Has anyone here used Revolut? How does it compare to privacy.com for EU users?

Can you use the tap to pay on your phone without using Google Wallet?

    Do you have any sources for attaching a revolut card to the phone’s NFC? Is that a service they provide in their app or do you mean copying the card chip manually?

      WDYM by source? You just open phone settings, NFC and choose Revolut to be the app to be used with NFC
      If you choose to be issued physical card there probably is a way to just copy it physically into NFC but I haven’t used that
      Revolut is just another bank. It’s just a little less behind the times than most

        Revolut does not show up as NFC payment app on my phone. My bank’s app and Google Pay do.

          most banks do not support NFC payments in their apps

          Huh? All the other banks I use support it

          But you’re right regarding Revolut. I just checked and I was wrong, it’s not there in the settings. I have no idea how I used it with NFC in the past, then. Most of the time I use BLIK

            Interesting, based on similar threads I was under the impression most banks didn’t support NFC payments without Google Pay. Sadly no banks here have their own NFC payments. My bank used to have it but then removed it for some reason.
