TAP and PAY the Easy Way Overseas!
Our President just returned from Ireland and used the REVOLUT app during her stay in Ireland and Northern Ireland. While we are not an affiliate in any way of REVOLUT, it is a well-known tool in Europe for making foreign currency payments and it is so easy and carefree to use! If you have clients going to Europe, this may be the best way for them to pay as they go, budget and avoid carrying a lot of cash and added fees!
Simply: 1. Download the app from the app store 2. Open a free account 3. Add the desired amount to the account (our President added what she needed on the go, and there was a small $.25 cent fee for this) 4. Use your phone to TAP and PAY throughout Europe (you can also get a free card for the account to use when your phone is not available)
If your funds are in USD, they will be exchanged at the current exchange rate. You can also exchange to the currency of your choice at any time with no fees. Using REVOLUT allows you to avoid carrying large amounts of cash while travelling, and also avoids international withdrawal fees at ATMs, as well as going to the bank or standing in long money exchange lines. You can instantly move more money from your accounts set up on Apple pay or other pay services on your phone without exchange fees. The app also allows you to monitor exchange rates and exchange money with improved rates. Additionally, if you do exchange money from USD to the Currency of the country you are visiting, but don’t spend it all, you can exchange it back!
This is an incredibly useful tool we just wanted to share, which may help your clients who are traveling abroad this year! For more tools to aid your trip visit our Travel Tools recommendations.
