Frequently asked questions
What is the monthly fee for Santander Debito LikeU?+
The monthly fee is MXN 9.90, set for the Super account. That sits above the site median of €0, and the highest monthly fee in the debit ranking is €83.23. The fee is the main thing to weigh, because the account is a debit product and nothing is borrowed.
How much cashback does the account pay?+
Cashback runs at 3% on spending under the Pro account. Cashback is also the most common reward type in this comparison, at 49.5% of the brands here, so the account pays the reward most readers meet. The more you put through the card, the more comes back.
Is it a debit or a credit card?+
It is a debit card, so purchases come out of the money sitting in your account rather than a credit line. Debit cards make up 74.3% of the cards in this comparison, so this is the standard setup for everyday spending and there is nothing to repay later.
How does the fee rank against other debit cards?+
On monthly fee it sits at position 336 out of 419 brands ranked, so the charge is well down the cheaper end. The median monthly fee across the site is €0, which is why the gap looks wide.
How does the account score on cost?+
Cost is the weak part of the rating, with a cost score of 2 and an overall score of 2, while the account still pays 3% in cashback. The monthly fee of MXN 9.90 is what weighs on the cost side.
Who does Santander Debito LikeU suit?+
It suits people who put most of their spending through the card and want 3% back in cashback. It suits you less if the card sits unused for stretches, because the MXN 9.90 fee still runs. A monthly fee of £0 on Wise is the comparison to make first.
