How do I switch my existing bank account to Revolut?
You can switch your account with another bank or payment service provider (PSP) in France to Revolut for no fee.
Just request live support by typing 'Live agent' in the chat or send an email to [email protected], and our team will be happy to help.
We won't charge you or the receiving provider to use our account switching service. This is in keeping with our regulatory obligations.
Using the account switching service
The following services are covered:
- Register with the account switching service to begin. We'll move your Direct Debits, recurring transfers, and any positive balance to Revolut
- We'll also send a list of your standing orders. Use our guide to set them up
- You can ask to close your old account. We'll create the closure notice for you
Our account switching service doesn't cover:
- Some incoming funds (e.g. social services payments)
- Direct Debits from certain companies. You must contact them directly to provide your new account details
- Recurring payments linked to your old debit card
- Credit facilities, including personal loans and credit cards
Once you register via the account switching form and answer all the questions, we'll tell your payment partners the switch is happening. We'll email you to let you know when the switch is complete.
When to switch accounts
You'll be asked to choose a date on which the switching process will begin (the switching date).
For the best results, choose a switch date when your old account has the least activity. Avoid dates close to your payday or when regular payments like Direct Debits are due. This will help ensure a smooth switch and prevent any disruption to your payments.
To allow us time to process your request, choose a switch date at least 6 business days away. The switch will be completed within 12 working days, but this period only begins after we have received all your complete information. We will notify you if there are any problems or delays.
