Thatās the feature Revolut have isnāt it? Does it leave your balance ending with 00 because it would annoy me too much if it didnāt
You can move an arbitrary amount?
So itās not a round up then?

You can use multipliers of the round up e.g 2x, 10x etc. Canāt remember all the multipliers as itās not a feature I use.

It shows the actual money spent at the merchant, with a round up icon next to it. The amount saved is then listed in the transaction details. Thatās exactly how I wish Monzo did this.

I really like the way they implement it, but my one tweak would be to see the round up amount also included (smaller/grey text or something). Especially as Starling give you the option to multiply the round-up.

I like having a clear view of the actual amount spend. I donāt like the fact you have to go into the details to see the roundup amount.
In my ideal world both amounts are clear in the feed. Ideally the actual amount prominent, and then in superscript below, the amount including roundup. In broadest terms, something like this:
TRANSACTION TOTAL: Ā£11.59
TOTAL INC ROUNDUP: Ā£12.00
TRANSACTION TOTAL: Ā£2.30
TOTAL INC ROUNDUP: Ā£3.00

I find it interesting that Starling seem to be on a roll again, even releasing some features they previously said werenāt something they thought would be useful (including Round Ups).
Without getting into the community situation again, it does make me wonder whether ditching this has helped them focus or whether theyāre just in another cycle of rapid development which will be followed by another slow period.
I honestly thought losing the community would diminish my interest in them going forward, but they continue to offer a āsuperiorā approach compared to some of the other Fintechs for me (namely being an actual bank and providing related core functionality).
Interesting times.

This is a brilliant feature from Starling, which I wish Monzo would implement.
Especially useful if youāre on a trip or about to go somewhere with no phone signal and loose your card.

Yeah, granularity of card controls is my favourite over on the Christmas list

Possibly. This is something we have the technical capability to do but itās not exposed anywhere (except for instant Apple Pay and Google Pay on signup).
Iāve been thinking about ways of improving our mobile wallet integrations. Iāll make a separate thread for this when I finish my current work on physical cards.

Any clues to what this work is? 
Just a general revision of the chip profile to improve compatibility, security, and satisfy new requirements. Weāre adding a new card manufacturer to our pool and that requires a round of certification of the new cards so weāre taking the opportunity to update the chip settings too.
Sorry itās not too exciting.
