Comparing the two payments apps to help you pick the right one for North Macedonia.
| Revolut | Wise | |
|---|---|---|
| Description | Converts to Macedonian denar at the interbank rate, a currency almost no bank sells abroad. Tap to pay works in Skopje and Ohrid supermarkets, malls and most sit-down restaurants. | Mid-market conversion to denars with fees shown before you pay. Handy for the regular cash withdrawals that bazaars, taxis, monasteries and village guesthouses still require across North Macedonia. |
| Essential? | No | No |
| Pro Tip | The denar sits near 61.5 to the euro. Withdraw cash from bank ATMs with Revolut instead of exchanging at the airport, and always decline the conversion the machine offers. | Spend your leftover denars before leaving. It is a closed currency that exchange desks abroad rarely touch, and even neighboring countries offer miserable rates for it. |
