Revolut Launches Mobile Plan in Germany for €15
Revolut has launched Revolut Mobile in Germany, priced at €14.99 per month. The plan includes 120 GB of 5G data at up to 100 Mbit/s, unlimited calls and SMS within Germany, 40 GB EU roaming, and a Messaging Pass for unlimited messaging in over 140 countries. Customers can keep their existing number or get a new one, manage up to three additional numbers, and benefit from no minimum term and no switching fees, plus a free NordVPN subscription. The service uses Telefónica Deutschland's network with 1GLOBAL as technical partner. Germany is the fourth market after the UK, Poland, and the Netherlands. With over 3 million customers in Germany, the rollout will be phased over coming weeks. This move intensifies competition in the German discount mobile market, positioning Revolut to deepen customer loyalty within its app ecosystem.
Revolut expands into telecom, offering a bundled mobile plan that could increase customer lock-in and cross-selling opportunities, impacting the fintech and telecom sectors. It signals a trend of neobanks becoming mobile service providers.
