Want to send money to a loved one in France or abroad?

  • Now it’s easy to transfer money to loved ones, wherever they are*. Transcash offers a simple and immediate solution from a fully secure online area.
  • The transaction is similar to a bank transfer but instead of being made from one account to another, it is made from one card to another. As easy as sending an SMS, transferring money to a loved one is now child’s play, wherever they are. Thanks to Transcash and the Mastercard network, the reloaded card can be used immediately all over the world*.

Transfert money to your red card

Simplicity!

To make your money transfers, give your red card to the person of your choice (aged 13 or over) and transfer money to them from your black card by:

  • Telephone
  • Internet
  • or via the Transcash France app

The beneficiary (red card holder) will receive their money instantly.

Only customers using the ESSENTIAL Formula or MAX Formula can give a red card to a loved one to make money transfers (up to 3 red cards per Pack).

A single transfer of up to €150 is allowed when activating the red card.

In order to increase the limits of the red card (same limits as the black card), make more transfers and make payments and withdrawals throughout the global Mastercard network, the holder of the red card will have to submit his/her valid proof of identity to Transcash by emailing it to [email protected]

How do I choose my purchase category on the ACCESS formula?

In order to activate your Black Card in the ACCESS Formula , you must first select a category from the list below.  This category will determine the nature of your purchases.

Each category is associated with a code from 0 to 9. This code is required in order to activate your Card.

Important information:

  • If you make a mistake, you can change the category just one time at www.transcash.fr in the “my account” section, so long as you have not completed any transactions.
  • To no longer be limited to a single category and make payments and withdrawals throughout the Mastercard global network, bear in mind that you can switch to the ESSENTIAL Formula free of charge at any time (by providing your identity document) or to the MAX Formula (by providing your proof of identity and residence) in the “my account” 
    section.
