Questions about each
Nexo
What are the Nexo card fees?+
Nexo lists a monthly card fee of €0 and an annual card fee of €0. Its published perks also state that there are no monthly, annual or inactivity card fees.
What is the currency conversion fee?+
Foreign exchange fees are 0.2% to 2.5%. The exact amount can therefore vary, so overseas purchases and ATM withdrawals may cost more than transactions made in the card's base currency.
Qonto_AT
What does the Qonto card cost to keep?+
The card itself has an annual fee of €0, on a no annual fee card model. The account around it costs a monthly fee of €9. Cash machine use comes with a free allowance of €0, so plan around that if staff withdraw often.
What rate applies if I use the overdraft?+
The overdraft is priced at an APR of 17.5%, which is the number to weigh if you expect to dip below your balance. That is above what most cards on this list charge, at 15.5%, so short dips cost less than carrying a balance for months.
