Frequently asked

What is the Revolut monthly FX cap?

On the free plan, around 1,000 EUR (or local equivalent) of FX at the real rate per month. Above that, a small markup applies. Plans like Premium and Metal raise or remove the cap depending on tier.

Why does Revolut add a weekend markup?

FX markets close on weekends so the platform hedges currency moves. The markup is small but real; for larger weekend conversions, wait until Monday or use Wise.

How do ATM limits work abroad?

There is a monthly free withdrawal allowance, then a small percentage fee. ATM operators may also charge their own fee. Most nomads use card payments where possible and ATM withdrawals sparingly.

How does the spending breakdown actually change behaviour?

Seeing per-category totals every week makes you realise the small habits adding up (delivery, taxis, weekend trips). Most users cut 10 to 20 percent of discretionary spend within two months without feeling restricted.

Is Revolut safe to use as your only travel card?

Carry at least two cards always — one Revolut, one different network. Cards get blocked, lost, or eaten by ATMs. Two cards from different issuers is the rule for serious travellers.
