U.K.-based fintech Revolut has attained a $75 billion valuation following a secondary share sale. Revolut’s valuation rose from $45 billion to $75 billion following months of engaging high-profile investors, Yahoo Finance reported.
Revolut’s secondary share sale commenced on September 1, 2025 and concluded on November 24, 2025. Leading investors, including Andreessen Horovitz, NVIDIA’s venture capital unit, NVentures, and Franklin Templeton participated in the transaction.
“The level of investor interest and our new valuation reflect the strength of our business model, which is delivering both rapid growth and strong profitability. We welcome onboard a series of world-class investors and look forward to working with them for the next stage in Revolut’s evolution,” Revolut Chief Financial Officer Victor Stinga said in a statement posted on the company’s website.
Revolut said its $75 billion valuation was driven by strong financial performance and business momentum. In 2024, its revenue rose 72% to $4 billion, with its net profit reaching $1 billion.
In 2025, the fintech company achieved major expansion milestones. These include acquisition of a banking incorporation license in Colombia, along with upcoming launches in India and Mexico.
The latest Revolut fundraising round cements the fintech firm’s position as the most valuable startup in Europe. The fintech company allowed early investors and employees to cash their stock in the latest share sale. This is the fifth time Revolut has offered its staff such a liquidity option to its staff.
“This milestone reflects the remarkable progress we have made in the last twelve months towards our vision of building the first truly global bank. I’d like to thank our team for their determination and energy, and for believing that it is possible to build a global financial and technology leader from Europe,” Revolut CEO and Co-founder Nik Storonsky said.
The company is developing plans to enter 30 new markets, including acquiring regulatory authorizations like banking incorporation licenses in each of those markets.
Revolut’s fintech valuation hit the $75 billion mark months after the U.K. digital bank considered dual listing in London and New York for its IPO. Currently, Revolut serves approximately 65 million customers, with 12 million of these being in the U.K.
The fintech startup has committed to invest $13 billion in global expansion over the next five years in a bid to grow its customer base to 100 million.
Revolut acquired a U.K. banking licence in 2024 after a three-year wait. On September 23, 2025, the digital banking firm opened its global headquarters in London’s Canary Wharf area.
The move strengthened Revolut’s U.K. roots and its vision of becoming a global financial service leader. The fintech firm is focused on acquiring a full banking license in the U.K.
