Who is Revolut Mobile?
Revolut Mobile is a new offering from Revolut, a financial technology company. Self-described as ‘an all-in-one finance app for your money’, Revolut’s app offers a range of services and features such as banking, payment, money management, investment, crypto and budgeting tools.
Users earn RevPoints for spending money via Revolut services, which can be redeemed for rewards. Revolut Mobile plans are integrated into this existing app.
Last year, Revolut eSim launched and is now used in over 100 locations. The UK and Germany are the first countries to see the new Revolut Mobile plans. In the UK it runs on the Vodafone network
What Sim deals does Revolut Mobile offer?
Revolut has launched with just one Sim deal – a rolling one-month contract with unlimited calls, texts and data for £12.50 a month if you join before 30 March 2026. If you join after this date, the Sim is £14.99 a month.
As it’s a one month contract, if an annual price increase is introduced and you are unhappy, you can simply switch to a different network.
If you use other Revolut services and earn RevPoints, it’s possible to redeem them to pay for your mobile plan.
Are Revolut Mobile's Sim deals good value?
Revolut’s unlimited data deal is currently £12.50 a month (£14.50 for customers joining after 30 March 2026), let’s see how it compares with the rest of the market:
Big Four unlimited data Sim contracts
- EE - £27 (Unlimited No Frills, 24 month), £48 (Unlimited Full Works, 24 month), increases by £2.50 a month in April
- O2 - £32 (Unlimited Classic plan, 24 month), £45.59 (Unlimited Ultimate Plan, 12 month), increases by £2.50 a month in April
- Three - £32 (Unlimited Lite, 24 month), £39 (Unlimited Complete, 12 month), increases by £1.80 a month in April
- Vodafone - £33 (Unlimited Plus, 24 month), £48 (Unlimited Max Xtra Global Roam, 12 month), increases by £2.50 a month in April
Smaller networks unlimited Sim deals
- Smarty - £18 (30-day), no price increase
- iD Mobile - £18 (30-day or 12 month), £17 (24 month), no price increase
- Asda Mobile - £22 (30-day or 12 month), £19 (24 month), no price increase
This means you could save a significant amount if you switch to Revolut from one of the most expensive deals with a big four network. Even switching from some of the cheapest networks in the market such as Smarty and iD Mobile could save you £5.50 a month if you sign up for the lower price.

Does Revolut Mobile offer free EU roaming?
Yes, Revolut offers 20GB of roaming in 30 EU countries. Unusually, this allowance also applies to the US, which is an excellent perk for anyone who frequently travels there.
Additionally, Revolut plans come with a ‘Messaging Pass’. This lets you use a small amount of data with restricted bandwidth for messaging and other apps in countries outside the EU or US.
Revolut claims the Pass provides access to at least 250MB of roaming data with an estimated maximum speed of 16Kbps and is designed for text-based messaging apps like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger and Telegram, but not non-text content sharing, streaming or internet calls.
