Revolut Activates Polygon Stablecoin Transfers for UK and Non‑EU EEA Users

The rollout marks phase one of a broader tie‑up following more than $690 million in Polygon transactions since December.

Overview

  • Customers can now send and receive USDC, USDT and POL on Polygon within the Revolut app, with POL also available for in‑app trading and staking.
  • Availability covers the UK and non‑EU EEA, reflecting EU rules affecting certain stablecoins such as USDT, according to Revolut.
  • Transfers are designed to settle in seconds with minimal costs, with gas covered on eligible in‑app transactions.
  • Revolut says Polygon‑based flows have already topped $690 million since December 2024, leveraging a user base of more than 65 million.
  • Both companies describe this as the first phase of a multi‑phase partnership, and Revolut’s recent MiCA authorization in Cyprus could position it for additional products, with any stablecoin plans reported as exploratory rather than confirmed.
