Now that GPMC is officially launched, I was looking at the FX charges for that card. 2% markup from Mastercard FX rate. Less than most of your usual CC like Amex, Visa or MC.

Revolut (for weekdays) and Youtrip (for weekends) still eem the way to go when spending overseas then. Just top up Revolut/Youtrip using GPMC, which you top up using your local CC to get your cashbacks. What say you guys?

I don't think Youtrip allow you to use another prepaid card to top up Youtrip. It is stated in their website.

I just tried to top up my revolut card using citi smrt card via applepay. It says transaction declined by bank. Had to use ocbc in the end. Anyone else face this issue?

Also tried using GpMc to top up revolut, it says my gpmc is in usd and they will need to convert to sgd to top up?! That's weird. I didn't click continue coz I didn't know what charges they will be, if any. Anyone else face this issue as well?

Aside from going through Grab MC, which cards give rebates on top-ups of Revolut card?

How much $$ u have at stake? Must be a significant amount for u to be nervous about. Else I’ll just say spend it or prepay your recurring bills

Some asked me. Well Police report made against revolut singapore is just the first step you have to do to get your money back.

revolut not secure? why need to make it a police case? even if they dont allow you transfer back to bank account you can use it to buy ntuc vouchers right

or you account is suspended and there is no way for you to spend the card and utilize the balance?

Neither can I, mate. Spoke to a friend who works for Grab. He says security risk issue. Even he himself can't you GPMC to top up Revolut.
