Getting my Christmas bonus soon and am going on a lads’ trip to the Euros in June. I’m going to put a grand aside as my spending money (everything else is paid for). What’s the best, safest thing I can do with that money that will turn it into a little bit more? I have Revolut; their vaults pay alright-ish interest (I think) - is that a good idea? (I also technically have accounts with Starling and Monzo but they haven’t been used in years so may be dead - I can check if advice suggests I should)
The fact that I’ll need the money as Euros is relevant I think - I don’t really want to use a credit card to withdraw cash abroad and Germany is really slow on the uptake with contactless etc.
For further context I have a little bit of credit card debt but nothing horrific (it’s being paid off at a good rate), and a middling but improving credit rating, so if I need to apply for something new I can do so but it maybe wouldn’t be a guarantee.
Thanks for any advice and apologies if I’m not asking in the right place or the right way.
