Using Revolut for international spending

Gone are the days of taking a large amount of cash on holiday to exchange for the local currency or getting stung by bank card fees for payments abroad. We have discovered Revolut and haven’t looked back.

Revolut is a bank. Not a physical bank with a high street presence, but a digital-only bank with a card for spending. With low fees and good exchange rates (pretty much the market rate) it is ideal for your overseas travel, including – of course – Lanzarote!

Once set up, you can easily top up using bank transfer or a card. Once the money is in your Revolut account, you can hold it in different currencies. For example, when the rate is favourable you can move your pounds to euros. You can hold money in multiple currencies at once.

One great advantage for groups is the ease of sending money to each other or the split bill feature through just one card.
