Revolut card Ultra plan

[Traveler999]

Just noticed on my NZ Revolut where I have the metal plan that there is now the option to upgrade to Ultra plan

$79.99 NZD/month gives 1 rev point (=1 avio, qatar, aegean, avianca,TAP mile) per $NZD . much better transfer rate than Amex effectivly
full priority pass. no mention if it includes resturants
.49% crypto trade fee vs 1% with Metal
better insurance? have not looked yet

yes its close to $1,000 p.a but if you do a lot over over seas travel/exps it super competitive since there is near zero foreign transaction costs and miles earning is superior.

I presume there is the same offer for the Australian Revolt cards ?

I don't see it in my Aus revolut acct yet, but if I'm looking at paying $1k for a card with a neo bank, I'd probably prefer to spend the extra $500p/yr and get Amex Platinum even with the hit on transfer rate.

So there are four levels that earn RevPoints in Australia:

Standard - free - 1 RevPoint per 16 AUD
Plus - 5.99 AUD/month - 1 RevPoint per 16 AUD
Premium - 11.99 AUD/month - 1 RevPoint per 8 AUD
Metal - 28.99 AUD/month - 1 RevPoint per 3 AUD

Sadly not. Just got on to the Metal help chat (bot) and got the usual AI nonsense in response to my query. No idea when it's coming here

....... but if I'm looking at paying $1k for a card with a neo bank, I'd probably prefer to spend the extra $500p/yr and get Amex Platinum even with the hit on transfer rate.

1:1 earn/redemption with no forex fees is better than the Amex Plat which I have. Also have the US Plat. which has no forex fees but an earn rate of about 0.7:1 with the current exchange rate.. Would probably ditch the Australian card, keep the US one and get Ultra saving A$500 per year
