Hi guys,
Read somewhere on Twitter that revolut was coming to Australia Q1 2018. Any idea when that Tweet was done?
Anyone have an update on that or can give a more specific date now that we are in 2018?
Thank you

Last update I saw about this was indeed on Twitter: âQ1 this yearâ (05/01/2018) - Targeting Q1 2018 for the US as well, letâs hope they can do both at the same time
Andreas said itâs coming âsoonâ, and confirmed there will be local accounts (BSB) (08/01/2018)
So, in theory thatâs before March 31st
Thank you @quentinb
Would you have any information about Hong Kong current accounts? I read somewhere that it was planned for Q1 also but I canât find the information anymore.
Yep, they have the same type of pre-registration (âearly accessâ) for HK as they do for the US and Australia.
Also:
Revolut plans to expand to the U.S., Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia and New Zealand in early 2018. (source)
Looks like theyâre planning to open in these 5 markets in Q1. That would be great!
It probably takes time to find partners in each market to open local bank accounts for all their customers.
Great ! Thanks a lot !!
Thanks Quentinb for the response.
Anyone from Revolut able to weigh in on more specific dates? In the app it says, âmake it happen sooner, invite more friendsâ. Does that mean there is a set number we are waiting on?
Hey @Richardm1985
Probably not at all. I guess they just want some good Word of Mouth. I doubt thereâs a high correlation between the amount of people invited and the release date
I second that. I mean itâs not just a setting to change in their app to allow the US or not. There is work behind it (legal, find partners, etc). So they are getting ready for it and do need the word of mouth to spread the good news.
Also, as I understand it, they want to - ultimately - be opened to as many people as possible (= The World)
The end of Q1 2018 is here, and it seems that Revolut is not going to have an Australian service up and running by en of Q1 as announced.
When can we expect this?
Hi there. Weâre hoping to launch there in the next few months. As soon as we have more info weâll make sure everyone knows.
itâs almost July now, this thread aged well
Hi JessicaZ,
Any update now? Half way through the year. Just give us an indication/estimation on how close you are to launching?
Whatâs the hold up anyway?
Thank you
I tired to sign up for âearly accessâ in Australia, and it all looks good until it asks me for my mobile number to download the App, then it errors out with a âOops! Something went wrong: Sorry, Revolut is currently only available to residents of the European Economic Area. Weâre expanding globally very soon!â
Not sure if something is broken, or is the âEarly Accessâ not actually ready? If the latter, itâs not a great user experience. Whatâs the point in registering now if there is a hard stop in the sign up process.
