How to buy crypto with Revolut
Revolut is the easiest place to buy crypto if you already use it for banking. The one thing to check first: whether your account can SEND crypto to an external wallet — that ability has rolled out gradually and isn’t available to everyone.
External crypto withdrawals exist but depend on your region, the coin, and your account — with limits. Confirm sending is enabled for YOUR account before you rely on it for casino deposits.

Before you start
Quick checklist so nothing trips you up:
- The Revolut app installed and your account set up (most people already have this).
- A government photo ID, in case you’re asked to re-verify for crypto.
- Money in your Revolut balance, or a card/bank to top up.
- The casino’s USDT deposit address and required network (you’ll grab these in Step 4).
Your crypto guideBefore anything else: in Step 4 we check whether your Revolut can actually send crypto out. That’s the make-or-break bit.
-
Open the Crypto section
Revolut has crypto built into the main app — no separate account needed.
- Open Revolut and tap the “Crypto” tab (sometimes under “Invest” or the search bar).
- If prompted, accept the crypto terms and complete any extra identity check.
What you’ll see: A list of coins you can buy, with live prices.

Make sure you have money to spend
You buy crypto straight from your Revolut balance.
- If your balance is low, tap “Add money” and top up by card or bank transfer.
- EU users: SEPA bank transfer is cheap; cards are instant.
What you’ll see: Your available balance at the top of the app.

Buy USDT
USDT is the digital dollar — stable value, ideal for paying a casino. (Revolut also offers BTC, ETH and others, but those swing in price.)
- In the Crypto tab, search for “USDT” (Tether).
- Tap “Buy”, enter the amount, and confirm.
What you’ll see: A USDT balance roughly equal to the euros/pounds you spent, minus a small fee.

★ Check you can send — then send to the casino
This decides whether Revolut works for casino deposits at all. You need the “send to external wallet” feature.
- In your USDT holding, look for “Send”, “Transfer” or “Withdraw” → “To an external wallet / blockchain address”.
- If you only see options to send to other Revolut users, your account can’t send crypto out yet — buy elsewhere (Coinbase/Kraken/widget) instead.
- If external sending IS available: in the casino cashier, copy the USDT deposit address and note the NETWORK.
- Paste the address in Revolut, choose the matching network, send a small test amount first, then the rest.
What you’ll see: A confirmation that the transfer was sent, moving to “completed”.

Your crypto guideNo external-send option? Totally fine — head to the Coinbase or MoonPay guide. You’ll be funded in minutes.
-
Confirm it arrived
Your USDT should appear in the casino balance within minutes.
- Check the casino cashier shows your deposit.
- For withdrawals later, request a crypto payout to your Revolut external address (if enabled) or to another wallet/exchange.
What you’ll see: Deposit credited — ready to play.
Troubleshooting
I can only send crypto to other Revolut users
That means external-wallet sending isn’t enabled for your account/region yet. You can still buy and hold here, but to fund a casino use a provider that sends to external wallets — Coinbase, Kraken or a widget like MoonPay/Ramp.
I can’t buy USDT at all
EU MiCA rules restrict USDT on some platforms. Try the Europe region guide for a buy-to-wallet widget that delivers USDT straight to a wallet.
My crypto transfer is “pending” for a long time
On-chain transfers usually arrive in minutes. Check the transaction status in-app; if it shows “completed” but the casino hasn’t credited it, contact the casino with the transaction ID.
My top-up failed
Try a bank (SEPA) transfer instead of card, or add money from a different source. Cards are occasionally blocked for crypto-related spending.
