Revolutionizing Everyday Banking: Croatia’s Emergence as a Top Market for Revolut in Southeast Europe

Zagreb, Croatia has emerged as one of the top 10 cities in Southeast Europe with over 400,000 users of Revolut. This was shared by Andrius Bičeika, a member of the Revolut board, during the Money Motion conference in Zagreb. He highlighted the growth in the number of transactions, with 40 million transactions last year, two-thirds of which occurred in Croatia. This indicates that people in Croatia are using Revolut not just for travel outside the eurozone, but also for daily transactions.

He mentioned introducing new services to achieve this goal and promised that they will eventually get there.

Bičeika also mentioned unique cases like Ireland, where half of the population uses Revolut.
