Revolut Launches Fee-Free USD Transfers for UK Customers

Revolut, the global financial super app with more than 500,000 business customers worldwide, has launched new fee-free USD transfers to the UK.

Revolut has moved closer to borderless accounts by offering US bank details to its UK business customers, enabling them to accept USD transfers from US-based customers, payment apps and online marketplaces with no fees. As increasing numbers of the UK B2B customers do business with the US, this saves senders both time and money.

The new feature enables Revolut's Business customers to receive USD payments via the Automated Clearing House (ACH) Network for payments up to $1,000,000. Users will still be able to use IBAN details to receive USD payments via SWIFT.

James Gibson, Director of Revolut Business, commented:"We're delighted to bring no fee USD transfers to the UK. With so many UK-based companies doing business in the US, we're excited to move one step closer to borderless accounts. Allowing our clients to receive payments from a foreign country without asking the sender to use SWIFT saves the sender both time and money."

As Fazzaco reported earlier, Revolut is using payment initiation services (PIS) technology from open banking player Tink to let users across Europe move money into their account.
