It would be great to be able to designate a certain pot that a certain company/payment comes from.

For example I have a Citymapper pass instead of oyster. The direct debit goes out weekly every Friday. It would be good to be able to add all of my money for travel into a travel pot and the payments go straight from there. That way I can see more clearly what money I have left and don’t have to worry about transferring the money back and fourth

You can already do this

For when the payment is not a DD or standing order you can use IFTTT to move money to or from a pot by the creditor name.

Monzo implementing this using Bills Pots can be voted for here:
