A card uniquely theirs

Your kid’s personality can shine through with card customisation. They can use their debit card to make contactless payments in-store or withdraw from global ATMs. And you can freeze or unfreeze their card for extra security.

Minimum age requirements and customisation fees may apply.

How to open a kids account

  1. Download the app

    Have your kid download the <18 app and create an account. If they’re 12 or under, you’ll need to create their account from your Revolut app.

  2. Approve

    If they’re 13 or over, we’ll send you a notification to let you know it’s time to approve their account from your Revolut app.

  3. Get started

    Order their Revolut <18 card, customise it together (fees may apply), and add to Apple or Google Pay (if they’re old enough). An easy start to their money journey.

Teens aged 13+ can create an account with parent or guardian approval. Payments to and from other customers on Revolut <18 are only available to teens aged 13+.

Some products and features are only available for kids above a certain age. See availability in-app or within our FAQs.

    Label
  • Yes, you can open a Revolut <18 account in a few taps directly through the main Revolut app.

  • It's free for one account, but you'll need to upgrade if you want to include multiple kids, each with their own account. Other fees like personalisation of debit cards may apply. See full information in the T&Cs.

  • Yes, they can use their Revolut <18 account abroad.

    The Revolut <18 card works just like your Revolut card for making purchases online or in person, and for withdrawing money from ATMs, even when overseas.

    If your kid or teen makes a purchase in a currency different from the base currency of your Revolut account, the transaction will be converted in the same way as it would be on your own account. The value of foreign exchange allowed before a high-frequency fee applies is less than your own account. See all fee info in the T&Cs.
