What you are paying for

For people who spend or move money across currencies and travel often, that is a fair price. Best in class currency exchange and multi-currency accounts. Very high App Store rating from over a million UK ratings, an unusually large sample.

A five year total always looks large written down. Judge it against what the tool actually changes, not against the headline on its own.

Plans and tiers

The same five years on Delphina

Delphina's Free plan is £0 for as long as you want it, no card. Wealth Builder is £9.99 a month, so five years is £599.40 if you stay on it the whole time, billed in pounds with no FX fee.

Revolut is a bank and a very capable one for travel and currency, and comparing it with a planning tool is only half fair. Delphina does not hold your money or exchange it. What it does is model UK pensions, ISAs and tax over decades, which Revolut has never set out to do. Most people who use Delphina keep their Revolut account.

More on Revolut

Revolut: common questions

It is worth it for people who spend or move money across currencies and travel often. It is a poor buy for anyone who needs revolut's own pricing pages block automated access, so plan prices are harder to verify than they should be, because that is not what it is built to do.

A five year total is worth measuring against something

The point of paying for any of this is a better outcome. Delphina shows you what your pensions and ISAs are actually on course to do, so you can judge whether Revolut is earning its fee.

Free plan: create an account, no card, no expiry. Takes about two minutes.
