Revolut prepares to launch operations in India #
Revolut is gearing up to enter the Indian market, marking a significant milestone in the UK-based fintech’s global expansion strategy. As reported by Finextra, the company has been assembling a local leadership team and working toward regulatory approval from the Reserve Bank of India to introduce its suite of digital financial services. The move positions Revolut to compete in one of the world’s fastest-growing fintech ecosystems
The initial rollout is expected to focus on international remittances and cross-border payments, with plans to gradually expand into broader retail and SME offerings. Revolut already employs several hundred professionals in India across technology, compliance, and operations—underscoring its intent to establish a lasting regional base rather than a limited market presence
India’s fintech market, powered by innovations like UPI and a strong digital infrastructure, offers vast potential but also a challenging regulatory landscape. Revolut’s strategy reportedly includes partnerships with local banks and payment providers to meet compliance standards and strengthen consumer trust as it prepares to go live.
