I save 10-12% over using a normal current account card abroad

How? Just fees or better budgeting?
There's no way my fees were in the 10% range but I still didn't appreciate the £40+ 'bonus' after forgetting about int. charges on my amex during TABR last year.

It's a mixture of immediate saving on fees but beyond that it's from making sure you allow Revolut to do the currency conversion rather than the bank that owns the ATM or your own bank back home. Both of which will fuck you with shit rates. Same applies in restaurants etc.
