Introducing the new Monzo Plus

[Revels]

I don’t think the internet is for you.

Then again, I appreciate that at 39 I am older than the average Monzo customer and probably have very different views on this.

I’m 40 so I don’t think it’s an age thing

[Ordog]

Has Monzo ever said what age their average customer is?

[Rat_au_van (Em)]

I saw something last year that said 33 (I think)

@albertmonzo - there’s a lot of points being made in this thread about other FinTechs who “sell the [aggregate] data” and that is how they make money.

Implying that Monzo do not specifically sell data - but Monzo are not explicitly saying this.

I think it would go a long way to transparency for Monzo to state this openly, or include it in t’s and c’s; given the feeling of this message is; “When you buy our premium account, your data won’t be sold like others”.

Signed up this morning. Great work, really like the direction and overall theme. As many of echoed in this thread, looking forward to seeing how you approach this for joint accounts too.

One small bit of feedback: It would be great to have the ability to hide categories that I’m no longer using. I’ve recreated some of the standard categories so they’re all using the gradients!

Hi Albert i think ive asked this now 3 times in this thread and its fell on deaf ears each time.

I dont have a problem paying to see other accounts but only if it shows ALL my main accounts otherwise its pretty pointless for me personally.

What is the plan or is there a plan to add additional banks to the current list?

@ndrw

The Getting Started cards won’t go away. I got the message loud and clear about boosted roundups but I don’t want to partake. I’d like an option to dismiss the big card encouraging me to do so

They’ve said that they’ll look into that and will see how they can make the area better (something like that anyway )

Edit: Found it

Introducing the new Monzo Plus

Thanks for the feedback, @StuartL. We looked into this, and know that it’s something customers want. I can see how this would make them even more valuable, and probably fit nicely with your budgeting method. I think @tjvr mentioned this earlier in our team channel. Good idea! But they’re so beautiful! Ha. No, it’s a good shout. Hopefully we can make this space more intuitive and helpful over time.

This was already possible with IFTTT integration, I don’t know why they are marketing it as a new paid feature?

[Rat_au_van (Em)]

How do I look at the new round up options?

Everything else on the plus list takes me to an info page but that option does nothing

[Rat_au_van (Em)]

It does say ‘when we add more we will let you know’ under the bank list

[Modo (Charlie)]

If you click edit on your pot it gives you new options

[nathanthomson8 (Nathan)]

Theyd be better off with a then because thats no good to anyone

[Rat_au_van (Em)]

Oooh so it does

I blame my headache that I didn’t think of that

Thank you

[elobarnes (Edwin Barnes)]

PLEASE DO THIS it would be amazing for expenses - I hate having expenses mess up my spending history so having a virtual card I could add to google pay that would take money straight from an expenses pot would be incredible

[robinklein]

Thanks.
How about Coutts? Amex?

The IFTTT variatnt wouldn’t ever update when you change the data.

Nor would it capture non card transactions. IFTTT didn’t show a complete picture, while this variant does.

[Addzy]

I’d hazard a guess very very few Monzo customers are Coutts customers so that’s probably not very likely, however, AMEX i’d say has a very strong possibility

I’m getting a bug on a connected account - one of 3 Santander accounts, when refreshing, the “Santander” heading dissapears.

Not sure if others get this or it is known.
