How do I avoid cash advance fees?

You can avoid cash advance fees by applying to Nyble and opting for standard delivery or by applying to Bree as a first-time customer and doing the 30-day trial.

What app lets me get an instant cash advance for free?

There aren't any cash advance apps in Canada that offer instant cash advances for free. If you need instant funding, expect to pay a fee for the convenience.

Are there free credit card cash advances?

No. Credit card cash advances are high-interest transactions. Interest starts accruing immediately after the withdrawal, and an additional fee usually applies.
