Arthur's summary · Revolut

Money & banking in three points

  1. Exchange rates and fees. How close the exchange rate is to the mid-market rate, and which fees apply to transfers and card use.
  2. Licence and deposit protection. Whether the provider holds a full banking licence with deposit guarantee, or is an e-money institution that safeguards funds.
  3. Opening from abroad. Whether you can open the account remotely, and which proof of address and residence is accepted.
