  • You’ll get charged a cash advance for the transfer and daily interest as well until it’s paid off.
  • Are you sure !!! ? I have topped my Revolut with my Halifax, Post office and Capital One credit cards on a few occasions, never been charged - no fee, no interest.

    So far I've topped up my Revolut card with my Creation, Nationwide and Santander Zero cards and not been charged any fees or interest.

    Anyone know any others that are fee free or ones that will charge?

    It will all come down to how your CC provider treats the transaction - if it gets treated as cash transaction then there will be fees, but every lender is different so it may vary between providers. You could contact them to see what they say, or just wait a few days until it clears to see if cash fees are charged on your £10 top up.

    hi Sad_Dad, you sure Creation Credit Card doesn't charge?
    I heard others using ASDA credit card (issue by Creation) gets charge, but I haven't tested with my Creation Everyday Credit card yet.

    Thanks for informing!

    Given that it's been 3 weeks you would hope that's been done already...
  • Best thing to do is check with the credit card issuer if transactions with merchants under the MCC 6012 attract fees and interest. Some issuers will charge, others won't.
