Nikolay Storonsky, Chief Executive Officer, commented: “Revolut reaching 20 million customers and 250 million transactions a month is another milestone we’re proud of. When we started Revolut seven years ago, we wanted to give people more control over their financial well-being through the use of our technology, offering a service that addresses all their financial needs in one place. We are still a young business, but our growth over the last few years shows the increasing demand for our products all over the world. As important as this milestone is, we are still at the start of our journey and intend to keep pushing the boundaries of financial innovation to build the world’s first global financial super-app. This is just the beginning…”
Helped by collaborations with influencers over the past year such as Liam Payne, Anthony Joshua, and Simon Wilson, Revolut’s total social media following has grown to over 1.4 million, and it has most recently launched a TikTok account.
