The changes come as the company moves to set up an Irish branch of its European business, Revolut UAB, which all customers will now be migrated to. The move has ...

Holding an Irish IBAN will make it easier to use Revolut as a primary account where you can get your salary paid directly into your account, make payments via direct debit and pay bills more easily. An IBAN is used to transfer payment into a bank account. While the move will bring numerous benefits to Irish customers, a Revolut account is not perfect, says Mr Cassidy, noting that there is no overdraft and it is not suitable for those with a preference for cash. An international bank account number, or IBAN, is an international system which identifies bank accounts across countries. Some also had difficulty getting paid into their accounts." Anyone who sends money into your bank account, whether it be an employer, a friend or family member can use your unique IBAN to do so.

Major change coming to Revolut for two million Irish customers and ... (Irish Mirror)

The move will add extra pressure on mainstream Irish banks, as customers will now be able to have their employer pay their wages directly into their Revolut ...

Banks in Ireland will feel the pressure as Revolut has close to two million Irish customers registered on its books. While the move may impact mainstream banks within Ireland, most users are expected to continue availing of a Revolut account as well as staying with an Irish bank. The switch to Irish IBANS will allow people in the country to carry out daily banking through the app in a much easier fashion, as some companies do not permit transactions to be made with a foreign IBAN. The move will add extra pressure on mainstream Irish banks, as customers will now be able to have their employer pay their wages directly into their Revolut account. Global banking app Revolut is planning to issue Irish IBANs to two million customers in the state in major shake-up to the sector here. Users of the app in Ireland are currently supplied with Lithuanian IBANS, due to the IBAN being issued by Revolut Payment UAB, which is a Lithuanian e-money institution.

Revolut 'absolutely' the viable alternative to the big banks (Newstalk)

The latest move by online banking app Revolut to give Irish users Irish IBANs is 'going to put the cat among the pigeons' with other banks here.

"That is hopefully now going to be a thing of the past." "It was a barrier to Revolut really becoming a big force in the Irish banking sector," he said.

Revolut Ibans could be the tipping point the banking sector fears most (The Irish Times)

The way fintech start-ups Revolut, N26, Bunq and others have crept up on the traditional banking sector is eerily similar to the manner in which technology ...

They have responded with a plan for a mobile-based payments system to be known as the Synch platform. That did not happen and few people punished the bank for its failings by switching to competitors. It is not every technology or every product that becomes a verb in its own right and manages to do so with the speed of Revolut. The company is said to have in the region of two million Irish customers. Ease of use is why Revolut has gained market share faster in this country than anywhere else in Europe with the incumbent banks’ lack of innovation and old-fashioned systems found wanting on many levels. It also has smart functions that allow parents to give children money in a secure fashion while giving them oversight as to how that money is spent.

Revolut to migrate Irish customers to an Irish IBAN (The Paypers)

Revolut announces that the accounts of two million of its customers in Ireland will be migrated to an Irish IBAN number in the coming months.

As the comments are written and submitted by visitors of the The Paypers website, they in no way represent the opinion of The Paypers.

The Lithuanian State Company Deposit and Investment Insurance guarantees deposit protection up to EUR 100,000. Irish IBANs for the clients will be used instead of the Lithuanian ones once the revisions have been made. It comes after the company's decision to launch Revolut Bank UAB, an Irish branch of its European business, and start moving customers there. Their accounts will be moved within two months' notice, and the IBAN transfers will happen in stages.
