My experience

I’d go with Revolut for 1–2 months of mostly cash use while you’re in Taiwan, especially for frequent ATM withdrawals and travel-style spending — but with one condition: you stay within the free withdrawal limits. � Wise +1 Here’s why: Better short-term ATM usage: With a Revolut card you usually get a higher free ATM withdrawal allowance before fees compared to Wise (e.g., ~£200–£400+ free per month depending on plan) and then only ~2% after that. Wise only gives a couple of fee-free withdrawals per month and then a fee on every one after. � Wise +1 No big monthly fee required: Even the free Revolut Standard plan gives you enough free cash access for most weekly needs if you plan it right. � cdn.revolut.com Convenience: You can use Revolut at ATMs across Taiwan, search for surcharge-free machines in the app, and pay with the card where cash isn’t accepted. � Revolut That said, Wise has more transparent mid-market exchange rates and generally lower overall fees if you were transferring or holding large sums longer term — but for frequent ATM withdrawals and day-to-day travel cash, Revolut tends to work out cheaper and more flexible in practice. � Wise Quick tip: If you end up going over Revolut’s free cash withdrawal limit some month, the ~2% fee isn’t huge — and you can always top up both cards (Revolut + Wise) so you have backups.
