Revolut is a leading player in the mobile finance space, with over a million downloads and a strong presence in the App Store. As of this writing, Revolut holds the #1 spot in the Finance category in Great Britain.
Despite these impressive achievements, there’s still room to further enhance its App Store visibility and increase its chances of standing out even more.
No matter how successful Revolut is, continuous optimization is key to maintaining its top position and staying ahead of competitors.
In this ASO audit, we’ll explore actionable strategies to help Revolut strengthen its keyword rankings and maximize its growth potential.
We conducted a keyword analysis for Revolut in the Great Britain market, with detailed findings shared at the end of this post.
Our research shows that Revolut is already ranking for some key keywords. However, there are still valuable opportunities to enhance visibility and drive more organic traffic.
To identify these opportunities, we rely on ASO intelligence tools like Mobile Action. These tools help uncover high-volume, low-competition keywords that can significantly improve app visibility.
One of the key metrics we use is “Volume,” which ranges from 5 to 100. This score reflects how often users search for a particular keyword compared to others in the App Store and Google Play.
For instance, a keyword like “Facebook” holds a top volume score of 100, representing high user interest. On the other hand, a score of 5 indicates very low search activity, with most keywords falling somewhere in between.
This data helps guide our optimization strategy, ensuring we focus on keywords with the highest potential for impact.
Going back to the results that we got, here’s how Revolut’s ranking looks like:
We also did research on competitor keywords. We got the following results:
The results show us that there is a lot of work to do. To ensure that we climb up the rankings, we should use these keywords in our metadata.
The title of Revolut in the App Store is this:
Revolut – Mobile Finance
Revolut already has a strong title. Take note that the App Store allows us to use up to 30 characters for the title. As of now, Revolut is using 24 characters.
Looking at the search scores of the keywords included in the title, the search score of “mobile” is 31, and “finance” is 39. As you can see, all of the keywords have high search scores, and we can conclude that Revolut has a quite strong title. However, there is a great opportunity for improvement.
To ensure we stay competitive, we must test the title and its keywords continuously. One way to improve the title is to go to the keyword pool. From there, we should continuously check how many keywords we are ranking for that are in the title. For instance, we could check the keyword “send money” in our keyword pool.
After starting to use the “send money” keyword, do we start ranking higher for these keywords? Do we start ranking for more keywords that include “send money”? If the keywords are not improving our ranking, then we should test other keywords and their variations.
In this case, we can try a new title like:
Revolut: Mobile Money Transfer
As you can see, we have added the words “money” & “transfer” and removed the word “finance”. This is a great move in terms of keyword ranking for the following reasons:
All these changes to the title can potentially improve keyword ranking. However, please note that there are other combinations and possibilities when it comes to using keywords.
That’s the reason you need to constantly test these keywords. You should check your keyword ranking every week and see if the changes in your title bring better results.
The subtitle of Revolut in the App Store is this:
Travel, transfer and exchange
Like the title, Apple allows us to use up to 30 characters in the subtitle. As of now, Revolut uses 29 characters.
Looking at the search scores of the keywords included in the subtitle, the search score of “travel” is 44, “transfer” is 28 and “exchange” is 29. As you can see, all keywords have high search scores, and we can conclude that Revolut has a quite strong subtitle.
Even though, if we would like to test a new variation, the subtitle can be changed to:
Send, Pay, Invest, Trade, Card
As you can see we have added the words “send”, “pay”, “invest”, “trade”, & “card” and excluded the words “travel”, “transfer” & “exchange”. This is a great move in terms of keyword ranking for the following reasons:
To ensure we stay competitive, we must test the subtitle and its keywords continuously. One way to improve the subtitle is to go to the keyword pool. From there, we should continuously check how many keywords that are in the subtitle. For instance, we should check the keyword “financial technology” in our keyword pool.
After starting to use the “financial technology” keyword, do we start ranking higher for these keywords? Do we start ranking for more keywords that include “financial technology”? If the keywords are not improving our ranking, then we should test other keywords and their variations.
Looking at the ratings, we can see a lot of things to improve here. Take note that Revolut, at the time of this writing, has an average rating of 4.9 stars from more than 719.2K users.
Let’s compare that to their competitors:
We do need to improve app features and overall user experience to raise the ratings up and get more positive reviews.
Screenshots can either make or break your app. If you use the wrong screenshots, you’ll surely chase away users. Use the right screenshots, and you’ll attract more users.
As we take a look at Revolut’s screenshots, we can see that they have chosen great images. However, Revolut can use more value-oriented headlines on the screenshots. It is super important to choose screenshots that show the value, features, and reasons why users should use your app. Here are some of our feedback for Revolut:
The App Store allows us to use up to 10 screenshots. However, these screenshots don’t have equal exposure. As you may already know, potential users will initially see the first three screenshots. They need to open your page to see the rest of the screenshots.
With this in mind, you need to choose the best screenshots and place them on the first three screenshot slots.
To determine which screenshots give you the best result, A/B testing and Apple’s Product Page Optimization (PPO) are always the best way to go.
