Revolut Partners with Lightspark to Enable Lightning Network for Bitcoin Payments

Revolut has partnered with Lightspark to integrate the Lightning Network into its Bitcoin payment system. This upgrade allows UK and EEA users to send BTC quickly and at low fees.

Integration enhances transaction speed and reduces costs using Lightspark’s infrastructure.
Revolut aims to improve global payment efficiency beyond trading and custody.
Lightspark’s support for UMA enables users to send money via email-style addresses.
Initial rollout targets UK and selected EEA users, with expansion planned for other regions.
This initiative positions Revolut as a leading platform for fast crypto-enabled transfers.
