If you have USD on the card it will take those first (if your purchase was in USD). If you don;t have any or don't have enough it will then dip in to your "home" currency

Great! Thanks for the info 😁

Ive been using Revolut for about 18 months now, for both pleasure (holidays) and business across Europe and the USA.

Its absolutely perfect. Highly advise it, and its a great way to track spending with its automatic categorization of your spending.

We have used the card in the USA and Europe for the last couple of years. I really like the card because I can control it via the app, it's really easy to turn the card on and off

Really easy to use, but with a small caveat. Though my DH and FiL used their everyday with no issue, mine stopped working 4 days in for no obvious reason, so I’d advise a back-up card to transfer to just in case. It was absolutely brilliant for splitting the cost for bills etc. However, I have to say Starling was just as good.

I used Revolut for the first time last year and thought it was great. The only downside which wasn’t Revolut’s fault was when I tried to load it while over there from my Clydesdale account. Clydesdale blocked the transaction then I had to call them to unlock it. Nationwide did the same but at least with them it was a text message. So just to be aware your bank may block it as fraud protection.

First time using it for me and we are here now. It’s been great so far. Interesting about the issue topping up while here because I intend to do that.

Is there a limit on what you can spend each day or is it just a case of you can spend what you have in your account? I understand there is a limit on what you can withdraw from cash machines.
