Thanks for the heads up!
Interesting.. Thanks for the heads up. First time use another CC or Debit card then once relationship is built then can use Visa.. Strange

It is simply not so. I have made payments on Plastiq using Visa cards and they posted as a purchase, not a cash advance.

Please read the article and the replies to the post. It is charging a CA fee to new customers until they establish a relationship, then it will no longer be the case. I understand you are not being charged but Plastiq is warning new customers that if they proceed with the transaction a CA fee will be assessed. The articles have been written for a reason, it's not just people blowing smoke out of their behind.
Most simple solution for most is to drop their Cash Advance limits down to 0 or 100 or whatever is the lowest possible to avoid this possible issue if in doubt.

Thanks for the info. I've only used MasterCards with Plastiq. Never had a issue. I've also used MasterCards to fund new bank and CU accounts up to $2500. I've never had an issue with it posting as a cash advance. That being said, I've seen several members use Visa from certain lenders that didn't post as a cash advance.
I used my QS VS the other day to fund a new account. I it!
