British FinTech Revolut is celebrating its seventh year as a company by hitting a milestone of 20 million customers, 250 million monthly transactions, and a global workforce topping 5,000 employees. 

“When we started Revolut seven years ago, we wanted to give people more control over their financial well-being through the use of our technology, offering a service that addresses all their financial needs in one place,” Co-Founder and CEO Nikolay Storonsky said in a press release emailed to PYMNTS on Thursday (July 14).

“We are still a young business, but our growth over the last few years shows the increasing demand for our products all over the world,” he said, adding that the company is still at the beginning of its journey and will keep “pushing the boundaries of financial innovation” as it strives to develop a worldwide superapp.

Headquartered in London and founded in 2015 by Storonsky and CTO Vlad Yatsenko, Revolut offers money transfers, peer-to-peer payments, savings, investments and trading.
