[Ideastoyou (NathanB)]

Be great to see monzo have like a contactless key fob and other cool ways to pay with I know other online banks have this and looking at ways to make banking more interesting and easy for there customers what are your thoughts?

Contactless watch strap could be interesting

[Revels]

I have a watch and phone that I can pay with and they have additional security. My card is actually the least secure as it requires no additional security to pay.

Adding a keyfob or something just seems like a security nightmare.

Gimmicks. Nothing more.

Pay with your phone if you want cool, interesting - and above all, secure.

A contactless frankfurter would be cool and also delicious

Badger Pay;

Garmin Pay: When will I be able to buy oat milk with my watch?

Badger Pay. Badgers will have NFC chips implanted just under the skin on their necks and customers will be able to conveniently tap their Badger to pay for goods and services. We can leave our contactless cards and phones at home, just remember to take your Badger with you.

Here’s a key-ring version;

I was going to start using my phone to pay but after receiving my sexy new Hot Coral card I can’t wait to flash it about the place. Am I sad?

I first got a Monzo account three years ago purely because I kept seeing customers using the cards and I had FOMO.

So maybe it’s sad but you’re not alone!

A bit

I agree, it would be quite insecure and possibly easy to skim, useless too as all smart watches have contactless pay.
