Not all multi-currency accounts deliver on their promise of borderless banking. Jonny and Jan dig into what these accounts really do, and which ones are genuinely worth using in 2025.

They unpack the pros, cons, and hidden catches of Wise, Revolut, Trading 212, Bunq, HSBC Global Money, and NatWest, exploring who each account suits, what makes Wise the current gold standard, and when a simple travel card might actually be the smarter move.

  • The truth behind “mid-market” and “weekend markup” fees
  • Which accounts actually pay interest on foreign cash
