Frequently asked questions
How much is the monthly fee?+
The monthly fee is €0, so the card costs nothing to keep. On that measure it ranks 1 of 422 brands in the comparison, and the cost score for the card is 7.2. Customers load money onto the card and spend from that balance.
What is the currency conversion fee?+
The conversion fee is 0%, and it ranks 1 of 258 brands on that measure. bunq's conversion fee runs 0.5% to 3%, so the two cards sit far apart on cost when money is converted. A fee of that shape matters most to anyone paying outside the home currency.
How many currencies does the card cover?+
The card covers 1 currency, the euro the bank issues it in. Spending in another currency means converting, and the card's conversion fee is 0%. Holders who need several currencies at once are better served by a card built for that, such as bunq, whose fee runs 0.5% to 3%.
What kind of card is it, and what network does it use?+
It is a prepaid card, so money is loaded onto it before spending rather than drawn on credit. The card runs on the mastercard network, and it is built around 1 currency rather than a basket of them.
How do I get help with the card?+
Support runs on phone and email, so questions go by phone or by email to Banka Credins Kosove Sh.a.. Both channels are offered in Kosovo, the bank's home market. There is no chat or app messaging in that list, so anyone who prefers messaging will need to call or write.
Which company issues the card?+
The card is issued by Banka Credins Kosove Sh.a., which is headquartered in Kosovo. The card and the money behind it sit with the same institution, and the legal name on the terms is the one to quote when raising a query through phone and email.
Who is this card for?+
It suits residents of XK who want a Mastercard for everyday spending with a monthly fee of €0 and a conversion fee of 0%. It does not suit anyone who needs several currencies held at once, since the card covers 1 currency, or anyone building credit, who would look at the Varo Believe Secured Credit Card.
