Why more companies are turning to Revolut Business

Discover the many benefits of Revolut’s easy-to-use business platform.

STAYING AHEAD OF the curve is key to making sure your business grows. 

Adapting to new technology seamlessly, making buying and selling easier, and utilising your time will all help take your business to where you need to go. Being late to the party is never a good look, especially not in business. 

If you’re looking to get ahead, Revolut Business can help your business flourish. You might be familiar with Revolut for personal use, but their business offering is a quick and simple way to manage your business finances.

Suitable for businesses big and small, 5,000 Irish businesses joined up to Revolut Business in the past year. Signing up is extremely simple, whether you’re a solo operation or a growing business. You can even send a handy sign-up link to your team members, allowing them to join the company’s account hassle-free.

For Arthur Edson, head of finance at the UK sustainable deodorant group Wild, it’s the ease and centralisation of services on Revolut Business that are real selling points for him and his company.

“Having everything managed in one place is a game-changer. I can add spend controls to each of the cards, establishing tiers of spend, limits based on seniority and preventative measures against excesses,” Edson said.

I can see all spend as and when it comes through, meaning I always have a clear view of both company and individual spend. And if any cards are lost on work trips, I can turn them off immediately.

Let’s have a look at some of the goods and services which has seen Revolut grow its corporate customers by 50% in the last year.

Cards

Similar to its consumer platform, Revolut Business users can obtain cards that make day-to-day life easier. You can manage physical and virtual debit cards in-app, meaning you are always on top of outgoings. By signing up, you are eligible to receive three physical Revolut cards. Set limits on company spending and freeze and unfreeze cards as you desire through the app. Virtual cards allow you to keep your business safe from online fraud, with each team member eligible to receive 200 virtual cards for online purchases.

Expenses 

As a business owner, it’s guaranteed that you and your team will rack up expenses during the month. Instead of pulling your hair out looking for receipts, you can stay on top of your spending with notifications and expense approvals. Your team members receive instant reminders after each card transaction, and once a receipt is uploaded or forwarded via email, it’s attached to the right expense, meaning less work for you. 

Security

Safety is the utmost concern for businesses that operate online. Being vigilant against fraud schemes is critical to staying secure online, and Revolut Business can help provide peace of mind in this regard. Your money is safeguarded by licensed banks and your card details are kept safe, with extra yet hassle-free verification for all transactions. Revolut Business makes it easier to track and follow transactions, eliminating questions for your team.

International

One of Revolut Business’s most important benefits is that it opens your business to the world around you. Through the platform, both domestic and foreign markets are more accesible than ever. You can exchange currency in-app, sidestepping expensive exchange rate fees* with market-leading rates. You can also send and receive transactions from across the world, allowing you to enter markets from New York to New Delhi.

We launched our business Europe-wide in record time, saving huge amounts of time and money,” said Maxim Romain, founder of Dott, a micromobility company.
