The firm will broaden its services with the approval for forex cards and remittances.

A flag of India
Revolut India has recently announced that it has received an
in-principle authorization from the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to issue
Prepaid Payment Instruments, including prepaid cards and wallets. This
development adds to the company's existing authorization to operate as an ADII,
with permissions granted by the RBI for issuing multi-currency forex cards and
providing cross-border remittances.
Revolut India Achieves Authorization from RBI
This authorization marks a milestone for Revolut India, as
it enables the company to offer both international and domestic payment
solutions to Indian consumers through a single platform. Expressing gratitude
towards the RBI for the opportunity to operate in India, Revolut India's CEO, Paroma
Chatterjee, noted the honour of being selected among the 17 entities granted
this license.

“Over the last two years, we have been tirelessly building
the Revolut experience - for India, in India. Being fully compliant with all
regulatory requirements is our top priority. India is the only market where
Revolut has therefore undertaken the massive task of localising the global
tech-stack, in order to comply with local regulations,” she added.
Anticipating the introduction of its services to Indian
customers, Revolut India aims to bring the global Revolut experience to the
Indian market gradually. With over 175,000 prospective customers already on the
waitlist, the company looks forward to catering to the needs of Indian
consumers.
Revolut Expands with Banking License Approval in Mexico
The company plans to focus on cross-border remittances,
leveraging Mexico's lucrative market, where remittances reached a record $63.3
billion in 2023, predominantly from the United States. Additionally, Revolut
holds a banking license in the European Economic Area, granted by the central
bank of Lithuania, while operating with a payments institution license in the
UK as it awaits processing of its banking license application there.
