Global fintech leader Revolut opened its new global headquarters in London’s Canary Wharf on Tuesday, reinforcing its UK roots while announcing ambitious expansion plans.
The company revealed it has surpassed 65 million customers worldwide, including 12 million in the UK. Revolut aims to reach 100 million customers by mid-2027 and expand into more than 30 new markets by 2030.
To fuel this growth, Revolut is committing $13 billion (£10 billion) in investments over the next five years, which are projected to create 10,000 jobs globally. The investment includes $4 billion (£3 billion) for the UK, $1.2 billion (£880 million) for its Western Europe hub in France, and $500 million (£375 million) for US operations.
"Our mission has always been to simplify money for our customers, and our vision to become the world’s first truly global bank is the ultimate expression of that," said Nik Storonsky, CEO and Co-founder of Revolut. "From our roots here in the UK, we’ve grown to serve over 65 million customers globally and today’s opening of our new Global HQ in London is the launchpad for our future."
Revolut’s growth strategy focuses on four key areas: international expansion, product innovation, business growth, and strategic partnerships.
The company plans to launch as a bank in Mexico early next year and is advancing plans to enter Colombia and Argentina. In Asia-Pacific, Revolut secured a payments license in April 2025 for India and established a new global tech hub in the Philippines. The fintech is also expanding into Africa, starting with South Africa, and recently received an in-principle payments license in the UAE.
In Europe, Revolut announced a new Western Europe headquarters in Paris in May, along with plans to submit a French banking license application. Branch launches in Portugal and Belgium are planned for 2025.
Revolut Business has reached $1 billion in annualized revenue and processes over 4 million monthly payments for merchants. The company also highlighted its global partnership with the future Audi F1 Team, which will include special edition co-branded cards.
