- And more
However the focus of this article will be the Revolut Card and its most beneficial use case.
How Does The Revolut Card Work?
The Revolut app on your phone can be used for virtual payments, and you also get a physical card. The benefit of Revolut is that you can switch between multiple currencies within your account…
…this means that you will no longer have to line up for currency exchanges at the airport whilst travelling!
You can simply transfer your GBP for Thai Baht or Japanese Yen etc within your easy-to-use Revolut account, and pay just like you would with a debit card.
