Hopefully some work for joint pots also ties into work for shared pots. I know shared pots would be very useful for a few people I know.
It should also cover off any sinarios where people want to share money like flatmates for general spends but don’t want the commitment of a joint account.
Joint accounts are a great product and have allowed us to switch over to Monzo for all current account activity. Will keep an eye out for any further developments!
I hadn’t read enough before opening a joint account, so was a bit surprised to find that pots aren’t available.
Would love to know what the challenges are, or what aspects need to be figured out before they can be launched. Obviously shared pots has a whole load of questions surrounding it - but I’d expect pots on a joint account would be simpler to implement, because the two people just have equal access to them in the same way they do all the other features.
You think with how quickly joint account functionality was created joint pots wouldn’t be far behind it but shame there hasn’t been any information provided on this
I think people are forgetting that Joint Accounts is in BETA so it obviously isn’t going to have everything.
Here is a definition of beta:
A beta version of a program, game etc is an unfinished version released to either the public or a select few or whoever signs up to beta test it for bugs or glitches
If you get frustrated by the lack of features then don’t sign up for beta on things. Wait until its full release. :
That’s effectively what I was going to say but better. Given that this is pre-release stuff and effectively under test I wouldn’t personally be looking for news on additional features until they’ve formally been released.

Exactly. Except that with Monzo, it likely won’t be finished then either.
Wise words and on the anniversary of your join date too

Maybe “ready for release” would be a better term.
For me, Monzo isn’t a fully functioning current account yet. There are many services that free current accounts with high street banks offer, which Monzo doesn’t. The ones which I would miss are reliable incoming international transfers, 3D security, and universal card acceptance (by which I mean that the card is accepted everywhere that Mastercard is accepted).
