Revolut Teams Up with Trust to Enable Decentralized Crypto Purchases

In another giant leap for crypto, London-based fintech company Revolut and Binance-owned Trust Wallet have joined forces to enable fast and cost-effective crypto purchases across the EU. Through the new integration of the two finance giants, Trust users can use RevolutPay or their bank cards to buy crypto directly into their wallet, sometimes even with zero fees.

What makes this particular fintech-to-crypto exchange even more exciting is that users will never have to rely on a centralized intermediary to hold their funds. Or even an exchange, for that matter. The funds are transferred directly from their account to their self-custodial crypto wallet, giving them total control over their assets, both digital and financial.

The moment the payment is completed, the money lands in Trust, a wallet used by 220 million people worldwide and one of our top 6 beginner-friendly wallets in 2025.

Instant Transactions with No Fees

In the initial phase, the Revolut-Trust partnership will support three cryptocurrencies and two stablecoins. These include Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Tether (USDT), and USD Coin (USDC). The plan is to expand the number of assets in the near future, now that Revolut has managed to secure the MiCA license via Cyprus.

What’s more, the company has confirmed that in some scenarios, users can benefit from zero fees. It’s not yet clear what exactly those scenarios are, but it is sure to make Revolut-to-Trust purchases more convenient than many exchange-based onramps.

The pair also hopes to reduce the friction that has always existed in onboarding new users to the crypto train. Not having fees, delays, or the need to juggle multiple apps is a good start.

Revolut Leading the Crypto Charge

This crypto launch comes as Revolut ramps up its push into the digital asset space. In fact, after that $75 billion valuation and the leadership in MiCA compliance, one could almost wrap up the year and give Revolut the award for Europe’s most animated adopter in 2025.

Last October, Revolut secured MiCA authorization from the Cyprus regulator, which effectively allows it to legally launch all kinds of crypto initiatives in the Union. One of its proposed goals is to launch Crypto 2.0, a digital platform that would support over 280 tokens and enable 1:1 conversions between USD and USDT with no spread. It will even feature staking products with 22% annual yields, though we’re yet to learn more about that.

The company has all the momentum in the world to lead the crypto charge in the EU. Last year alone, Revolut recorded $4 bn in revenue ($1,4 bn in pre-tax profit), a staggering 70% year-on-year improvement. It also expanded its footprint to include banking services in Mexico and Colombia. On the crypto front, Revolut famously teamed up with Polygon Labs to support remittances in USDC, USDT, and POL on the Polygon network.

MiCA Paves the Path

None of this would have been possible without MiCA, short for Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation and the EU’s sweeping regulatory framework designed to bring clarity, credibility, and guardrails to the industry.

MiCA effectively sets the rulebook for everything from stablecoins to crypto service providers, charting a clear path to launch, scale, and innovate across all 27 member states.

Needless to say, the framework has shaken the EEA crypto ecosystem to the core, with the CoinLaw reports suggesting that more than 65% of Europe’s crypto platforms are expected to comply with MiCA by the end of 2025. With a single license unlocking the entire EU market, MiCA has become the passport that lets Europe’s most ambitious fintechs finally go all-in on crypto. And Revolut has it.
