Revolut Adds Google Pay in Ten European Markets

​Revolut, a British financial technology company headquartered in London, announced that it has launched Google Pay for customers in ten new European markets, including Austria, Bulgaria, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Netherlands, Portugal and Romania.

People around the world are looking for simple, safe and helpful ways to pay both online and in stores, especially during the pandemic. Google Pay enables various digital payments, including online, in-app, and in-store to meet the need of making contactless payments.

Revolut customers can access Google Pay's services on Android devices and can add their existing cards on the app for payments. They can add their Revolut Mastercard or Visa card into their phone's digital wallet with a single tap and start spending instantly, even before the physical card arrives in the post.

“Our 13 million global customers are fast moving away from cash in the majority of the markets we operate in, and this has accelerated since the start of the year, so launching Google Pay in these 10 new markets is a very positive step forward in enabling our customers to safely use their money in the way that they want to,” James Carpenter, Revolut's Product Owner for card payments said.

Revolut customers will be able to use Google Pay to pay online and contactless in stores. Google Pay doesn't share customers' actual card number with vendors in shops or online, so their information stays secure.
