Monzo.me Apple Pay

Hello

I’ve had a quick search and didn’t see anything obvious on this topic. I use the Monzo.me link feature quite a bit to request money from friends who don’t have a Monzo account. The user experience for those payees is quite poor in comparison to the similar feature Starling Bank offers. The payee has to enter their full bank card details every time.

Are there any plans to add Apple Pay feature to Monzo.me links to improve the user experience/speed of payment? This has been available using the similar Starling feature for a few years.

Thanks

It used to exist but it costs the bank money so they took it off.

People can add the card details to their native browser though which should generally pick up and allow simpler processing.

Fully agree with this, big backwards step ever since it’s been removed. Takes away from the ease of Monzo Me.

Interestingly, I don’t think Monzo.me is available at all in the US.

They do have debit card top ups though, but are quite heavily policed (only one debit card allowed and you need a selfie and chat session to change it).

Anything that makes life easier for end users gets a +1 from me so I would like to see Apple Pay as an option.

Revolut doesn’t accept Google pay either, other half tried and had to enter manually.

Also, I’d not be using a browser that I felt wouldn’t keep my information safe, let alone storing card details or not.

I’ve always added to safari or chrome and never once been subject to any fraud.

I wonder if Monzo wanted to slip @anon41613057 a few quid to come back to sort out the Pays? I’m not sure if he has much on at the moment :frowning::

(Context: he worked for Twitter).
