I suppose they are saying that the money you earn in interest is “on top of” the money in the pot and therefore money on your money - Whilst a tad jarring I think it goes along with how Monzo are trying to reduce the reading age of its documents and general feel. Interest for those not in the know can be quite a confusing thing.
Considering the average reading age of the UK is 12 and national publications readership age is lower than that (The Sun is 9) it makes sense to ensure things come across properly.
Of course - but you have to account for the lowest common denominator - everyone can have use of a bank account and savings pots - so ensuring the language is clear is crucial (not to mention a regulatory requirement).
But more to your point - it is very funny to see the reading ages!
I also don’t see how “Money on money” is more simple than “Money from money”.

In this case of why swap the word ‘interest’ with ‘money’ in the title rather than the on/from. But I’ve seen cases in their copywriting where they have taken the idea of simplifying to the extent it becomes harder to read and understand. Interest is how the additional money is going to be achieved rather than doing say an odd job for them.
