Trying Revolut as I read from Seedly claiming that their rates are marginally better and Revolut allows the card to be cancelled whereas YouTrip can't.

Can use alipay there.... Problem we have to solve is how to top up your alipay account so that you can use it.

Some blogger successfully managed to open a prc local bank account with his passport and a local address just to try out the top up function. This is usually out of reach for most of us unless you have a relative staying in China and can "borrow" the address.

The top up of cash is mainly for cash withdrawal overseas right? More keen on their credit cards for spending with better exchange rates then all the other banks.

The other thread has quite an extensive discussion bah.

I just used it on my aussie trip. Was only rejected at one location. I must have charged it at like 10-15 places at least.
There's also another Revolut card nowadays

It's a debit card. U top up with funds from another CC, then it will minus off lor.

When you top up with your CC into the Revolut card then might as well pay with your CC.
