So then… There’s an upcoming Monzo feature!
We know it’s coming tomorrow (Tuesday 24th) and we have a few clues from @anon50039658 But who knows what it could be!
In case you’ve missed them, here’s the clues so far

Based on all of these tweets, share what you think’s coming up in the comments below
I’ll also stick a poll of some options I think it could be
Android Pay
Apple Pay
Both Android & Apple Pay
Pots
International Payments
Something crazy we’ve not thought of yet!

Almost certainly android pay.
Will be very surprised if it’s apple pay.

Nobody thinking overdrafts?

“This new feature makes it even easier to buy the things you want. ”
Nope, either type of pay I reckon

Easier to buy the things you want
Not available for everyone
But…
Doesn’t require an app update
All but that last one do match your suggestion But us Android folk don’t have it in the app yet and there’s already a preview on iOS
Only 24hrs left before we know for sure though
Would monzo really be encouraging people to go into overdraft to buy ‘the things they want’?

Well… they need to make a profit somehow
(Kidding! I doubt Monzo would want that )

Developer on Slack revealed he wasn’t involved in the testing and he works on payments.
I think it might be Current Account Switching

I was thinking it might be some broader rollout of their “spread the cost” product. They were testing it months ago so you’d think by now they might have decided on how it would work and could offer it more generally.

It’s a bluff… or a double bluff

I think I just voted out of sheer hope
I’m so excited for pots (the s on the end is important here).

Pots will definitely require an app update so it can’t be that.

Its 1000% Android Pay. Chimes with previous comments that android will get some things first.
