What they wish it did
Capabilities people described needing that Revolut does not give them, taken from the highest-scoring problems first. These are individual accounts written in each person’s own terms, so two entries may describe the same underlying gap in different words.
- A dedicated corporate payment app that guarantees instant approval for large transactions without triggering manual reviews
- Automated business-personal transaction segregation and tax-ready expense reporting
What they do instead
The manual processes people built around the gap. A long workaround list is the strongest evidence a problem is real: someone is already paying for it in time. Where several people described the same workaround, it is marked.
- tried multiple bank accounts/cards sequentially until one worked
- used a different app (Keytom) meant for large supplier payments as a workaround
- mixes side hustle expenses with personal spending manually
- struggles to separate finances at tax time

Read this fairly
These are complaints, and only complaints — nobody posts to say their software worked. A high count mostly reflects how many people use Revolut at all, so this page is not a quality judgement and should not be read as one. What it is good for is the shape of the gaps: the specific jobs people could not get done, which are the same whether the tool is popular or not.
