Revolut's new light-up Dogecoin card promises "no exchange fees" — so we put £25 through it and tracked every penny. What we found was a £16.16 Amazon purchase actually cost £18.05, and a tax headache behind every tap.

In this episode:

• What the Doge card actually is
• The test: buying DOGE, spending it at Amazon, and where £2.54 went in 35 minutes
• The hidden markup: how a "fee-free" card carried a ~2.9% round-trip spread
• The tax trap: why every tap is a potential tax
• Follow the money: interchange, dormant crypto balances, and why this card makes perfect sense for Revolut
• Serious bank or meme machine? A glowing Shiba Inu, just months after the UK banking licence
• Who actually buys this — and our verdicts

Nothing in this episode is financial or tax advice. If you're considering spending crypto, speak to a professional about the capital gains implications.
