Revolut Gears Up for Spring Bank Holidays and Summer Travel, Removes Extra Weekend Currency Exchange Fees for Premium, Metal and Ultra Plans

Revolut, the global financial technology company, has today removed additional weekend currency exchange fees for customers on its Premium, Metal and Ultra plans. 

Already benefitting from no extra currency exchange fees on weekdays, these customers will now be able to travel across the globe without additional currency exchange fees, seven days a week. This change comes in anticipation of the summer travel season, with May bank holidays and summer travel on the horizon. 

Tara Massoudi, Head of Premium Products, said: “Hidden, confusing and costly currency exchange fees often trip people up when travelling abroad. That’s not the way Revolut does things, we’ve always aimed for a clear and transparent approach, that lets you always pay like a local. We’re making travel even better for our Premium, Metal and Ultra customers who can say goodbye to all additional exchange fees. This is the latest in a long string of paid plan benefits for Revolut customers who love to travel, including global data with eSIMs, airport lounge access and RevPoints that can be redeemed on air miles and travel booking discounts (depending on plan T&Cs)”

Revolut is also reducing additional weekend currency exchange fees on its Plus plan to 0.5% and maintaining its 1% fee for Standard plan users, ensuring a competitive offer to its customers. 

Revolut’s extensive lifestyle and travel offering includes everything modern travellers need to make money matters easy and cost-effective when abroad. Revolut customers can book over 2M+ hotels, homes and guesthouses and 300K+ experiences in a matter of seconds through their Revolut app  (Stays and Experiences T&Cs apply). They can also benefit from no withdrawal fees charged by Revolut within plan limits for ATM withdrawals, stay connected in 100+ countries with eSIM (eSIM T&Cs apply) and enjoy unlimited lounge access, depending on plan type (Airport Lounges T&Cs apply). 

Moreover, all Revolut customers can earn RevPoints on daily spending throughout the year and use them to book travel for less – either as discounts on Stays or Experiences or redeeming for airline miles. (Standard customers need to turn on spare change to earn points. T&Cs apply)
