Pros and cons

Moniepoint

Pros

  • Combines payments acceptance, banking and operational tools in one platform.
  • Serves more than 20,000,000 business and individual accounts.
  • Provides expense cards plus accounting and book keeping support for firms.

Cons

  • Business centred design leaves less room for standalone personal banking.
  • African market focus limits relevance for people banking elsewhere.

Revolut UK

Pros

  • Access is instant in the app, with fee-free withdrawals and no withdrawal limits.
  • Support runs on chat, phone and help centre, so a phone call or email is possible when the app is not enough.
  • Regulated in the UK and in Europe: the account is run by Revolut Payments UAB, founded in 2015 and headquartered in Lithuania.

Cons

  • The rate type is variable, so the 4% can move and nothing is fixed for a set period.
  • The savings sit with a savings deposit partner rather than the brand itself, and the account licence type is e money.
  • On headline rate the account ranks at 142 of 473 brands compared, so the return is competitive rather than exceptional.

Who each suits

Moniepoint

Who it suits

  • Business owners managing payments, banking and operations together
  • Individuals handling everyday transactions through business linked accounts

Who should look elsewhere

  • People seeking personal only banking outside African markets

Revolut UK

Who it suits

  • Savers who want instant app access and no charge for holding the balance, rather than a card and credit deal such as AXI Card Tarjeta y Credito at 21.59%.
  • Travelers, freelancers and teens, the audience named in travelers, freelancer and teen, who want 30 currencies and a conversion fee that runs 0% to 1%.
  • Anyone starting out with a wallet, since PayPal Colombia is the listed alternative at 3.3% and this balance pays 4% with iban details.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Savers shopping on the headline rate alone: the listed alternative Plazo ES shows 24.19% and AXI Card Tarjeta y Credito shows 21.59%, both far above the 4% paid here.
  • People who need the return fixed for a set period, since the rate type is variable and the balance is easy-access by design.
  • Customers who want the deposits held by the brand itself: the account licence type is e money and the savings sit with a savings deposit partner, a different structure from the listed wallet alternative PayPal Colombia at 3.3%.
