✅ Monzo Plus: Virtual Card from a Pot

[katvoira]

You can definitely schedule pot transfers to and from your account, but I have so many I’d need to do that I only do it to add to my pots on payday

[betalogic]

Oh yeah I’d do a bulk add of say £100 to my pot on payday to cover subscriptions, then set the transfer for each on to come out a day before they seem to leave each month.

Not sure why I never knew that was a thing!

[Ordog]

haha enjoy

If I had multiple subscriptions that’s exactly what I’d do.

• Create a pot called subscriptions
• On payday set a scheduled deposit to put the total of all my subscriptions into a pot
• Then setup a scheduled withdrawal for each subscription the day before it is due

Job done

It would be nice to have the bills pot work for these but for now this works for me

[betalogic]

Cheers for that, I mean its not perfect but like you said it will do in the meantime!

This idea seems to have gone quiet, is it still being considered?

@psirus

is it still being considered?

Has anyone from Monzo ever said it was being considered?

[psirus]

The UI in the app suggested that it was going to happen I guess.

[Revels]

The most I saw was “this is an area we’d like to work more on” or something equally vague.

[betalogic]

As soon as I saw this I was like “meh, probably won’t happen then” lmfao

@Introducing the new Monzo Plus

as soon as you add a card to a pot it becomes a “payment account” and triggers a bunch of legal and compliance work.

With Starling you can now have a separate personal GBP account for £2 a month, so I guess you could shove all your bills in there and still have it as part of the Starling app

Or just set up a free account at any other bank for subscriptions

[richardcadman]

We have started working on this (full transparency that it’ll take quite a while, but we should ship something else cool before then)

[andrew_fishy (Biggest horse fanatic in Leeds)]

Maybe something Dark before than too

[Peter_G]

My intuition is telling me history, notes and categories for connected accounts.

Should I buy a lottery ticket this week?

Monzo Platinum confirmed!

[RobertGauld]

Thanks, not just for starting but for telling us too.

[psirus]

I am glad to hear that, thanks for the update.

[richardcadman]

I can officially confirm that it is not Monzo Platinum (or any kind of new tier)
