Why did we choose these fees?

To get things rolling, let's go over some lingo related to broker fees. What you need to keep an eye on are trading fees and non-trading fees.

  • Trading fees occur when you trade. These can be commissions, spreads, financing rates, and conversion fees. Revolut only has fixed trade costs.
  • Non-trading fees include charges not directly related to trading, like withdrawal fees, inactivity fees, or account management-related fees, like top-up fees.

All fees are universal - meaning, you’ll be charged the same fees abroad.
