## Source summary
CoinDesk reports that Revolut began rolling out EURR to a selected customer group in Denmark, Poland and Portugal before a broader retail-app integration. The MiCA-compliant token is legally issued by Stripe-owned Bridge, is redeemable at one euro, and has contracts on Ethereum and Polygon. Bridge's reserve page showed 374 EURR in circulation backed by EUR 374 of cash deposits at publication time.
## Why it matters
The rollout puts a regulated euro-backed token inside a mainstream financial app and may create a new euro on-ramp for eligible users. Availability is still extremely limited: Revolut's 80 million retail customers and 16 million crypto users describe its wider customer base, not EURR adoption, while the reserve snapshot shows only 374 tokens in circulation. The report discloses no supported payment or transfer use cases, fees, redemption timing, transaction volume, general-availability date or achieved cross-border settlement benefit; the EURR ticker also overlaps with Stablr's token.
## Key numbers
- **Initial rollout markets:** 3 — Denmark, Poland and Portugal
- **EURR circulation and cash reserves shown at publication:** 374 EURR; EUR 374
- **Revolut-wide retail and crypto users stated in the report:** more than 80 million; more than 16 million
