Accounts in other currency?

Roeshimi Mind telling us the name of multi currency account?🤪

Roeshimi

Mr. Underwood Revolut

Robert-Silver-Turtle-4265395482

Roeshimi Ok. I too kinda use revolut. But do you really have multicurrency? That would suggest that you have multiple accounts, kinda like what we want here.

Accounts in other currencies would be an awesome feature, especially for multinationals. But „buying when the USD is low“ and such stories, well... it may work or it may not. In retrospect it‘s easy to say but if you can honestly predict this then I‘d say don‘t waste your time here, get trading 🤑

Mr. Underwood I can hold USD, GBP and whatnot in Revolut. These may not be real accounts as they are in bunq with IBANs, but I don't need real accounts for my usage.
And if I really need a real USD or GBP account, I use Transferwise

Heda

Roeshimi Can you hold Russian ruble with revolut as well?

Robert-Silver-Turtle-4265395482

Ok thanks.

Roeshimi

Heda No that's currently not possible.

Roeshimi Too bad. I would love if bunq would offer a feature like this. At first I thought why should I bother about other currencies but if you travel a lot it can be quiet handy.

Koen Hi Koen,

Any chance that bunq will consider to support USD/GBP and some other “regular” currencies as incoming transfer on your Bunq account (with SWIFT)?

I have a multicurrency account at globcoin and I never faced any problems with them. US Dollars account is in their wallet.

Frank I use gbp in UK and euro with both bunq and permanent tsb in Ireland I use transferwise but it would be easier to have one account with bunq that done it all

I use TransferWise too to hold multiple currency balances and as TransferWise and bunq are integrated for some transactions a further integration seems the trick. If I could manage my transferwise account through bunq

Elixias

Yes, I want this, also it would expand the potential users to all SWIFT/SEPA countries…

+1 for USD accounts \o/

Michiel They are too bad to use them. Read about them.

Soweit ich verstanden habe ist es nicht möglich weil bunq keine finbank ist.

USD Account please 🙏🙏🙏

There are many other providers that carry plans to retain bank accounts in other currencies.

Why would people like to see this at bunq, rather than opening an account at a specialised provider? What would the advantages be, considered the extra effort bunq has to make in order to provide this service to a small customer base?

Can see the advantages for the customer base of having only one bank, but given the disadvantages is it worth the effort?
