Our verdict

How it compares on our data

FinecoBank sits mid-table on the measures readers weigh most. It ranks 28 of 104 on free ATM withdrawals, which is respectable for a bank card. Currency conversion is weaker at 117 of 237, and the monthly fee places it at 341 of 379. The account is built for holding and spending currencies rather than for buying crypto.

Fees

The account carries a monthly fee of €3.95. Spending in a currency other than the account currency converts at a rate fee of 1%. For comparison, Monzo Flex, Wise and Bitpanda all show a monthly fee of £0, £0 and €0 respectively, so FinecoBank costs more simply to keep open.

Frequently asked questions

What does FinecoBank charge each month?+

The account has a monthly fee of €3.95. That is a flat cost to hold the account open, and it applies on top of any spending charges. Many cards on our site show a monthly fee of £0 instead, so the FinecoBank charge is the main thing to weigh.

What does it cost to convert currency?+

Converting between currencies costs 1%. That matters most when you spend in a currency other than the one held in the account, which is where the multi-currency and travel features come in. On our data, FinecoBank ranks 117 of 237 on this measure.

How many ATM withdrawals are free?+

Free ATM withdrawals run to €99. Beyond that, cash machine charges can apply. FinecoBank ranks 28 of 104 among the brands we track on free withdrawals.

What kind of card is it?+

It is a debit card running on the visa network. Debit means spending draws directly on the money in the account rather than on a credit line, and the Visa network is widely accepted when travelling.

Is FinecoBank regulated?+

The bank is headquartered in Italy and is supervised in Italy by the Bank of Italy and Consob. It operates as FinecoBank S.p.A., so the money sits with a licensed Italian bank rather than a crypto platform.

How many currencies can I hold?+

The account supports 21 currencies, with multi-currency and travel features listed as the headline functions. That supports holding balances in several currencies and switching between them, though the conversion fee still applies when you change or spend in another currency.

Is FinecoBank a crypto exchange?+

No. FinecoBank is a bank account with a debit card, not a venue for buying crypto. The card and the account are funded and used as regular money, so anyone who wants to buy crypto alongside the card is better served by a platform such as Bitpanda.

Is there a free account at FinecoBank?+

No free tier appears in the account facts. The monthly fee of €3.95 is the price of keeping it open, and both Monzo Flex and Wise list a monthly fee of £0 and £0 on the same measures.
