Just a few weeks after UK fintech giant Revolut launched a new travel feature, Stays, that allows users to book a holiday and get up to 10% cashback, the company has introduced yet another dazzling cashback feature for its users. The new feature, called Restaurant Rewards, grants you up to 30% immediate cashback when you eat at any of over 600 London restaurants.
Here’s what you need to know about this enticing offer and how you can take advantage of it.

What is Revolut’s new cashback offer at London restaurants?
To celebrate the lifting of lockdown restrictions in the UK, Revolut has partnered with some of the most popular restaurants in London to offer users up to 30% cashback when they pay their bill*.
Revolut says it will be rolling out its new Restaurant Rewards scheme across the UK in 2021, with other European cities to follow.
How does the new offer work?
It’s very simple. Once you’ve finished your meal at any of the participating London restaurants, simply open the Revolut app and go to ‘Revolut Rewards’. Next, select the pub, restaurant or coffee shop you’re eating at. Finally, tap to activate the reward and then pay with your Revolut card. You will receive cashback into your Revolut account in just a few seconds.
What’s more, when you eat at participating restaurants in London, you can even opt to split the bill with your friends using the popular Revolut feature that allows you to divide an expense with your Revolut contacts and receive money back easily and quickly.
Commenting on the scheme, Mikael Peydayesh, lead product owner at Revolut, said: “At Revolut, we are all about giving our customers more. We know how challenging lockdown has been for the nation, and so we wanted to create an easy way to allow our customers to get more from their money while celebrating the return to normal life.
“We are also very proud to support the restaurant industry – from independent businesses to bigger chains – after a very difficult year. So, why not raise a glass and make a toast in one of the restaurants available with Revolut’s Restaurant Rewards and get cashback instantly after paying the bill?”
