Wise Personal is one of the most competitive money exchange and transfer services. It also offers a couple of features available with bank such us debit and virtual cards. If you have to exchange larger amounts, the fees are more attractive than most competitors. The customer service support is decent but could be improved. We would recommend Wise for current spending, especially abroad while keeping a relatively reasonable balances, but since it doesn’t have a banking license we do not view it as safe as traditional banks. Finally, you can park your money with BlackRock Money Market and Equity Funds with typical EU/UK protection.

Revolut Personal is a competitive money exchange and transfer service that is now moving into online banking, offering features such us virtual cards. Depending on the time and amounts of exchanged currencies the fees may be attractive or not. The customer service support could be improved. We would recommend Revolut for current spending, especially abroad while keeping a relatively reasonable balances, but since it doesn’t have a banking licence from a Tier 1 Regulator we do not view it as a safe institution similar to traditional banks. We also recommend independent brokers for investments instead of Revolut’s investment products.
