Things You Should Know
- Bring your credit card and photo ID to a bank that accepts your card and ask for a cash advance at the teller window.
- Get cash back at a store with your credit card, or buy a prepaid debit card and take it to an ATM.
- As an alternative way to pay, use convenience checks or purchase a money order.
- Be aware that withdrawing cash from your credit card charges you a fee and a higher interest rate that starts accruing immediately.
