Revolut has been selected by the FCA to test a GBP-denominated stablecoin in its regulatory sandbox and is filing for a US bank charter to offer stablecoin access alongside FDIC-insured accounts. The company processed $10.5 billion in stablecoin payments in 2025 (156% YoY growth) and is moving from reselling stablecoins to issuing its own.
This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.
◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
Revolut is moving from selling stablecoins to issuing one, backed by regulatory blessing in the UK and a US banking license in progress. If you build payment rails, settlement infrastructure, or custody for retail crypto, Revolut is now your competitor—and it has $6 billion in annual revenue and 68 million customers to prove it works.
