Stripe, a financial infrastructure platform for businesses, announced that Revolut will use Stripe to support payments in the UK and Europe and accelerate its expansion into new markets.

After launching in the UK with money transfer and exchange services, Revolut now offers dozens of products—from accounts and insurance, to trading and invoicing—that improve money management for 18 million customers and 500,000 businesses in more than 200 countries and territories.

Revolut said that it will soon launch in Mexico and Brazil.

The company will leverage Stripe’s infrastructure and international footprint to enter these and other new markets more efficiently, and offer its customers a seamless payment experience that matches their local payment preferences.

Stripe and Revolut will also explore opportunities to deepen their collaboration and deliver innovative new payments products.
