Can I open a Revolut Pro account? You can open a Revolut Pro account if you: have a Revolut Personal account; are a self-employed natural person (not a company); will only use your Revolut Pro account for business purposes; and pass our onboarding checks. You must continue to do these things after you open your Revolut Pro account too. If you don’t, we might have to close it. Sometimes we may need to run additional checks before we can let you use additional services available for Revolut Pro where you haven’t used them before. This is the case for our payment processing product, and we explain a bit more about these services and what checks we’ll need to do first in the Payment Processing Terms. A self-employed natural person is a person who is undertaking a business activity in their own right. They are sometimes called a “freelancer” or a “sole trader”. Being a natural person just means you're a real human being, not an incorporated company. If you are after an easy account to manage your self-employment or side hustle finances alongside your Personal account, then Revolut Pro is probably right for you. If your business grows, or if you need more features, you may need to set up a Revolut Business account instead. You cannot open or hold a Revolut Pro account if you carry out any sort of business or activity that relates to the following: dating and escort services: pornography; weapons; trading in precious metals, stones or art; running an auction house; cashback services; chemicals and related products; video-game arcades; trading in cryptocurrency; selling second-hand cars; binary options or gambling; debt collection; or trading in prime-bank guarantees, debentures, letters of credit or medium-term notes. We can refuse to let you open or hold a Revolut account if you carry out any other business or activity that we are not comfortable with. We can also apply restrictions to your Pro account, which we'll tell you about before it is opened.
