A few credit cards allow you to borrow money from an ATM without using the balance in your checking account. Such cards use Visa, Discover, Mastercard and Amex.
How to use a credit card to withdraw cash at an ATM
To use this service, you need a pin. You can get a pin online or through your email.
To withdraw money from an ATM using your credit card, you first insert your card into the machine, then enter your pin and the amount of money you need to withdraw. The ATM then gives you your money and a receipt.
You can get an error if you have insufficient credit for the amount you want to withdraw or if you enter the wrong pin.
Some card issuers provide an online service that helps you find the nearest in-network ATM the company owns. These machines do not charge you an extra fee for the withdrawal.
One disadvantage of this service is that companies charge a high-interest rate for the transaction, so you must pay your debt as quickly as possible. Your card issuer may also impose limits on the number and amount of withdrawals you can make in a day.
How to withdraw cash from a credit card without a pin
There are many ways to get some money from your credit card without using an ATM. One way is to use a human teller. You can go to a bank that has access to your account and ask the teller for the cash advance. The bank will expect you to provide identification and fill a request form.
Your credit card issuer can give you checks which use money from your credit card rather than your bank account.
If you have a prepaid or debit card, you can use cashback to pay for a purchase and the cashback amount. The merchant then gives you the cash and the purchased item together with your receipt.
You can deposit money from your credit card to your bank account and vice versa. Apps like Venmo and transfer services like Western Union and MoneyGram allow you to transfer money.
