Revolut launches Blik Global: Polish payments for customers in EEA countries

Revolut has announced the rollout of Blik Global, a service that opens the Polish mobile payment system to customers outside Poland. The Antyweb website reported the news on 5 November 2026.

Who can use it

There are two conditions: you must be a Revolut customer registered in a country of the European Economic Area (EEA) and hold an active account in Polish zlotys. The fintech estimates that more than 2.2 million users outside Poland currently meet them.

How it works

The mechanism is the same as in Poland. In the Revolut app you tap the Blik shortcut to generate a standard six-digit code that is valid for two minutes. According to Antyweb, the code lets you:

• pay in Polish online shops without currency conversion of card transactions,
• pay at physical terminals,
• withdraw cash from ATMs in Poland.

The service is meant to make life easier for people living abroad who until now kept a Polish bank account only to make an occasional purchase in a Polish online shop.

Blik at Revolut in numbers

Revolut said that in 2026 its customers made more than 60 million transactions via Blik. That is an increase of more than 150% on the previous year. Currently 3 million Revolut users use this form of payment.

According to figures cited in the source, in the third quarter of 2026 the Polish Payment Standard processed more than 820 million transactions with a total value of more than 131 billion zlotys.

What this means for you

The United Kingdom is not part of the EEA. The source does not say whether Blik Global will cover Revolut customers registered in the UK, so it is unclear whether people living in the UK will be able to use it. It is worth checking in the Revolut app or in the company's announcements. People whose Revolut account is registered in an EEA country meet the country requirement.
