Step 1: Download the Revolut App
The first step is to download the Revolut app for your smartphone. It is available on both the App Store and Google Play Store. Once downloaded, sign up for an account using your phone number, email address, and password. Follow the on-screen prompts to verify your identity, and your account will be ready for use.
Step 2: Add Money to Your Revolut Account
Once you have signed up and verified your identity, the next step is to add money to your Revolut account. You can do this by linking your Revolut account to your existing bank account, debit card, or credit card. To link your existing bank account, select “Top up” from the main menu and then “Bank transfer.” Follow the prompts to add your bank account and complete the transfer. For debit and credit card payments, select “Top up” and then “Card.” Follow the prompts to enter your card details and complete the transaction.
Step 3: Use Revolut to Make Purchases
Once your Revolut account is funded, you can use it to make purchases or send money to other Revolut users. To make a purchase, simply use your Revolut card at any point of sale terminal that accepts Mastercard or Visa. You can make purchases in your local currency or any of the other 150 currencies supported by Revolut. When you make a purchase in a different currency, Revolut will automatically convert the transaction into your home currency at the interbank exchange rate, without any additional fees.
Step 4: Withdraw Cash from ATMs
When you need cash, you can withdraw money from any ATM that displays Mastercard or Visa logos. Revolut cards can be used to withdraw cash in your local currency or any of the supported currencies. Revolut also offers fee-free withdrawal of up to £200 (or equivalent in your local currency) per month. If you need to withdraw more than the monthly limit, Revolut charges a small fee of 2%, which is still much cheaper compared to other banking services.
