TAP Air Portugal, the leading Portuguese airline, has announced a new strategic partnership with Revolut, the global fintech with over 60 million customers globally, and more than 11 million in the UK. The collaboration will introduce Revolut Pay as a secure one-click checkout option for customers in the UK and Portugal.

Revolut Pay, Revolut’s innovative payment solution, allows customers in the United Kingdom and Portugal to book flights on the TAP website in seconds, without the need to enter their payment details. By clicking Revolut Pay at the checkout on the TAP Air Portugal website and mobile app, customers can purchase their flight seamlessly and securely in a matter of seconds, approving the payment via their Revolut app, protected by a passcode or biometrics.

With over 2 million global Revolut Pay users, the technology offered by Revolut Pay allows TAP Air Portugal to maximise conversion rates, with an average authorisation rate of 98.5% and card abandonment rates less than 10%. Partners can also accept payments in 33 currencies with the payment solution and settle funds within 24 hours.

João Frias, Head of Payment Strategy & Fraud Prevention, TAP Air Portugal, stated, “We are constantly focused on enhancing our customers’ experience at every stage of their journey and the payment moment is a key part of that. This partnership with Revolut allows us to offer a fast, secure, and modern payment option, while reinforcing our digital innovation strategy. With Revolut Pay, we are simplifying the booking process and delivering greater convenience to our passengers.”
