Yes, you can use your Revolut card at shops, restaurants, and hotels in Senegal that accept Visa and Mastercard.
All you have to do is add money to your account in any of our 36 supported currencies and pay with your card as usual. We'll automatically exchange to XOF at the Revolut exchange rate. You can also make ATM cash withdrawals in CFA Francs with your multi-currency card. You won't pay any Revolut ATM fees if you're within your plan's monthly fair usage limits:

• Standard: up to €200 (or 5 withdrawals, whichever comes first)
• Plus: up to €200
• Premium: up to €400
• Metal: up to €800
• Ultra: up to €2,000

These limits are set on a rolling monthly basis. This means they'll reset every month from the date you opened your account or the date you changed your plan. You can check your remaining monthly allowance in-app.

When you use your card in Senegal, you'll often be asked whether you want to pay in Euros. This is called dynamic currency conversion (DCC). While it may make it easier to understand exactly how much you're paying in your home currency, you'll often get a poor exchange rate and pay additional fees.
Our go-to tip? When you're in Senegal, always choose to pay in the official Senegalese currency: the CFA franc BCEAO.
When you spend with your Revolut debit card, we'll take care of the currency exchange, so you'll get competitive rates and fees.

Here's how you can get your Revolut Travel Money Card:

1. Download our app for iOS or Android, and sign up for an account in just a few minutes
2. Tap the card icon on your home screen, go to + Add new, and choose whether you want a physical card, a virtual card, or both
3. Add money to your account in any of 36 supported currencies
4. Start spending online and in shops with your virtual card straight away. We'll handle the currency conversion for you
5. Once your physical card arrives, you can start making ATM withdrawals as well

Currency exchange rates rise and fall constantly, so it's wise to keep an eye out for current market trends.
