Is there somehow a way to receive with Transferwise and send with Revolut ? I guess not. Then how would it work having both ? Receive in Transferwise a bunch of payments, and once in a while send to your bank. Then once in a while send to revolut, and send smaller payments from there ?

Yes but the transfers between accounts can be fiddly. The options if I remember right are:

- All currencies: Top-up Revolut with the TransferWise debit card - this is free and IIRC works for all the currencies TransferWise supports receiving. However there are limits on both the TransferWise side (how much you can spend with the card) and the Revolut side (how much they permit you to top-up with a debit card). The latter limit increases as you use the card.

- EUR and GBP: Straight local bank transfer - costs ~$1 but only works for these two currencies.

- CHF: Local bank transfer as above - costs ~$1 but requires correctly entering the reference number.

- USD: SWIFT - costs ~$5 and takes around a week.

- AUD, NZD, PLN: Unsupported. Revolut only has a UK-based IBAN and TransferWise requires local account details for these currencies.
