Received money from Revolut

I've received a payment for a item I sold.
Payment has been made from a revolut account (buyer is in the eu) into my UK bank account.

I'm presuming this is just as safe for a seller as a regular bank transfer?

Never heard of revolout before but it seems genuine, just thought I'd check for horror stories on here first!

    I had a Revolut pre-pay card, it had good exchange rates when buying in euro's.  I would topup a little more than the
    purchase amount and assumed it was just the same as any card purchase to the seller.

    Should be fairly safe they did insist on photo ID and you had to put the funds in first.

    Is this an eBay transaction?
