One great feature on N26 was being able to select a transaction and then have that same amount repaid from a pot of your choice. The “notes” section of the pot withdrawal would contain the details of the transaction used.

Could something similar be implemented here please?

If you have a search, this, along with probably a dozen improvements to pots have been mentioned multiple times.

There is work on-going with pots, so fingers crossed some of them are implemented.

> Hi, It would be great if when selecting a transaction I could “assign” it to a pot. Say for instance I have a pot for holidays, one for bills, one for eating out etc. I go out for dinner and pay on my card and then when I assign that transaction to the ‘eating out’ account it removes that amount from that pot and transfers it into my main account. I know I can quite easily do this myself manually each time, but having this convenient shortcut would be great. Thanks.

> Can’t find anything on this and it can’t just be me that thinks this makes sense. When I buy something I would like to click on the payment amount and simply have a 1 click option to take that amount from a Pot of my choice. At the moment I have to memorize the amount, go into the required Pot and withdraw that amount manually back into my main account Pot. Am I missing something??

Pots are great, but the more you use them, the more features you want.

@AlanDoe suggest closing this topic in favour of those above to avoid splitting votes

(Incidentally I think this sort of thing was one of the instances when CC previously would/could a topic without any controversy)
