Revolut offers banking services in various countries with various currencies. It is most heavily used in the EUR market, but has seen action in other markets increase as Revolut has expanded the markets it operates, representing a good chance for international payments and USD payments. Due to recurring issues with other banks, it's not possible to add a Revolut SEPA account or use it as "faster payments" at Bisq. This payment method is only for transfers between Revolut users.
Creating the account in Bisq
To create a Revolut payment account in Bisq, you need to input the country for your Revolut account, your revolut username (since v1.3.8), and the currencies that you wish to trade with the account.
Remember that none of this information can be modified once an account is created, and account signing data can be lost if not properly backed up. If you edit your username, a new Bisq account should have to be created, unsigned and with 0.01 BTC trading limits.
Revolut username
On the bottom of your Revolut app, tap the two arrows symbol in the middle. Then, under your real name, there's a @username. This is what should go into your account details, and what you should use to make a Revolut payment. Usernames are case-sensitive.
Pay to username
Revolut calls usernames "Revtags", and has a help center article called How can I send money by Revtag? which explains how to send money to one. If that doesn't work, see Why can’t I pay someone by Revtag? and make sure that "Payments with friends" is enabled.
