How to add Revolut Business to your website
Revolut Business is a business account with built-in payment links and online checkout, used by freelancers and small businesses banking with Revolut Business. Here's how to put it on your own website, which embed option to pick, and what goes wrong.
Quick answer
Get the code from your Revolut Business account under Merchant or Payments, in the Payment Links section. For most people the right choice is the payment link — a hosted checkout for a fixed or customer-chosen amount. Paste it into a code or embed block on your site — not a plain text field — then place it beside your main call to action and test the whole flow on a phone before relying on it.
Revolut Business: which option to use
| Option | What it does |
|---|---|
| Payment link | A hosted checkout for a fixed or customer-chosen amount. |
| QR code | The same link as a QR code, useful in person and on printed material. |
| Reusable vs one-off links | One-off links expire after payment, which suits invoicing; reusable links suit a service listed on your site. |
Step-by-step
- 1
Find the code or link in your account
Revolut Business keeps this in your Revolut Business account under Merchant or Payments, in the Payment Links section. Copy what you need before touching your website — most of the time people lose is spent hunting for the snippet, not installing it.

Pick the right option for the job
The table above is the decision. Payment link: A hosted checkout for a fixed or customer-chosen amount. QR code: The same link as a QR code, useful in person and on printed material. Choosing before you paste saves rebuilding the section later.

Paste it into a code or embed block
This needs an HTML, code or embed block — not a plain text field, where the code will simply appear as text on your page. On Adviita, ask the AI editor to add an embed section and drop the code in. On WordPress use a Custom HTML block, on Squarespace a Code block (Business plan or above), and on Wix an Embed HTML element.

Put it where the decision happens
Getting paid should take the customer as few taps as possible — every extra step is money left on the table. A widget three scrolls down does a fraction of the work of the same widget beside your main call to action. Decide what the page is for, then place it at the point the visitor is deciding.
- 5
Check it on an actual phone
Most visitors to a small business website arrive on a phone, and embeds are where mobile layouts break. Open your live site on your own phone and confirm it loads, fits the screen without sideways scrolling, and does not push your contact button out of view. Third-party embeds are also the most common cause of a slow page, so if it noticeably delays loading, consider a plain link instead.

Test it end to end before you rely on it
Run through the whole flow yourself as a customer would — make a small real payment — and confirm what should happen actually happens. Broken embeds fail silently, and the first person to notice is usually a customer who has already given up.
Tips & best practices
- ▸Merchant features need to be activated separately from the bank account, and approval is not instant. Do not plan a launch around it without checking first.
- ▸One-off links expire once paid — using one on a website page means the second customer finds a dead link. Use a reusable link for anything on your site.
- ▸Currency handling is a genuine strength here, but confirm which currencies you can actually accept and settle in.
- ▸Re-test the embed after any change to your site, your plan, or the connected account — third-party widgets break quietly and nothing tells you.
Common questions
How do I create a Revolut payment link?
+−
In Revolut Business, open the merchant or payments area and create a payment link, choosing a fixed amount or letting the customer enter one. Copy the URL and put it behind a button on your website. Use a reusable link rather than a one-off if it is going on a public page.
Is Revolut Business good for taking website payments?
+−
It is convenient if you already bank there — the money lands in the same account and multi-currency handling is strong. For higher volume or more complex needs, Stripe offers more control and better developer tooling. For a freelancer taking occasional deposits, Revolut is entirely adequate.
Do I need a developer to add Revolut Business to my site?
+−
No. Every option here is copy and paste into a code or embed block, which every mainstream website builder provides. The only genuine blocker is a builder or plan that does not allow custom code at all — Squarespace, for instance, requires a Business plan or above for code blocks.
Will adding Revolut Business slow down my website?
+−
Any third-party embed has some cost, because it loads code from another company's servers. One is usually unnoticeable; four or five on the same page is where small business sites become visibly slow. If page speed matters to you, prefer a plain link over a script wherever the option exists, and keep embeds to the pages that genuinely need them.
