“With hundreds of thousands of customers now actively exchanging Cryptocurrencies in the app, the popular view was that we needed to add more digital currencies in addition to Bitcoin, Litecoin and Ether.”
There is possiblity to send cryptocurrency from one revolut users to others. Most important fact – direct use of Revolut card with cryptocurrencies. It works simply, they deduct the fiat value from cryptocurrency using the real exchange rate the moment Revolut card was used using cryptocurrency as payment.
“If you have not topped up your Revolut account in fiat currency but have Cryptocurrency in your wallet, you can pay for your morning coffee or metro ticket in Cryptocurrency!”
They charge 1.5% of fee only for transactions, fees will be already summed up in price, so no need to worry about hidden surprises.
They say Revolut is now fastest and easiest way to buy mentioned coins
The big con, there is no possibility to transfer cryptocurrencies directly to Revolut from external sources because of strict regulations about “e-money”.
Let’s hope sooner or later this won’t be an issue in the future.
