BTC-e is charging 5% for VISA and Mastercard withdrawals - which exchanges are charging 0.2-0.5%?

Btw , you can withdraw directly to you bank account in most cases which can be linked to a visa card so I don't understand why such high fees.
For 1000 euros it will be 50euros , compared to only 10.

I don't see VISA/Mastercard withdrawls on the list, only money transfers. VISA and Mastercard charge several % for accepting payment, and I would imagine that this is the case for sending in this case as well, which would be part of it.

Fair point on the bank transfers - not sure why they're higher.

I don't know to much about how things work in other part of the world but here in my country

I make a withdraw to my bank account , which has a visa card or mastercard attached to it. It's the same thing and why bother with the high fees?

Fair comment - I think it might be easier for people internationally and with credit card, you have insurance, etc though.
