Revolut Bank - The bank that stays digital
According to the information, Revolut Bank will not have physical branches, maintaining its digital presence.  In response to Lusa, Revolut CEO Joe Heneghan said the company has 500,000 clients in Portugal, and from now on, the deposits of those who decide to transfer their money to Revolut Bank will be protected by a “money deposit guarantee.”
In a survey conducted among clients in Portugal, it was found that 56% would be available to get paid at Revolut and would use more of the company's services if there was deposit protection.
When asked about access to the Multibanco network, the company's official source told Lusa that there is nothing new and that the company is in talks with SIBS (Multibanco Network Director) and Banco de Portugal in this regard.
