Trendyol adds Revolut Pay to its marketplace checkout, running almost all payments over bank rails

Revolut Pay is now a built-in payment method at the checkout of Trendyol, the large online marketplace, The Paypers reported on 3 November 2026. Shoppers who choose it confirm the purchase with biometrics in the Revolut app instead of typing in card details, and the app shows a notification and an updated spending view straight away. The notable detail is the rail underneath. Revolut says almost every payment made through the integration settles as an account-to-account transfer rather than going over the card networks. Revolut pitches this to large merchants as a cheaper alternative to card acceptance that also cuts drop-off and processing delays at checkout. The report did not give the countries where the option is live, the fees Trendyol pays or any conversion figures. To push early use, Revolut is tying the launch to RevPoints, its loyalty scheme. Until 18 November 2026, Trendyol customers paying with Revolut Pay earn five times the usual points, which can be used as cash discounts at checkout or swapped in the app for travel rewards. Revolut, which says it has more than 80 million retail customers and 850,000 business clients, framed the deal around growing online shopping in Central and Eastern Europe. For other online merchants, the deal shows a wallet brand being used as the front end for bank-based payments. Shoppers see a familiar one-tap button, while the merchant receives a payment that does not carry card interchange or scheme fees. How refunds, disputes and buyer protection work on these transfers is not covered in the announcement, and those terms matter when comparing it with cards.
