Curve “All in One” Card Has a Great Feature to Maximize Rewards
The Curve Card is an interesting product that offers an all-in-one solution for your credit cards. It aggregates multiple payment cards through its accompanying mobile app and let’s you use whichever you want, without needing to carry all those cards in your wallet.
Currently you can only add Mastercard, Discover Diners Club credit cards to the Curve Card. So for now you will still have to carry your Mastercard and American Express cards with you. Mastercard at least should be added soon.
The card has been available in the UK for sometime now, and is now live in the US as well for the first 100 people that joined the waitlist.
There’s also a signup bonus for new users. Curve is offering 10% back for six months, on up to $10,000 in spend for new users. That means that you can earn rewards when using Curve (1% cash back at many merchants after intro offer), which is in addition to the miles and points you earn from your credit card.
You can also go totally card-free by hooking up your Curve card to Apple Pay, Samsung Pay or Google Pay. Any card you add to Curve will work with them, even if your bank doesn’t.
The Curve Card has no annual fee and runs on the Mastercard network as a credit card, even though it is technically a debit card. You can choose between two designs, with one of them being black metal.
Curve has two cool features that you don’t get with your regular credit cards, and it can help you maximize your credit card rewards. You can go back in time and move transactions from one credit card to another, up to 30 days after the transaction was made. Simply tap the transaction you want to move, click “Go Back in Time” and swipe to the card you’d like to pay with instead. So if you make a quick purchase and forget to use the proper card, this feature should take care of those mistakes.
Another useful feature is that you can set up a backup card in case your primary card is declined. That means that your Curve card will never be declined, unless both your top-choice credit cards get declined.

You mean you have to carry your Visa card around. Not Mastercard. You have a typo in your article.
How can you say this:
“The Curve Card is an interesting product that offers an all-in-one solution for your credit cards.”
When a single paragraph later you then say:
“Currently you can only add Mastercard, Discover Diners Club credit cards to the Curve Card. So for now you will still have to carry your Mastercard and American Express cards with you. Mastercard at least should be added soon.”
I doubt if AMEX will EVER be added to the Curve network, but even if it is…. eventually, the article as presented is pure clickbait at this time, especially since only 100 people in the entire USA has gotten one. Amazingly, I know at least TWO bloggers have gotten them so obviously Curve is cherry picking for exposure.
I expect better stuff from all you guys. This is rather disappointing. At least to me.
