounts into one smart card and even smarter app, has launched Curve Send, the first product of its kind that enables customers to send and receive money from any account to any account free of charge and without any currency conversion fees.
Curve Send is the first feature Curve has launched that is not directly connected to the Curve card and is particularly unique as, for the first time, it allows Curve customers to send money instantly and free of charge from any account connected to Curve directly into any other account – be it Monzo, Lloyds or Bank of America. It also breaks new ground for customers as it eliminates the lengthy money transfer process experienced by many when they want to send money to their friends or peers using multiple bank accounts or multiple currencies.
To transfer money via Curve Send is a simple process, all a Curve customer has to do is open the Curve app, choose a contact and amount before selecting any of their bank cards from which to send the money.
Once the money has been sent, the recipient, if they are a Curve customer already, just has to select the bank card on which they would like to receive the money. If the recipient is not a Curve customer, they simply enter their bank card details or take a photo of their bank card via a link which will be shared by the sender. Once complete, Curve will send the money directly to that bank account, fee free.
Curve’s unique position as an Over-The-Top banking platform enables it to deliver a seamless experience for customers transferring money in over 25 different currencies.
“Customers want to send money to their friends and family with just a few touches. But with so many different options and the rise of challenger banks, the process is unnecessarily complicated, and customers end up having 3-4 apps just to send money” said Diego Rivas, Curve’s Head of OS Product. “We wanted to make this whole process ten times easier for our customers. Now they have one simple, smart platform which can move money from any account to any account, securely and fee free,” he added.
Curve Send is Curve’s first ground-breaking product since its successful fundraising rounds earlier this year. In September Curve became the fastest startup in history to raise £6M in crowdfunding on Crowdcube. After initially smashing its £1M target in under five minutes it became the fastest to reach £4M, achieving this in just 40 minutes. In July Curve closed its series B funding round, valuing the business at a quarter of a billion dollars. Earlier this month, the all-your-cards-in-one business also announced integrations with both Google Pay, Samsung Pay and a suite of wearables, enabling millions of users to be able to pay with Curve on their devices.

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association
Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.
For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.
The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.
Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.
Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.
For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
