About Curve
In need of one card to rule them all? Curve is a good option for you. It aims to distance itself from traditional banks and provide just one place to manage all your spending, savings and money transfers from. By connecting all your accounts, Curve defines itself not only by its mobile nature but also by working as a virtual bookkeeper. Rather than looking through a mountain of receipts or tabs of online statements, Curve takes a record and lets you know what you’ve been spending. Also, its 24/7 availability is definitely a plus.
