Worldwide without any fees*
It’s one of the few biggest institutions in the world for large individual investors. It’s like advertising you have money
Why not to use Revolut? I keep there around $50 only and top it up if I need more. Exchange rate is great, works everywhere and very easy to open an account (for certain countries).
Int’l card payment cost: 0% to ~1% markup (depending on currency)
Do you know how they take the 1%?
Yes, on weekend they charge 1%. I remember there was also an additional 1% charge for rare currencies. For free accounts there was also a monthly limit on exchange volume. Also various plans have different ATM free withdraval limits. If there is an additional charge it is just added to the amount charged in the base currency.
Do you know if revolut sends cards from US to overseas? Preferably with DHL or something fast?
Can you open acc with 25k deposit as non US citizen remotely? If so How??
Get something like Wise for travel, you can top up the balance, it’s a visa card not a debit card, it auto-exchanges market rates if you use a foreign currency.
This isn’t rocket science. You can lock and unlock your debit card.
- Lock card when not needed.
- Go to ATM.
- Unlock card.
- Withdraw money.
- Lock card.
Rinse, repeat.
