How can you have money sent from one credit card to your credit card?

Someone is trying to send me money from their credit card - can they send it directly to my credit card?|||You can transfer money directly from one bank account to another bank account - for a fee, but I have never heard of transferring money from a credit card to another credit card. Call the company that issued your card to see if this is legit.|||Normally, no, unless you have a merchant account and can accept credit cards.|||I smell a scam.|||No - the system is set up deliberately to prevent this, to avoid a particular type of fraud.





The money has to go through at least one bank account (current or chequing account). Cash advance paid into your bank account, you then pay into your credit card account.





NB this is a very expensive way of doing things!
