Trust Wallet and Revolut launch direct crypto purchases across Europe

Trust Wallet, the self-custodial wallet backed by Binance co-founder Changpeng "CZ" Zhao, has partnered with European fintech giant Revolut to offer users in the European Economic Area (EEA) an easy and instant way to purchase major cryptocurrencies.

Announced on Thursday, the integration allows Trust Wallet users to purchase Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) and Solana (SOL) directly through Revolut's payment channels without leaving the app.

Integration with Revolut: commission-free crypto purchases

The new feature allows purchases from €10 to €23,000 per transaction or per day, offering ample flexibility to both beginners and experienced users. Once the transaction is complete, the cryptocurrencies purchased are transferred directly into the user's Trust Wallet, combining Revolut's numerous fiat channels with the security of decentralised self-custody.

One of the biggest selling points of the launch is the zero-fee structure on crypto purchases made with Revolut balances. However, Revolut points out that adding funds to the account can result in normal top-up fees, such as 1.5% on cash deposits up to a maximum of $3,000 per month. These top-up fees do not affect the exemption applied to crypto purchases.

The companies confirmed that although only BTC, ETH and SOL are supported at launch, availability will be extended to stablecoins such as USDC in the future.

Expanded fiat support and regulatory compliance strengthen rollout

Usersers can fund purchases using different fiat currencies supported by Revolut, including euro, British pound, Czech krone, Danish krone and Polish złoty, expanding accessibility across the EEA.

The integration follows a recent regulatory milestone for Revolut: approval from the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission (CySEC) obtained in October.

This authorisation allows the company to offer crypto services under the European MiCA regulation in 30 EEA markets, boosting confidence in compliant digital asset transactions.

Trust Wallet expands as demand for self-custody grows

Trust Wallet's move is part of its broader strategy to expand services for self-custody-oriented users. The company is increasing access to emerging Web3 sectors, including prediction markets and tokenized real-world assets, allowing users to interact with new digital asset offerings without relying on centralised custodians.

Representatives from both companies were contacted for further comment on the partnership, but did not respond at the time of publication.
