I think our objective is not to be globally number one is to be number one everywhere. Not really like JP Morgan because you could argue JP Morgan is the biggest bank in the world, but actually only the biggest bank in the us so they are far from being the number one everywhere. I think our model is much closer to probably what Amazon is for e commerce where it's not just about dominating globally, it's about dominating everywhere.

B
Yes, they offer great benefits at first, but then what you realize is that the way they are managing their customers in the long run is not beneficial to people. And what we're doing at Revolut is the opposite. We don't necessarily offer huge bonus and things for people to come. But then we'd rather build generosity along all the customer lifetime. Yeah.

At the end of the day it's about transparency. For example, we charge when people get a physical card. It makes sense. There is a cost. You need to produce the physical card, you need to send a physical card, while traditional banks do the opposite. You know, you get the car for free, but you pay for some transfer or some FX where there's no cost. So we'd rather charge people where we have a cost and not charge people where we don't have a cost. The behavior we observe is a lot of the people, they pay their bills at the beginning of the month that they move everything they have left to Revolut and at the end of the day the bank they use every single day is Revolut already and not in other traditional bank where they just go there once a month just to check the light. I don't think it's going to stay like this. I think we're in a transition phase where they are still using both a traditional bank and a bank like Revolut. But things are shifting gradually. We are seeing more and more people that are realizing that ultimately they don't need another bank. So I'd say the next five years would be that transition phase where we're going to see more and more people bringing back this concept of primary banking to places like Revolut.
