Sneak Peek : Pick a card, any card! (Monzo Plus)

Oh I’m definitly going to update the background of my pots images with these new colours!

Ohh, that light blue looks a lot nicer than the photo at the top of this thread. Closer to the digital mockup. Like it a lot.

People on the internet makes leaps in logic that only they can see… :raised_hands:

Clearly! like yes I suppose they will all eventually end up in landfill but I don’t think Monzo is the company that should be being targeted!

The midnight blue looks fabulous but I doubt I’ll sign up - I’ve not even requested my Investor Card yet and still use the one that isn’t coral core and has the big unsightly chip :rofl::rofl:

I haven’t asked for mine(Investors) as I do think its a waste- I don’t drive so its not like i can use it to scrape ice off the windscreen(the old one).
Its a pity that they patched the investor bug as I thought a digital investors card made sense.(in terms of the environment etc) but I also understand why they reverted it.

How does one get on this trial?

Yeah it is a shame that they can’t just put the “Investor” on the Apple Pay Card and the Account Card (all digital) without having to request the new card (even then I don’t think the Account Card will change).

Also seems a shame to not be able to have Investor on the Plus Cards but again can totally understand why that decision has been made.

Isn’t there the issue though of which “ranks” higher? Like I would prefer to have my investor card over my Monzo plus card even if I had Monzo Plus

Yeah definitely it would be a bit of a nightmare where the cards look like they just have loads of stickers on them “joint account” “investor” “plus” - I just know I’d love Midnight Sky (or whatever it is called) with “Investor” on it as well - A man can dream…

Right now, I think the Starling business card is one of, if not the, nicest looking cards around.

Great colour, simple, elegant (not massively fussed about portrait/landscape).

I’m sure Monzo could do more than just re hash the same (boring) card design in different colours.

I get what you mean and I think if they are going to do something with the cards they should be doing more than just a colour re-has (although I stand by the navy card being lovely) because the colour (Hot Coral) was what made Monzo stand-out both figuratively and literally from the crowd.

I don’t really “get” the whole landscape portrait thing but I think Monzo could be doing a little more with their cards seeing as it is such a brand identifier.

What does the Starling Business card look like?

EDIT: just googled - it’s nice for sure, but I’m not head over heels for it.

I love the midnight blue. Looks beautiful.

I’m also thoroughly amused by the outrage on twitter of “how dare you have 16 cards”.

It’d be great if you’d consider removing the embossed numbers/writing and perhaps moving them to the back of the card or making them app only. Cards without text last longer and fit better in the wallet.

This and a metal card which I can keep for years. With that approach, Monzo could update the number and CVV every year for added security and just show them in the app.

I seem to have found some matching icons for the new colourful cards :wink:

Will there be a Monzo Plus Investor card?

I believe there will be one day but there isn’t one yet :yum: nor is there an ETA :eyes:

It’d be cool to see a mockup of this! :grin: Hopefully it’s not too cluttered :see_no_evil:

The icons look lovely, but do they match? I see red, blue and white, not hot coral, midnight sky and whatever the neon blue one’s called!

I’m thinking maybe a discreet :rocket: icon in the corner of the Monzo Plus cards, rather than the “investor” logotype?
