You may have heard buzz around a relatively new player in the financial tech space called Curve allowing customers to combine multiple cards into one. But what exactly is a Curve card and how does it work?

In simple terms, the Curve card enables you to link multiple debit and credit cards you already own to one single Curve card and app. Instead of reaching into your wallet for a specific payment card at checkout or an ATM, the Curve card can serve as an intermediary, drawing funds from any of your connected accounts.

Within the Curve app, you designate which underlying debit or credit card should serve as the default payment source when using your Curve card for transactions. However, you retain the flexibility to change this default card “on the fly” for any purchase.

The app also allows customers to easily switch payment sources for past Curve transactions, unlocking the ability to optimize spending on cards with the best perks or rewards rates for those purchases long after leaving the checkout counter.

On top of centralized spending oversight and money management efficiencies gained, Curve also touts exclusive incentives around cashback rewards, cryptocurrency payouts and more based on market partnerships and user engagements within its connected applications ecosystem.

So in short, the Curve card removes traditional payment card barriers through flexibility, money organization tools, and tailored loyalty benefits.
