Get paid back in 3 taps: Choose your friend, enter an amount and request the money! It’s way easier than playing debt collector.


Millions of Revolut customers have been using our app to send each other money for food, bills and holiday expenses. When your friend picks up the bill, you can pay them back instantly via the Revolut App.

But what about when you pick up the bill or lend someone money? Sometimes people forget to pay you back - not anymore. 😎

Revolut allows you to request money from your friends in the app, in just a few taps. And if they forget, you can send them a friendly reminder with an extra tap. This feature is perfect for splitting anything from daily expenses, nights out, hotel rooms or just getting paid back.
