We've compiled a list of questions that Banking partners,investors and startup mentors and other people have asked us in the past. If nothing else the document is a good overview of how the concept has evolved during the last couple of

Thanks for the great explanation about acquisition costs. I think we can use it :)

Point taken, though I disagree with your assertions that credit cards don't have much to do with classical banking and that they are not about promotion. It's also true that banking services are entirely different from facebook.

The website is out of sync with our ideas. We need to update it. Apologies for any confusion caused. If you don't see any new idea then can you at least see a concept that has been proven already by revolut. If so can you see a possibi

>the UK mortgage industry is technologically stone age! Very interesting. Would love to have more details! May I also ask if Virgin money has services that integrate with their other business, like say virgin airlines, as well?

Great critiques! Please understand that when you write a pitch the tone has to be a bit assertive. It wasn't meant to be insulting but rather invigorating. However I apologize for any offence if might have caused. We didn't mean

You misunderstand me.... You can think of revolut as a front end for barclays client pool account. This is a very simplistic explanation but what I'm trying to emphasize here is that the money revolut manages is effectively with Barcla

Yes! and virgin has a bank as well. This is a very lucrative market.

It should be on bank statements and on the card. What I was trying to say though was that the fact that Barclays has a system like Revolut is a problem for other banks that don't have a system like that. So our solution is still valuab

Ha! didn't know. Any way Revolut works in partnership with barclays. There are other banks to whom the service will be valuable. Out of curiosity by just do you mean today?

You are right about the countries wanting to protect their own banks. We're not suggesting a "savings account" in the sense that you keep your money in a foreign bank. This is more like an efficient "bank proxy". Do

Yes both Revolut and centtrip have marketed their products to only consumers (travelers) where as the concept of multicurrency accounts is very useful to business as well. Not just individuals. The customer acquisition strategy is like Revo

The documents that are stored in couchdb are versioned as long as you don't replicate/ don't compress the database. You can query for all the _revs of a document. You can make api calls to give you an older _rev of the doc

Indexes are cached on disk. As the new data comes in that satisfies the query function,that you have written,it will automatically be appended to the index that has already been built up to that point. The query results are retuned with Eta
