What it is

The English version of these terms is always the legally binding version — if you read a translation and it says something different from the English version, the English version wins.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

If you read Revolut's terms in a language other than English and there is any difference between the translation and the English original, the English version is what legally applies — meaning translated terms cannot be relied upon if they say something different.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

Non-English-speaking customers who rely on translated versions of Revolut's terms could be bound by English-language provisions they did not fully understand, which may disadvantage non-native English speakers in disputes.

View original clause language
These terms and conditions are originally written in and governed by the English language. If this text is translated into another language and there is a conflict between the English and non-English versions, the English text will prevail.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: Language supremacy clauses in consumer financial contracts may engage state consumer protection requirements for disclosures in languages other than English where a significant portion of customers are non-English-speaking. California Financial Code §§1632 and 22174 require certain financial contracts negotiated in Spanish to be provided in Spanish. FTC guidance on deceptive practices may apply where translated materials create material misunderstandings. (2)
