Hello!!
I’m going to work in the US for the 2019 summer and to get paid, they ask for a routing/transit number. I want to use my Monzo card but where would I find this routing/transit number??
Thank you!
Receiving international payments with Monzo is not yet reliable, you probably shouldn’t use it for salary: https://monzo.com/blog/2018/07/24/receiving-international-payments/
I think the recommended fintech option is a Transferwise Borderless account, or you could get it sent to another normal bank account.

I feel they are asking for a US bank account not a UK bank account otherwise they’d possibly be asking for a IBAN. You need a US bank account or use Transferwise borderless account as suggested which includes the US bank details such as:
Wire transfer number.
Routing number.
Account number.
I would clarify this with the company paying you.
Monzo also doesn’t reliably receive international transfers right now. They are working on it.
What @Chapuys said is correct. They are asking for your US bank details. You can get one by using Transferwise Borderless if you only need to receive and spend money on a card. Otherwise, I think you might need to wait till you get there.
Good Luck.
