What it is

If you have a dispute with Revolut, you must resolve it through private arbitration rather than going to court, and you cannot join a class action lawsuit with other customers.

Change history

added Apr 29, 2026

This is a material shift from previous dispute resolution terms, replacing traditional litigation rights with mandatory arbitration and eliminating class action remedies, significantly limiting user legal remedies.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

Consumers lose the right to pursue claims in court or as part of a class action, meaning individual arbitration through JAMS is the sole remedy for disputes with Revolut, which can be costly and impractical for small-value claims.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.

Why it matters (compliance & risk perspective)

This clause prevents you from suing Revolut in court and from joining with other affected customers in a class action — which is often the only practical way to hold a company accountable for small-value widespread harms.

View original clause language
Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by arbitration. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. Judgment on the Award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. You and Revolut agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.

Institutional analysis (Compliance & legal intelligence)

(1) REGULATORY FRAMEWORK: The arbitration clause implicates the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA, 9 U.S.C. §§1-16) which generally enforces such provisions. The CFPB's 2017 arbitration rule (12 CFR Part 1040), which would have restricted class action waivers in consumer financial contracts, was repealed by Congress under the Congressional Review Act. State-law challenges remain possible under unconscionability doctrine (e.g., California Civil Code §1670.5). The CFPB retains supervisory authority over arbitration practices under Dodd-Frank Act §1028. (2)
