If you are in a country other than Singapore, we will only provide you the Money Transfer Services under these Terms where you ask us to provide the Money Transfer Services on your own exclusive initiative. Where we provide you the Money Transfer Services on this basis, they are provided by Revolut Technologies Singapore Pte. Ltd in Singapore and not in your country of residence.


If you are a resident of Singapore, these Terms will not apply to you. The General Terms will apply to our provision of services to residents of Singapore.

3. Commencement, term and your Revolut Account


These Terms commence on the day that Revolut confirms to you via the Revolut App that your Revolut Account has been opened and shall continue until terminated in accordance with clause 21 (Amendments to these Terms) and/or clause 22 (Termination).


Your Revolut Account allows you to perform Revolut transactions and access other services. Our service availability may differ based on your country/region. Your Revolut Account is not a bank or a payment account and does not store any form of monetary value (electronic or otherwise).


You can use your Revolut Account for any of the following services:

  • Send money to other Revolut users (we call these “Instant Transfers”);
  • Send money to a bank account (we call these “Bank Transfers”);
  • Send money to a card (we call these “Card Transfers”);

  • View information about and manage your Revolut Account through your Revolut App.

Instant Transfers, Bank Transfers, Card Transfers and receiving money from other Revolut users are together referred to as "Revolut Transactions".


We may ask you to provide any information and/or documents that we may reasonably require to complete your Revolut Transactions.


Revolut may refuse to enter into a Revolut Transaction with you at any time and for any reason.


Revolut provides virtual receipts for Revolut Transactions. The Revolut Transaction details are also available on the Revolut App. Revolut will not and is under no obligation to provide you with a physical receipt or other written confirmation in connection with any Revolut Transaction.

Can I open a Revolut Account?

You must be 18 or over to open a Revolut Account and you will need to be a resident in any of the supported countries. The list of supported countries can be found here. You can get further information on the supported countries on the country specific web-pages.


When you ask us to open a Revolut Account, we or someone acting for us will ask for information about you and where the money you will remit through your account comes from. We do this for a number of reasons, including to meet our legal and regulatory requirements. Our Privacy Policy explains more about how we use your information for these and other purposes. When we have the information we need, we will open your Revolut Account.

You can’t:

  • open more than one Revolut Account;
  • use the Revolut Account for business purposes;
  • open a Revolut Account on someone else’s behalf; or
  • open a new Revolut Account if we've previously closed a Revolut Account held by you.

You warrant that you are an individual acting solely on your own behalf and are acting for a purpose other than a trade, business or profession.

4. How can I send and receive money?

You can use your Revolut Account to send money and receive money.


On your Revolut App, you will need to register the details of your External Account(s) and/or Stored Card(s).


“External Account” means a designated personal deposit account (current or savings account) held by you with a bank and which you have registered for use on the Revolut App. This will be used 1) as your funding source to send money for the purposes of Bank Transfers and the payment of any fees and/or; 2) to receive money for you from another Revolut user.


"Stored Card" means the designated credit card, debit card, or other payment card held by you and which you have registered for use on the Revolut App. This will be used 1) as your funding source to send money for the purposes of Instant Transfers, Bank Transfers, Card Transfers and the payment of any fees and/or; 2) to receive money for you from another Revolut user.


Any Stored Card(s) and/or External Account(s) that you add to your Revolut App must be in your own name. Revolut reserves the right to refuse any Stored Cards and External Accounts. This includes stolen cards and cards from certain countries that we may be prohibited from using for Revolut Transactions. If you are not able to add a certain Stored Card and/or External Account to your Revolut App, you will need to add another Stored Card and/or External Account which can be used for the Revolut Transactions. You can update your Stored Card and External Account details at any time within the Revolut App.


You have the option to add different Stored Card and External Account details to your Revolut App for the purposes of sending money and receiving money.

5. The Revolut App


The Revolut App is our portal where you can, among other things:

  • perform Instant Transfers, Bank Transfers and Card Transfers;
  • receive money from other Revolut users;
  • view your Revolut Transaction History (which means the list of Revolut Transactions you have entered into);and
  • register and update the details of your External Account(s) and your Stored Card(s).


We may stop your access to the Revolut App on reasonable grounds relating to:

We shall not be liable for any losses arising out of your failure to maintain up to date information.

7. Instant Transfer


You can send money to other Revolut accounts. We call these sorts of transactions Instant Transfers. You can make an Instant Transfer to any Revolut user globally by choosing them as a recipient from the contacts list in the Revolut App and following the prompts. The recipient Revolut user will be notified and receive the transfer immediately. If you make an Instant Transfer, the money you are sending will be debited from your selected Stored Card.


Where applicable, you will need to enter the Counterparty’s details (the ‘unique identifier’) on the Revolut App in order to request an Instant Transfer to that Counterparty. It is your responsibility to make sure that the Counterparty’s unique identifier is entered correctly. Any error may result in the Instant Transfer being unsuccessful, delayed or the Instant Transfer being sent to the wrong recipient. We shall not be liable for any losses you incur from entering an incorrect unique identifier.


The “Counterparty” means the person you wish to send money to.

Please check the following information on the Revolut App, prior to confirming your request to enter into the Instant Transfer:

  • the Counterparty’s details;
  • the amount and currency of the money you wish to send to the Counterparty; and

If funds you have sent by way of Instant Transfer have not been received by the Counterparty and are returned, we will return the funds to the funding source in the currency you used to make the transfer. Due to the difference in price for purchasing and selling currencies and/or fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the amount of money you receive back in these circumstances may be more or less than the amount you originally sent. Revolut is not liable for any losses you incur in this respect.

8. Bank Transfers


You can send money to a Counterparty’s Bank Account from your selected Stored Card or your External Account. We call this a Revolut Bank Transfer. The money you send by Revolut Bank Transfer will be debited from your selected Stored Card or your External Account.

Due to the difference in price for purchasing and selling currencies and/or fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the amount of money you receive back in these circumstances may be more or less than the amount you originally sent. Revolut is not liable for any losses you incur in this respect.

9. Card Transfers


You can send money to a Counterparty’s Card Account from your selected Stored Card. We call this a Card Transfer. The money you send by Card Transfer will be debited from your Stored Card.

Due to the difference in price for purchasing and selling currencies and/or fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the amount of money you receive back in these circumstances may be more or less than the amount you originally sent. Revolut is not liable for any losses you incur in this respect.

10. Transfers to Mobile Wallets

You are able to use the Revolut app to send outbound payments to Mobile Wallet recipients. As this payment is not sent through a traditional payment scheme, no bank account details are required for you to complete this transfer. Your recipient will be identified by the phone number or email linked to their Mobile Wallet account (phone number or email).

To send a payment using your Mobile Wallets, you’ll need to provide a wallet identifier and information about your payment.

These transfers are normally sent instantly and are expected to arrive in your recipient’s wallet within 30 minutes, but can sometimes take up to a day. As this is an international transfer, our regular international payment fees will apply (please see our Fees pages here to access the applicable fees). No additional fees are applicable to these payments.


11. Receiving money from other Revolut users


You can receive money from other Revolut users.

In order to receive money you must have registered the details of your Mobile Wallet, External Account or Stored Card into which the money will be credited on the Revolut App.


You will need to provide the details of your selected Mobile Wallet, External Account or Stored Card into which you wish to receive money to the Revolut user who is sending the money to you. It is your responsibility to make sure that the details of your selected Mobile Wallet, External Account or Stored Card that you provide to the sender is correct. Any error in information may result in the transfer being unsuccessful, delayed or the transfer being sent to the wrong recipient.

Payments to your Stored Card will be sent instantly and should arrive within 30 minutes.


When the transaction is completed, you will be able to review the completed remittance transaction in your Revolut Transaction History.

12. Currency conversion and exchange rates


If the currency of the Counterparty account is different to the currency of your External Account or Stored Card that you are using to make the Instant Transfer, Revolut Bank Transfer or Card Transfer, then we shall convert the money using our exchange rates into the currency of the Counterparty account prior to sending the money to the Counterparty account.


You can only send Instant Transfers, Bank Transfers or Card Transfers in certain currencies. Usually this will be the currency which is available in the Counterparty’s country or region, but could involve others. The available currencies are also subject to change from time to time without us being required to provide you with notice.


Any exchange fees we may apply to the exchange rate when you send a Revolut Bank Transfer or Card Transfer involving a currency conversion, are set out in our Fees Page. If you send an Instant Transfer involving a currency conversion, we will not apply an exchange fee. In all cases, you will be able to check the exchange rate for the currency conversion and any exchange fee (if one applies) in the Revolut App prior to confirming the transaction. We may earn revenue from the exchange rate applied to a currency conversion and by instructing us to process an Instant Transfer, Revolut Bank Transfer or Card Transfer, you agree to the application of the exchange rate calculated for that transaction. Revolut will not be responsible for any losses you incur as a result of the currency conversion.


The money that you receive (as the recipient in a transaction) will be converted into the currency of your selected External Account or Stored Card. We shall perform a currency conversion on behalf of the Revolut user sending the money to you and the money will be converted into the currency of your selected External Account or Stored Card. Revolut is not liable for any losses you incur in this respect.

13. Fees


Any fees that we may charge for the Money Transfer Services are set out in our Fees Page.


The fees we charge for any Bank Transfers or Card Transfers will be clearly shown on the Revolut App prior to your confirming the transaction. We will not charge any fees for Instant Transfers. We shall deduct any relevant fees from the External Account or Stored Card (as applicable) being used to fund the Revolut Bank Transfer or Card Transfer.


We will provide you with notice of any changes to the fees in accordance with these Terms. It is your responsibility to stay informed and review these changes once we have provided you notice of a change to our fees.


We reserve the right to suspend your access to the Money Transfer Services if we are not paid any monies that you owe us on time.

14. Security


We would like to draw your attention to paragraph 3 of the e-Payments User Protection Guidelines issued by the MAS (“User Protection Guidelines”). You have an important role to play to ensure that your Revolut Account is protected from unauthorised access and used by practising good security hygiene.


You must take all reasonable steps to:

  • ensure that your mobile and your mobile PIN are kept safe and secure; and
  • ensure that access to the Revolut App is kept safe and secure.


Your “mobile” means your smartphone or other electronic device on which you have downloaded the Revolut App.


Your “mobile PIN” means your personal identification number which is entered onto the Revolut App to gain access to the Revolut App.


The requirement to take these steps includes you:

  • closing the Revolut App every time you are not using the Revolut App or have finished using it;
  • keeping the mobile you use to gain access to the Revolut App safe and secure and locked with a secure password or other security mechanism;

You will be liable for:

  • all losses incurred in respect of an Instant Transfer, Revolut Bank Transfer or Card Transfer made by us which was not authorised by you, if you have acted fraudulently, or have intentionally or with gross negligence failed to comply with the obligations set out in section 13 (Security) or you have not notified us on time in accordance with section 18; and

You will remain liable for any obligations related to your Revolut Account even after it is closed.

22. Amendments to these Terms

These Terms may be amended unilaterally by us, by providing you with one months’ notice. These changes will be deemed to have been accepted by you where you do not, before the proposed date of the entry into force of the changes, notify us to the contrary.

You may terminate these terms at any time by providing us with one month’s notice, such notice to be provided using the chat function on the Revolut App


Without prejudice to any rights that have accrued under these Terms, or any party’s other rights or remedies, either party may at any time terminate these Terms with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party if:

  • the other party commits a material breach of any term of these Terms and (if such breach is remediable) fails to remedy that breach within a period of 30 days after being notified in writing to do so;
  • the other party repeatedly breaches any of the terms of these Terms in such a manner as to reasonably justify the opinion that its conduct is inconsistent with it having the intention or ability to give effect to the terms of these Terms;
  • the other party is subject to a bankruptcy, insolvency, winding up or other similar event; and/or
  • the result of laws, payment scheme rules, card scheme rules, regulatory authority rules or guidance or any change in or any introduction thereof (or change in the interpretation or application thereof) means that it is unlawful or contrary to any such law, rules, order or regulations for either of the parties to perform or give effect to any of its obligations hereunder and such obligation cannot be readily severed from these Terms.


Without prejudice to any rights that have accrued under these Terms or any of the party’s rights or remedies, we may at any time terminate these Terms with immediate effect by giving written notice to you if:

  • we are unable to verify your information in the manner set out in these Terms;
  • you die;
  • we have reason to believe that your use of the Money Transfer Services damages, corrupts, degrades, destroys and/or otherwise adversely affects the Money Transfer Services, or any other software, firmware, hardware, data, systems or networks accessed or used by you;
  • there is a significant fluctuation (either positive or negative) in the aggregate number of Revolut Transactions you enter into;
  • you have acted or omitted to act in any way which we reasonably determine to diminish Revolut's business operations and/or reputation and/or goodwill and/or which we reasonably determine or suspect to give rise to any offence or any increased risk or liability to us; and/or
  • we are unable to provide the Money Transfer Services to you through the inability of any third party to provide us with any goods and/or service that we require to provide the Money Transfer Services to you.


If you have breached the terms of these Terms (including a breach of your obligation to pay us any amount owing), we are entitled to terminate these Terms, and/or we may:

  • suspend your use of the Money Transfer Services (in whole or in part) in which case we will not treat any order for an Instant Transfer, Revolut Bank Transfer or Card Transfer that you may wish to make as being received by us;
  • report any Revolut Transaction or any other relevant information about you and your use of the Money Transfer Services to the relevant regulatory authority, law enforcement agency and/or government department; and/or
  • if appropriate, seek damages from you.


Termination of these Terms requires the closing of your Revolut Account in accordance with clause 20.


Any terms which by their nature should survive, will survive the termination of these Terms.
