What happens to your Revolut accounts when you die

No beneficiary or trust option on any account, so they pass through the estate

Revolut does not currently support beneficiary designations, transfer-on-death registrations, or trust account titling on any account type. All Revolut accounts pass through the estate at death and may require probate.

When an account holder dies, the executor or administrator will need to contact Revolut with a death certificate and legal authority documents to claim account balances. The process and required documents are covered on the death claim page.

Revolut does not currently support beneficiary designations (POD or TOD) on any account type. All accounts transfer through the estate at death and may require probate.

Why trust accounts are not available

Revolut does not support retitling accounts into a trust, naming a trust as beneficiary, or any other probate-avoidance mechanism. Account balances transfer through the estate at death.

Each is insured up to $250,000 at the holding bank. The Savings Vaults Terms (Cross River Bank Program) state that Revolut may end the agreement immediately if "you have died".
