Revolut removes fees on Tezos (XTZ) delegation rewards

From November 26, 2025, Revolut has introduced a significant innovation for its clients holding Tezos (XTZ): all holders will receive 100% of the on-chain delegation rewards, thanks to an update of the auto-delegation feature that completely eliminates fees on yield generation. 

This move, announced by the fintech giant boasting over 65 million clients worldwide, represents a significant step towards simplifying participation in the Tezos network, especially following the recent Rio protocol upgrade, which reduced network cycles to just one day.

Zero Fees: All the Benefits for Tezos (XTZ) Holders on Revolut

The new zero-fee structure ensures that every Revolut user with a balance in Tezos (XTZ) can fully benefit from the delegation rewards generated by the Tezos network, without any deductions or additional costs from the platform. Currently, Revolut performs self-delegation of all tez balances, allowing users to earn rewards while maintaining full liquidity of their assets, one of the strengths of the Tezos delegation model.

This feature distinguishes XTZ from many other cryptocurrencies available on Revolut. Although the platform allows trading of over 280 cryptocurrencies, only 13 offer native earning functionalities. The inclusion of tez in this select group, combined with the absence of fees, positions XTZ as one of the most attractive options for those looking to earn returns from their cryptocurrencies.

A Simplified and Transparent User Experience

The auto-delegation feature of Revolut operates completely automatically: rewards accumulate directly in users’ balances without requiring any manual intervention. This flexibility, combined with the zero-fee policy, creates an ideal balance between earning potential and accessibility, making participation in the Tezos network simple even for those without technical expertise.

Vincent Poulain, Manager of Technical User Relations at Nomadic Labs, emphasized:

“Revolut’s decision to transfer 100% of delegation rewards to users demonstrates the economic efficiency of Tezos; this creates an unbeatable user experience.”

Even Emil Urmanshin, Director – Crypto & New Bets at Revolut, highlighted the significance of this development: 

“We know that our clients want their cryptocurrencies to work harder for them, and that is exactly what we are offering with tez. It’s the kind of simple and transparent earning experience that our users deserve.”

Tezos and Revolut: A Synergy for Simplification

Revolut’s approach to Tezos delegation serves as a concrete example of how both the platform and the Tezos ecosystem are focused on simplifying the user experience. Revolut handles all the technical aspects of delegation, allowing users to fully enjoy the benefits without needing to understand validator dynamics, delegation mechanics, or settings management.

This strategy significantly lowers the entry barrier for those wishing to actively participate in the Tezos network, providing an accessible experience even for less experienced users and making yield generation a practice within everyone’s reach.

Tezos: a Cutting-Edge Blockchain

Tezos stands out as one of the most innovative and sustainable blockchains on the global scene. Open-source and energy-efficient, it is designed to support institutions, developers, and businesses in managing value transfers in a digital environment. Its structure, based on Proof of Stake, ensures robust governance, long-term upgradability, and advanced capabilities for smart contracts, making it ideal for the scalable deployment of decentralized applications.

The Rio protocol update, which has reduced network cycles to just one day, demonstrates the Tezos community’s ongoing commitment to optimizing and simplifying network participation.

Revolut: Continuous Innovation in Fintech

Founded in 2015 in the United Kingdom, Revolut quickly established itself as a global leader in the fintech sector, offering innovative solutions for money management. 

Today, over 65 million customers worldwide use Revolut products to conduct more than one billion transactions every month. 

The platform offers both personal and business accounts, providing users with increased control over their finances and connecting individuals and businesses on an international level.

A New Standard for Yield Generation in Cryptocurrencies

The removal of fees on Tezos delegation rewards sets a new standard for yield generation in cryptocurrencies. 

Revolut users can now fully leverage the potential of Tezos, benefiting from a simple, transparent earning experience with no hidden fees. This initiative not only strengthens XTZ’s position among the most intriguing cryptocurrencies on Revolut, but also serves as a virtuous example of how technological innovation and user focus can go hand in hand.
