Hi, i just discover this post.

I'm using Revolut and i wrote on my blog my personal experience.

To buy/sell crypto is very easy, even if you can't transfer your crypto out of the Revolut wallet.

What's very interesting is the possibility to trade stock shares. Here i'm maintaining an updated list.

I have a Revolut card and I use it for currency (fiat) exchange. I do not use it to buy cryptocurrencies, because there is no option to send them to the outside. As far as I know, cryptocurrencies can only be bought and stored and later sold. Nothing more.
It is possible that there are any updates - I will gladly find out.

Tried to find my previous comments on Revolut, can't, so a summary:

1. Was a loyal customer, for some time. Actually moved from TransferWise to Revolut. Never had issues with crypto-related payments, cards were very slow when delivered outside of UK, but fee-wise, when transferring bank to bank, extremely good and quite fast depending on bank.
2. Several months back, they started blocking accounts of friends, this mainly to do with nationality and secondary sanctioning, although Revolut themselves often denied these were the reasons. They would freeze accounts and funds and then became deliberately difficult about it. I personally never got in trouble but didn't want to take the chance anymore so have stopped using their card.
3. Still only use them for transfers to some countries, but never their cards. And never their crypto tracking (as pointed out, you're buying and selling a tracker, not actual Bitcoin).

There are better products now. I'd look out for Bitwala's rejuvenated offerings, but don't take my word for it. Check out this useful list for a starter's guide (more like a EU bank account but it's for facilitation of crypto): https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/list-free-eu-bank-accounts-that-you-can-be-opened-directly-online-1756494

This is the most updated list specific to Bitcoin debit cards: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1DRbTeMCzb4UeXI0YlAzBxMc2u2i0cN_17Ql6eMngK6E/edit#gid=0

I have Revolut card, but I never tried to buy crypto on Revolut. I don't see any reasons to do that. Actually you can't buy real crypto on Revolut. It's impossible to withdraw crypto from Revolut, you also can't deposit it to your account. You only can buy/sell crypto inside Revolut. Crypto that you buy on Revolut don't even exist on blockchain.
But their card is good choice if you want to purchase crypto on other exchanges.

I used revolut before and use their cards for Bing ads and AdWords before but I never heard that they support crypto.

Anyway, it seems that this is already been discussed here before look at this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/review-about-revolut-better-than-coinbase-and-other-exchanges-4871890

This is good for those who are looking for a prepaid card that accepts crypto and the good thing is that you can withdraw your PayPal directly to your revolut account and then you can exchange it into crypto.

Just wondering if anyone is using Revolut to purchase and use their crypto?

> https://www.revolut.com/exchange-cryptocurrency

My understanding is Revolut issue cards and if they allow crypto exchanges
it means account holders can exchange crypto for FIAT and buy goods.
While its not an ideal scenario it is an option if funds are needed urgently.
