What you can automate

What can the Revolut Business Make integration do for you?

The Revolut Business Make integration links your business account to Make, a no-code tool where you build a scenario: an automation made of modules, each one a single brick such as a trigger, an action or a search. Here every module works on draft payments, the payments you prepare in Revolut Business before they go out.

Prepared payments, not typed ones. A supplier request approved in another app can become a draft through Create a Draft Payment, so the person who signs off only checks what is already there instead of retyping amounts.

A team that hears about new drafts. Watch Draft Payments spots each new draft and can pass it to a chat tool or a tracking sheet, which keeps the approver in the loop without anyone forwarding screenshots.

A tidy drafts list. List Draft Payments pulls every draft in one go, and Delete a Draft Payment removes the ones a canceled order made useless.

Know the edges before you start: the modules only touch drafts, the directory gives no official limits for this app, and there is no Make an API Call module to reach beyond these 6. If you are weighing tools, read n8n vs Make, and check Make pricing to see how operations are counted. For a guided start, the Make training covers the editor step by step.

Connect

How do you connect Revolut Business to Make?

  1. 01

    Add a Revolut Business module

    Open a scenario, click the +, type Revolut Business and pick any of its modules. Then click Create a connection. A connection is your Revolut Business account linked to Make once and reused by every module of the app.

  2. 02

    Give the connection a name

    This step is optional, but a clear name such as the company it belongs to helps a lot once several people or several accounts share the same Make organization and you need to pick the right one in a hurry.

  3. 03

    Authorize Make and save

    Follow what Revolut Business shows you: either an authorization page where you allow Make, or a key the app gives you to paste into the connection window. Click Save, and the module can now read your drafts.

First scenario

Your first scenario with Revolut Business

GoalWhen a payment request is added in another app, Make prepares a matching draft in Revolut Business.

  1. 01

    Create the scenario

    On the Scenarios page, create a new scenario and click the + in the middle of the canvas to place its first module.

  2. 02

    Start from your request list

    Search the app where payment requests are collected, a spreadsheet for example, choose its watch module and connect the account. Make then lists the sheets or objects it can read.

  3. 03

    Add Create a Draft Payment

    Click the + on the right of that module, search Revolut Business and pick Create a Draft Payment. Create the connection, then map each field with data from the request.

  4. 04

    Test with Run once

    Add a test request, click Run once and open the bubbles to read the bundles, the items passed from one module to the next. A new draft should now wait in Revolut Business.

  5. 05

    Schedule and switch it on

    Click the clock on the first module to set the schedule, every 15 minutes by default, then turn the scenario on. Nothing leaves the account: the payment stays a draft until someone sends it.

Triggers

What starts a Revolut Business scenario

1 module starts a scenario when something happens in Revolut Business. A scheduled trigger is checked by Make on the scenario's schedule; an instant one is called by Revolut Business as soon as it happens.

Revolut Business1Watch Draft Payments

Watch Draft Payments

Scheduled trigger

In MakeTriggers when a new draft payment is found.

Each draft payment created in Revolut Business becomes a bundle your scenario can work with, so a new draft can alert an approver, feed a follow-up sheet or open a task without anyone watching the account.

How it fires
it is a scheduled trigger, meaning Make checks the app on the scenario's schedule, every 15 minutes by default, and picks up the drafts that appeared since the last check.
When to use it
when drafts are prepared by several colleagues and one person has to review them before anything is sent.
Watch out
because Make only looks at set moments, a draft reaches your scenario at the next check, not the second it is created in Revolut Business.
Modules

What each Revolut Business module does

Revolut Business gives you 5 modules. For each one: what it does for you, when to reach for it, and what to watch out for.

Revolut Business1

Create a Draft Payment

Action

In MakeCreates a draft payment.

You get a payment prepared in Revolut Business from data that already exists elsewhere, ready for a person to review and send, which removes the retyping of amounts and references by hand.

When to use it
after a supplier invoice or an expense request has been approved in another tool.
Watch out
map every value from the previous module and run a test first, since a wrong mapping creates a wrong draft.
Revolut Business2

Delete a Draft Payment

Action

In MakeDeletes a draft payment by its ID.

This removes a whole draft payment from Revolut Business, found by its ID, so your list of pending drafts only shows what still needs to go out.

When to use it
when the order or invoice behind the draft is canceled in the app where it started.
Watch out
it needs the exact ID of the draft, so feed it the one returned by Watch Draft Payments or List Draft Payments rather than typing it yourself.
Revolut Business3

Delete a Draft Payment Transfer

Action

In MakeDeletes a draft payment transfer.

This action deletes a draft payment transfer. Going by its name, it targets a transfer inside a draft, while Delete a Draft Payment removes the whole draft.

When to use it
when a transfer prepared in a draft should no longer go out and you want it gone from Revolut Business.
Watch out
the directory says little else about it, so run it once on a test draft and check the result in Revolut Business first.
Revolut Business4

Get a Draft Payment

Action

In MakeRetrieves the selected draft payment details.

Pick one draft payment and this action returns its details, giving the next modules full information to write in a report, a message or a spreadsheet row.

When to use it
when you already know which draft you need, for instance after the trigger, and want its complete record.
Watch out
it returns a single draft; to go through all of them, List Draft Payments is the better choice.
Revolut Business5

List Draft Payments

Search

In MakeRetrieves the list of draft payments.

Here you receive every draft payment of the account, one bundle per draft, which is handy to build a review list or to spot forgotten drafts before a closing.

When to use it
when an approver asks for a full picture of what is waiting instead of one new item.
Watch out
as a search, it can return zero, one or many bundles, and each module after it runs once per bundle, which counts operations on your plan.

FAQ

Revolut Business and Make: common questions

01Is the Revolut Business Make integration free?
Yes, Revolut Business is a standard app in Make, so you can use it from the Free plan. That plan allows 2 active scenarios, at least 15 minutes between two scheduled runs, up to 5 minutes per execution, files up to 5 MB and 512 MB of data transfer. Paid plans (Core, Pro, Teams and Enterprise) lower the interval to 1 minute, remove the cap on active scenarios and allow 40 minutes per execution. Usage is counted in operations, one per module per bundle, so a List Draft Payments that returns many drafts uses more of your monthly credits.
02What do you need to connect Revolut Business to Make?
A Revolut Business account and the right to authorize Make on it. The official documentation lists no prerequisite for this app, so the path is the generic one: add a Revolut Business module, click Create a connection, name it if you like, then either approve Make on the Revolut Business authorization page or paste the key the app gives you, and click Save. The same connection is then reused by all 6 modules. If the authorization is refused, the person who manages the company account is the right contact to grant access.
03Does Watch Draft Payments react in real time?
No. Watch Draft Payments is a scheduled trigger: Make checks Revolut Business on the scenario's schedule and collects the drafts created since the previous check. A new scenario is set to every 15 minutes by default. On the Free plan, 15 minutes is also the shortest interval; paid plans can go down to 1 minute. The app offers no instant trigger in Make, so a draft always shows up in your scenario at the next scheduled check, never at the very second it is created.
04What if a Revolut Business module is missing in Make?
It depends on what you need. The 6 modules only cover draft payments: watch, create, get, list and delete. Revolut Business has no Make an API Call module in Make, so you cannot reach other parts of the account through a custom request from this app. The directory gives no official limits either. If your case goes beyond drafts, look for another app in Make that already holds the data you need, or ask the team for help to design a workaround that fits your process.
05Should you use Make or n8n for Revolut Business?
It depends on your criteria, not on a winner. In Make, Revolut Business comes with 6 ready modules centered on draft payments, a guided editor and a connection set up once. The same app often has a node in n8n as well, so check what that node covers against your own need: the actions available, where your other tools already run and who will maintain the automation. Compare both on a real scenario, such as preparing drafts from approved requests, before you commit, and pick the one your team is comfortable keeping alive.
