Skrill
Skrill is a Paysafe e-wallet built for paying online merchants and trading platforms, with several currency balances and an optional prepaid Mastercard. Fees are its weak spot next to neobanks: a 4.49% FX fee, 2.99% to send money to other users and 1.75% (min EUR 3.50) to withdraw to a bank, plus EUR 5 a month after six months of inactivity. Use it where a merchant asks for Skrill, not as your multi-currency account.
