Frequently Asked Questions

How much do ATM fees cost on average?

The average total ATM fee for out-of-network withdrawals is about $4.73 per transaction, combining the bank surcharge and operator fee. For someone making 4 withdrawals per month, that totals over $227 per year in unnecessary fees.

How can I avoid ATM fees?

Use your bank's in-network ATMs, switch to a bank that reimburses ATM fees (many online banks do), get cash back at stores, or use digital payment methods. Some credit unions participate in shared ATM networks with thousands of free locations.

How much is a credit card cash advance fee?

The CFPB says the card company may charge a flat fee or a percentage of the advance. The 5% with a $10 minimum used as the default here is a common structure, not a CFPB figure, so read the fee line in your own card agreement.

Is there a grace period on a cash advance?

Generally no. The CFPB says interest on a cash advance starts as soon as you withdraw the money, unlike purchases, which usually have a grace period. The CFPB also says you will commonly pay a higher interest rate on a cash advance.
