Availability in the Philippines

Do you

I don’t work for Revolut, but happy to have a go at answering some of your questions.

Do you plan to add PHP (Philippine Peso) to the currencies in the near future?

My understanding is that Revolut’s ultimate goal is to offer currency accounts for every single currency on the planet (Subject to financial regulation/global sanctions.).

If we look at the currencies available for SEA, the main ones have already been launched (SGD, HKD, THB.).

Wouldn’t be surprised to see MYR and PHP coming soon.

My wife would like to open an revolut account too. She has already downloaded the app but during the registration it says “Revolut is not yet available in the Philippines” when she is using her phone with her new Philippines phone number. Is there a workaround for that? We still have our active german sim cards here and could swap it for registration.

Could potentially work (given how it’s active, and can receive SMS messages for logging in(?).), but I’m not too sure on that front.

Worth a try.

Recently we moved to the Philippines and plan to stay here long term. We still keep an address in Germany though.

The use case for Revolut tends to be for the account holder to be resident in a country that Revolut has launched in (at the current moment, the UK and the EU, and in coming months, the US.).

I’m not sure what Revolut’s policies are in relation to long-term/permanent relocations.

Assumed I lost my physical credit card, do you send the replacement card to addresses in the Philippines?
