Collected thoughts on card design (Part 1)

Yeah, the Mastercard logo is a sticker and my card arrived with a deep scratch already on it. The new non-embossed hot coral card is much nicer to look at in person I think. But kudos to Monzo because it arrived just 24 hours after ordering!

Love the Apple Pay version, I’ve not seen the back (cuz security) but I can imagine it’s pretty :face_vomiting:

Having said that, I am contemplating trading FlexPlus for Max.

A cinema pass/monthly ticket could also be a good trade off for railcard :eyes:

Perks card arrived today…

Under direct light the physical card has granny sheen!

More prominent here where it’s illuminated, but held in direct light it covers the entire card like this.

Comparison with regular card:

It’s much more subtle than on Apple Pay.

I have to say, and I appreciate you are of course paying for benefits and not the card, but the card is the least best thing about the refresh.

The quality of the previous plus/premium appears to be so much better than these. They feel…cheap

If I had to pick one I’d pick the original Hot Coral unfortunately, yeah.

Cries in White Metal.

I do, sort of, get why they binned the metal card off but then again no. Would’ve much preferred they kept the cards as is, and updated the perks. Seems like a load of wasted plastic.

The red Max card is lovely. The Perks hot-coral-not-hot seems like a real Friday afternoon design.

for example: Y U NO VERTICAL MONZO !!

Not overly impressed with Burnt Coral, as others have said it’s a shame about the sticker effect on the MC logo

And the print on the back is quite fuzzy in comparison

I don’t know how feasible this is but I would like monzo to bring out all different bright colours like the yellow, pink, green, and let people pay a small fee to get them but then allow all cards to be live on your account and market it as a choose a card to fit your outfit/mood

Bit like virtual cards where you choose a colour and link it to a pot but for physical cards
