Hi everyone,
I’m looking for a way to manually map out future expenses directly within a Pot, without needing an active merchant subscription or an external bank account to schedule a transfer to.
My thoughts
I would love an option inside a Pot to “Add Planned Expense” with fields such as
- Label
- Amount
- Specific future date
- Move money to main account toggle
The planned payment would show up as a greyed-out, upcoming event inside that Pot’s history, visually locking that money down and also ideally showing a second balance view with the planned payment subtracted.
Example
You are booking a hotel and want to pay only shortly before the visit or when you are at the accommodation. You have a pot for the holiday money to use. When making the booking, in Monzo I then want to add the planned payment for the date where the payment is due / arrival at the hotel in the holiday pot. The pot then sets that money aside, shows me the current balance and the balance after the planned future payment.
In addition, I can toggle for the planned amount to be moved in to the current account for the set date so that I can make the payment from the current account without manually moving the money from the pot.
Additional notes
Integration of these planned/ear-marked payments into trends
Hope that makes sense ![]()
Thanks
