Is it safe to add money with a linked account?
When you add money to your Revolut account from your linked external bank account, you're using a secure system that protects your financial information.
We don't have any access to your external bank details or login credentials, apart from the payment you approve to send to Revolut. Here's why you can trust the process:
Regulatory authorisation
Third-party open banking providers are authorised by regulatory bodies, such as the Bank of Lithuania or equivalent authorities. This makes sure that providers meet strict security and compliance standards before accessing your account information.
Continuous monitoring
We're always keeping an eye on any third-party access to your account. If any concerns arise, like suspected fraud or unauthorised access, we take immediate action to safeguard your account. This may include temporarily restricting access to your account until any issues are resolved.
Data protection
We make every effort to keep your financial transactions and personal information secure and private. The personal details you share with Revolut are always encrypted and protected by high levels of security. All the details that we receive from your linked account are securely stored and encrypted.
External Vendors
All external vendors used to facilitate the connection from your Revolut app to your linked accounts are regulated by the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority) and act as a secure messenger between Revolut and your other account providers.
Usage of Information
All your bank information is for you to use. We'll use the data you share to keep you informed about your money while using the Revolut app.
