Been seeing charity pots in the API for some time now so super glad to see our first actual screenshots of it in action!
Initially some of my questions would be:
-
What is the list of supported charities, and will there be an option somewhere to choose your own registered charity?
- I’d love to be able to support local and smaller charities who are unlikely to be in a shortlist like this.
- Possibly some mechanism for community suggestions for extra charities?
-
Is gift aid automatically handled by Monzo and giving that little extra to charity?
-
Is Monzo looking to make a profit off of this implementation? Maybe in a similar vein to the % of Gift Aid mentioned here: Gift Aid on contactless donations - If so, what amount?
-
Not something for the MVP solution, but I’d love to get an option to select multiple charities and have an equal split sent to each of them at the end of the month! (Especially as I sense some people will use round ups, which can only be on one pot)
-
Is the donation attributed to the person, or does Monzo collate all the funds of everybody donating to X and send as one packet “from Monzo”?
Looking forward to seeing how this proceeds!
