Revolut

Revolut is a British digital bank with 70 million customers across 160 countries. Since March 2026 it holds a full banking license in the UK. It combines account, investments, crypto, and cards inside one app.

The free Standard plan gives you an account, debit card, and international transfers with monthly limits. Plus runs around 3 euros per month, Premium around 8 euros, Metal around 14 euros, and Ultra around 45 euros. The higher the plan, the larger the monthly conversion limits, plus travel insurance, baggage insurance, airport lounge passes, and service priority.

Currency conversion happens at the market rate within a monthly limit, and beyond that there is a small fee. Support for 25 currencies, holding possible in 30 or more.

Investments are decent but not strong. Trading in US stocks, ETFs, and crypto (Bitcoin, Ethereum, and dozens more). Fees are reasonable but not the cheapest on the market.

For anyone who travels abroad a lot, Revolut saves hundreds of shekels per year on conversion and overseas fees. For anyone needing advanced banking features in Israel, there is no replacement for a local bank. In Israel it works as a secondary currency solution, not as a primary bank replacement.

The app is smooth, notifications are instant, and freezing a card takes one tap.
