This clause establishes Revolut's operational authority to unilaterally modify service access based on compliance determinations, regulatory obligations, or fraud/illegality assessments, as well as discretionary termination authority. The provision's operational significance derives from the breadth of suspension triggers and the asymmetric control it allocates to the service provider over account continuity.
The updated Terms of Service no longer document the Move Money Rules feature, which previously allowed users to set up automatic fund transfers across account pockets or currency exchanges based on custom conditions. The removal of this documentation means users cannot point to the terms as a reference for how this feature operates, what limits apply, or what fees may be charged. If the feature remains available in the app, its operational parameters are no longer formally described in the binding terms document.
