Revolut unveils cross-border hiring platform

17th April 2026

Revolut expands its business banking services with the launch of GlobalHire, a platform designed to simplify overseas recruitment, onboarding, and payroll for companies seeking international growth without establishing local entities.

Revolut has expanded its business banking push with the launch of GlobalHire, a platform aimed at helping companies recruit, onboard and pay staff in overseas markets without having to set up local entities. The move adds a new layer of employment services to the fintech’s enterprise offering, as it looks to make cross-border hiring less cumbersome for smaller firms and mid-sized groups seeking international growth.

According to Finextra, the service is built into the Revolut Business app and is designed to automate some of the most time-consuming parts of recruitment abroad, including payroll and tax administration. Revolut says the system is intended to reduce friction for finance teams while keeping compliance and capital control visible to senior managers.

The company also says the platform includes features such as in-house currency conversion for local payouts, help with local legal requirements and, for eligible customers, waived security deposits. Pricing starts at £499 per month per employee, a sign that Revolut is targeting firms that want outsourced employer-of-record support without the complexity of handling foreign hires through separate providers.

The launch fits a broader pattern in which financial technology groups are moving further into workplace software and human resources tools. Revolut Business now says it serves close to 800,000 companies worldwide and processed more than £277bn in transaction volumes in 2025, according to Finextra, underscoring the scale the company has built since its business accounts product first launched in 2017.
