Revolut Business alternatives

A UK bank business account with wide currency coverage and tools for taking payments, payroll and expenses. Sole traders use Revolut Pro instead. If it doesn't fit, here are 31 accounts that share its market, starting with Incard, our pick for businesses whose main costs go on cards.

By the editorial team. How we make money. Our Revolut Business profile.

Why Incard is our pick instead of Revolut Business

  • Incard lists a £0 plan, which Revolut Business's pages don't
  • Incard lists card cashback, which Revolut Business's pages don't
  • Incard lists accounts for UK sole traders, which Revolut Business's pages don't
  • Incard lists accounts for LLPs, which Revolut Business's pages don't
  • Card cashback on Incard: Free: 1% on ads, software and travel, 0.5% on other eligible spend. Higher on Grow and Plus. Uncapped. Revolut Business: None listed for Revolut Business; up to 1% on Revolut Pro for sole traders

cashback a year on Incard's £0 Free plan from £5,000 a month of eligible ads, software and travel spend. Simple arithmetic, not a forecast.

The alternatives

Table notes: correct as of 8 November 2026, from each provider's own pages. Incard is first as our pick for card spend (we may earn a commission from it); the rest are alphabetical, not ranked. “Lists” means the provider's pages mention it and Revolut Business's don't.

What Revolut Business does well

Before you move, check that you won't lose something you use. Revolut Business suits you if:

Many businesses keep their existing account and add a second one for card spending. Our switching guide covers both routes.

When Incard isn't the answer

Incard isn't the right account if

  • Your business is registered outside the UK and Switzerland. EEA onboarding is paused until an expected restart in 2027
  • You're a charity, cooperative, foundation, trust or public body, or work in one of Incard's restricted industries
IncardOur pick for card spend

Incard: 1% cashback on ads, software and travel, on a £0 plan

Our pick for UK and Swiss businesses whose main costs go on cards, as long as you don't need bank deposit protection.
