Revolut Ltd, company number 08804411, has one person with significant control on the register: Revolut Group Holdings Ltd (company number 12743269), which holds 75% or more of the shares and voting rights. The control was notified on 29 April 2022.

That makes Revolut Ltd the UK operating company inside a larger group rather than the top of it. The accounts on this page are Revolut Ltd's own, not the group's, so they describe the UK company alone.

The Companies House register lists 10 current officers for Revolut Ltd. The longest serving, Nikolay Storonskiy, was appointed in December 2013, the month the company was incorporated.

Revolut Ltd reported turnover of £3,312m in the year to December 2025, up 35.0% on £2,453m the year before. Headcount grew more slowly, from 4,918 to 5,310, so each person on the payroll is carrying more revenue than a year earlier.

It filed a pre-tax profit of £1,448m for the year, against a pre-tax profit of £970m the year before.

Staff costs came to £645m, an average of £121,000 a head. The company ended the year with £6,652m at the bank and net assets of £2,650m, and paid dividends of £324m.
