Revolut formally opened its global headquarters at Canary Wharf in London on 23 September 2025. The opening ceremony was accompanied by the announcement that Revolut has reached 65 million customers globally, including 12 million in the United Kingdom, where it has built its largest single market.
The company committed to investing $13 billion — equivalent to approximately £10 billion — over the next five years, a programme it said would create 10,000 jobs across its global operations.
ONE HUNDRED MILLION CUSTOMERS BY MID-2027
Revolut set out an explicit growth target at the headquarters launch: 100 million retail customers by mid-2027. The company said it also intends to enter more than 30 new markets by 2030, extending the geographic reach of its retail and business banking services beyond its current footprint.
The company has moved beyond foreign exchange and prepaid cards to offer current accounts, stock trading, cryptocurrency services, insurance products, and business banking across multiple jurisdictions.
Revolut said the investment would be spread across markets including the UK (£3 billion), France (its Western European hub), the US, Latin America, Asia-Pacific, Africa and the Middle East.
UK BANKING LICENCE
The opening came after Revolut secured a UK banking licence with restrictions in July 2024; at the time of the opening it was still in the mobilisation phase and had yet to launch as a fully fledged UK bank.
