Pots need development love

[bluefroguk (Martyn Thomas)]

Hi

You cannot direct bill payments to a particular pot (via a dedicated virtual card number and bank account, because a DDs) and the fact the payments appear in the main feed (rather than within the pot screen)

This makes bill management hit and miss, so I have had to open a separate account with a different bank (cannot have two Monzo accounts) in order to manage my house bills properly

IOU/Payment Links to collect payments cannot be linked to a Pot – it needs to be manually managed to track IOUs etc.

I have to use Paypal Pools (when it was around) and apps like Collctiv to manage IOUs.

If feels like Pots has been lacking development love for a while, forcing me to move off-app to do basic functions.

Please can we:

• Assign a Pot for where the money will go when collected when seeing up a Payment Link
• Be able to hide/move transactions from the main Feed when they are Pot related (I don’t want to see a lot of ‘£100 from Bills pot’ ‘£100 Thames Water Bill’ transaction on the main feed – it becomes hard to track)
• Be able to pay from pot using DD/bank details (to prevent bill payments being missed and charging the main feed).

The underpowered Pots stops me from upgrading from Monzo Basic, these features will make it worth upgrading…until then I’m having to slowly move more and more off Monzo to alternatives in order to manage my money.

Thanks

It’s quite hard to understand what you mean at the top with the different quotes in places.

Be able to pay from pot using DD/bank details (to prevent bill payments being missed and charging the main feed).

You can already do this? But you mean keep it hidden from the main feed?

There’s been talk of this, personally I don’t want it hidden like virtual card transactions are, some are for it, some are against. There’s various topics on it.

Automatic Pot Payments

Hello. I am looking to set up a ‘side business’, which I will put all profit into a certain pot. I thought it would be a good idea to be able to automatically deposit money into a pot from a specific source. Thanks,

Hey there!

Some of your ideas have been suggested on these forums too! Please visit the relevant threads linked below to discuss and vote for them too!

Payment links into pots

I’d like the ability for payment links to automatically send the money to a specified pot. For example I’m collecting money for a leaving gift for a work colleague and I want all donations to go into a “Present for Barry” pot to keep it separate from my personal money.

Hiding Transactions and Statements

I honestly think that a feature that would allow you to hide or ‘delete’ transactions with a simple swipe to the right would be a great addition to Mondo, and possibly in the future the option to download and print statements of all transactions for a set period of time.
