London-based Revolut launched in 2014 under the premise that people should not be charged for spending and transferring their own money in a different currency. This week, the startup closed a $4.8 million round of funding.
The round was led by Balderton Capital. Index Ventures, Point Nine Capital, Seedcamp, and Venrex Investment Management also contributed.
Combined with the startup’s previous investments, this round brings its total funding to $7.6 million.
In January Revolut launched version 2.0 of its personal money cloud. Its redesigned app is focused on offering transparency while maintaining an intuitive user experience.
The company’s CEO & founder Nikolay Storonsky, and CTO Vlad Yatsenko debuted Revolut at FinovateEurope 2015 in London.
