Revolut Activates Polygon Rails for USDC, USDT and POL Transfers in UK and EEA

The rollout positions Revolut to expand regulated crypto services in Europe after securing a MiCA license in Cyprus.

Overview

  • Revolut customers can now send and receive USDC, USDT and POL over Polygon, with availability in the UK and non‑EU EEA markets.
  • Since a quiet go‑live in December 2024, Polygon‑based flows through Revolut have surpassed $690 million, according to company disclosures.
  • Transfers are described as near‑instant with minimal fees, and some eligible transactions may have gas costs covered.
  • The integration includes POL trading and in‑app staking, and Polygon access via Revolut’s fiat on‑ramp.
  • Both firms call this the first phase of a multi‑stage partnership, placing Revolut alongside institutions like Stripe, Flutterwave, DeCard and Reliance Jio that use Polygon for money movement.
