I've recently become a fan. You transfer money to Revolut card, and wherever you travel you, when you pay with the card, they convert currency at the interbank exchange rates and take 0 fees for that. My bank charges 3% transaction fee if I pay in a different currency other than GBP. You can also use it for online payments as well. It is available worldwide.

Cheers Nikita! Thanks for being a fan of Revolut.
In Germany I am using Number26 () and they work great. I am in love with them. This looks similar.
Maker
Cheers! Hopefully, you get a chance to try our card, it would be great to hear your feedback on how we compare. We offer international transfers, and withdrawals at the interbank spot rate in 90 currencies - for free!
Hey, I will order and try it out. Will love to compare these two.
I've been using Revolut for few months already - great for traveling. I hope they will make contactless (+ Apple Pay compatible) cards soon.

Thanks! Contactless cards are on the horizon - hopefully by the New Year - we are also currently investigating Apple Pay.
I ordered my card 4 months ago but never received it. Referred several friends and also never got the 5 pounds referral gift except once. Tried loading my card and was not able to as their customer service said there are so many countries that you can't load your card from. Great idea. Love it but execution is not that well. But must admit the UI/UX is great!

Thanks for being an early adopter! I'm sorry you experienced an unreliable service - we've come a long way in 4 months. If you'd like a new card sent out, let me know, and I can arrange for this. Just drop an email to , or use the in-app chat.
Signed up for this recently before a trip to Germany. I changed my pin from the default a week or so before I left, went to pay for something in Germany and the pin was declined. Messaged support and after a *very* slow reply, was told that everything was fine. Went to pay again, tried the pin a couple more times and the card was blocked. Incredibly unreliable service and I don't plan on using the card again. I like the idea but it seems that actual usability of the card is hit and miss so I wouldn't recommend taking it as abroad as your only method of payment (which luckily I didn't).
Yes that happened To me , i was stuck with no cash for more then 5 hours

Hi PH community, I'm Veronique Head of Corporate Partnerships at Revolut! Here's a chance to get £££ as our thank you for spreading the word about the global money Revolut(ion) Hit "Send" in the app, then "Invite a friend" to send your unique code to friends via social media, text or email. We'll reward you £5 for each of your first 5 friends who download and top up their Revolut account via your code! That's potentially £25!
I've had trouble making payments and doing ATM withdrawals in Asia. Their customer support is nightmarish. Try them out, but don't rely on their product to have your back when you need it most..

Hello Tomas, please reach out if you're experiencing any current issues. We look to resolve issues as soon as possible, and are currently growing our customer service team to accommodate. Many thanks!
Thanks, Lewis. I've emailed your support team again today and am waiting to hear back.
Maker
I've personally looked into this with our customer service team, we're calling now to assist with your accounts.
+1 same thing happened to me. Customer service wasn't as proactive in solving the issue till I reached out.
If you read French, (on twitter) wrote a good review. I'm tempted to give Revolut a try...
Used the card in Sri Lanka and Maldives as a test. Worked perfectly and used the same exchange rate that Google offered. No fees.
I absolutely love this! Being an individual who often needs to go between Pounds and Euros, this is perfect. Thank you!
