In this episode of Banking Without Borders we break down Revolut finally securing its full UK banking licence after a process that began back in 2021.This is a major milestone for Revolut in the UK, because it means the company can now operate as a fully licensed bank rather than relying primarily on its e-money permissions for most customers.But what actually changes?We explain why the process took so long, what the mobilisation phase meant in practice, and what this now means for customers in terms of protection, deposits and Revolut’s long-term position in UK banking.In this episode we cover:• Revolut’s UK banking licence timeline • Why approval took so long • What the mobilisation phase actually was • What changes now for UK customers • FSCS protection and deposits • Why this matters for Revolut’s future in the UKWe explain what this licence really means, what it does not mean, and why this is one of the most important moments yet in Revolut’s UK story.Connect with us (via LinkedIn) Jan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jan-watermann/ Jonny: http://www.linkedin.com/in/jonny-pease Got a question or topic you want us to cover?
