Anyone here used their Amex platinum on apps like remitly? I know the exchange rate is slightly lower if we pay by CC/DC but I guess if we make MR points should make up for it?

I tried to use Amex on Wise to transfer money and just wouldn’t accept it. Ended up having to use my MC bank debit card.

Got it, thanks! Checked remitly’s site and seems like they don’t accept Amex :/

Does it make up for it though? Isn’t there a 3% surcharge? That seems high

Hi everyone ,

I hope you are well.

How does the US visa work ? Where in the US would you recommend to a black woman that’s scared of guns ?
Looking forward to hearing back xx.
Thank you :).
