Anyone here use Monzo to pay or get paid by teammates?

I do.
I used to post the monzo.me link and my bank account details into the group messenger along with a list of people who hadnāt paid from previous weeks.
I stopped using the monzo.me link because people were saying that it wasnāt working for them so stuck to sharing bank details from my app each week, which I have no problem with. Half the team have Monzo now so some just make a Ā£5 payment each week, the others I assume have my bank details saved in their own banking app and make the payment from there.
The Bill Splitting function only works for me if everyone is on Monzo and then I would use it.
I donāt have the time or inclination to send a separate link to each person who doesnāt have Monzo.
Also, how we work it is that the game costs Ā£25 but everyone pays a fiver and I put my Ā£5 into a pot which goes towards buying a round after a game when itās built up. So I couldnāt use bill splitting as we donāt pay the exact amount (Ā£30 instead of Ā£25).
āWith Monzo, your team mates donāt need to message you to say theyāve paidā - those that donāt have instant notifications with their bank always do! And I message back saying I know haha
But I do have to cross names of my hit list within the messenger group every week.
In terms of my budgeting, I just exclude the online payment to the league from my summary.

Nice post 
Iāve not had a perfect opportunity to use a Shared Tab yet 
but they look pretty cool 
For the sports I play, we just alternate who pays (despite all being Monzo users 
) it seems easier to do this as itās a small booking fee for a court

I play badminton 
and a bit of table-tennis 
Definitely not a āteamā, as such, but just regularly with friends When itās only Ā£5-Ā£10/hr (depending on the sport) it just gets paid by a different person each week, if it was renting an entire pitch for an hour and there were half a dozen of us, Iād definitely use bill splitting but it would almost feel weird splitting a relatively small transaction with a small handful of people

Youāll have to come in for a game. Table tennis is a pretty serious pastime in the Monzo office.

Can you create an account in the name of your football team on top of a personal account? (So people pay to the team not oneās personal account)
Unfortunately no
Possibly in the future as a business account
