Monzo Labs: Connected Credit Cards

[anon3439291]

Found it through help search and got it working! Thanks Michael for getting back to me!

This morning my TSB account is stuck on ‘We’re getting your balance’ and has been for about an hour.

Also my Barclaycard balance is incorrect (was showing correctly) despite it not changing in over a week.

Edit: it’s corrected itself now

Now this is out of labs should this topic not be closed in favour of this one?

Credit Card inside Monzo

Hello! This feature is rolling out to people slowly, which is why it’s not super obvious in-app or everyone yet. Right now it’s at about 5% of active users. As others have said, you can activate the feature via the Help Section. Hope this helps.

Anyway to request any other credit cards be added?

MBNA is a credit card I use and they are a huge provider. Would be great if they were added as a service provider. Their login system isn’t very complicated either so hopefully this wouldn’t be too tricky to add.

It requires the open banking API.

[Rockguy87]

They already ascribe to the open banking API as I have connected the cards to other online platforms and apps for analysis purposes.

So that’s why I’m hoping it isn’t a complicated exercise.

In your view or Monzos?

Here is the answer from Monzo that you couldn’t find:

Just to set expectations around support for other credit cards - until all credit card providers start providing Open Banking APIs (due May-Sep), this’ll probably be the list of the banks we support as we’ve now enabled all the credit card providers TrueLayer supports currently. We could potentially use a second aggregation service to connect to Virgin, MBNA, etc - but when everyone is due to provide APIs soon, it might be better for us to wait - rather than building more connections that’ll …

My guess is that you’re connected to your MBNA account via Screen Scraping in other apps, rather than via Open Banking APIs - Other screenscraping aggregators support MBNA - but no one is using Open Banking APIs for credit cards yet as they’er still the process of being built and tested.

[Rockguy87]

Fair enough. Sounds like it is in the process though and will be enabled in due course as and when available. Patience is all that is needed.

Could you use your phone’s location at the time of the transaction + the name of the merchant to search for the store and pinpoint a location that way?

[Feathers (MikeF)]

Even if that we’re possible, there’s a large assumption about the location of the phone there that may not be reliable.

Hello guys
Something happened with my Lloyds credit card.
Everything worked fine… but from today Monzo app shows my Lloyds current account balance instead of credit card ?

[SouthseaOne (Michael)]

Hi @Coral-Crew, perhaps we can get this merged into Monzo Labs: Connected Credit Cards so that @anon41842569 can see it alongside other observations? Thanks

[SouthseaOne (Michael)]

On this specific issue, I think someone else saw the same thing and reported it on the other thread

[robboadam (Adam Robertson)]

It says on your Lloyd’s app you have £1.48 available so that’s probably what Monzo is reading. Is it an error on Lloyd’s side?
