Anyone try using Revolut to convert SGD to CNY and then use CNY in Revolut card to pay in Taobao? Does it work at all?

You can check out in CNY using the desktop version of Taobao. Revolut charged me FX rates with no additional fees.

Yes, you can do so. In detail, you need to ensure that you check out in their local currency instead of choosing to convert to SGD.
