Set Start of Month 9

[Aimeepopp (Amy)]

Will we be able to set our dates for our monthly targets? I want my budgets and targets to be in line with my pay day not the end of the month

Good evening!

This has been discussed a couple of times now, here’s the first for you

Start of month talked about here:
https://community.monzo.com/t/set-start-of-month/1144

Also worth a read about custom timeframes too:

Hope this helps!

Will this not be an automated process whereby Monzo will identify when your payday is, and set the beginning of your “spending” month then? Obviously, this would work much better once current accounts become available

Great guess the answer is yes it will be, at some point

Monthly/Weekly spend based on individuals pay day?

We will start to explore those concepts with our Target based budgeting system. We’ll let you define the period you want to budget for, so you could fix the date of your next payday. The really cool thing will happen once we’re a bank, at that point your salary will be actually paid into your Mondo account and thanks to that we should be able to adjust the whole experience (graphs, budgets, notifications) to that timeframe (without any input from the user)

I’ve actually just put a post in feedback for this as at first search couldn’t find a post for it. But i would really like this to happen, I think in the week I’ve used my Monzo card I haven’t found anything that I don’t like and this date thing is just something I’d like to be able to control
