What is Revolut Reader and how do I use it?
We no longer sell Revolut Readers. Alternatively, make sales in person with Revolut Terminals, our all-in-one devices, or through Tap to Pay on iPhone.
Connect the reader
You can still use already purchased Revolut Readers. To connect them to the Revolut app:
- Go to 'Tools'
- Select 'Hardware'
- Select 'Reader'
- Select 'Pair'
- For detailed instructions, read our guide
Revolut Reader pairs with the Revolut app via Bluetooth on your mobile device, which must have Wi-Fi or mobile network connectivity for transactions. Customers who did not use or purchase a Revolut Reader before its discontinuation are no longer able to connect one to their account.
Pro account payment timelines
- For your first payout, there’s a 7-day waiting period. This is necessary for risk mitigation and cannot be waived during this period
- 24-hour settlement: your settlement time will go from 7 days to 24 hours after you successfully process one in-person sale or accept a certain number of online payments without any chargebacks
Once you unlock 24-hour settlement, all future payments will arrive in your account within 24 hours. Settlement timeframes may vary based on your transaction history and whether your account requires any additional checks.
