It’s powered to run transactions all day and has smart features to keep up with the demands of a growing business. With payment speeds under 5 seconds, customers can accept, settle, and store funds all in one place, their Revolut Business account.

Maria Garcia Marti, Product Owner Acquiring, commented: ”When designing new products, our team always has customer needs in mind: a fast and easy to use solution that will not slow business down, easy access to funds, and receiving payments faster than the industry standard of 2-3 business days. Plus, the security and long battery-life of a small pocket-sized device, capable of streamlining operations without the need to manage multiple accounts and systems. This is exactly what Revolut Reader is offering our business customers: really tap into business growth.”
