Does Monzo offer a joint account?

Hurrah! My lovely wife made it to the front of the queue and now has a shiny :mondo: card! We’re an old skool couple with joint finances.

Joint Accounts 1 & Real-time Authorisations

Thanks @gavin - cool suggestion. Linked / joint / family accounts is definitely on the roadmap, although some way down the line.

But certainly letting parents set spending rules for their kids is something we’ll look at in future.
