The banking industry is conservative, and traditional banks have been slow to adopt digital services for young people. In this article we will look at a British financial technology company that offers banking services – Revolut. We’ll also learn how to create an account on this platform without a phone number.

Features of the Banking Company.
The startup describes itself as a digital alternative to banking. Initially, users were offered a prepaid card and an app that allowed travelers to use different currencies at no extra cost. Since then, the range of products and services has been expanded, with Revolut’s new features including:
– cryptocurrency exchange,
– insurance services for travelers,
– expense analytics,
– overseas transfers,
– interest accrual on balances,
– account sharing with those who don’t use Revolut.
The founders say they started their project because they were frustrated with how long it was taking traditional banks to implement digital services for younger customers who prefer to conduct all transactions through a smartphone.

Before using the service, make sure it is available in the user’s country. Registration is done in 5 steps:
1. download the app from the App Store or Google Play Store,
