Hi,

Can you incorporate weekly budgeting/spending targets as opposed to just monthly please as it doesn’t appear to be an option (at least on my app)?

Thanks.

Matt

Hi Matt!

I’ve moved your post here, as there’s a preview of the solution that Monzo are working on towards the topic of the thread.

It’s sounding like this could be ready as soon as the current accounts launch :tada:

Perfect thanks.

Kind Regards,

Matt

The monthly target feature is a brilliant idea but it would be nice if you could choose a weekly target as well

Hello!

I’m new to Monzo and loving it so far. One question I do have is: would it be possible to customise the dates of the target on the app?

The reason I’m asking is because I get paid on the 15th of each month so tracking my spending is a bit of a pain as it isn’t as straight forward as starting at the beginning of the month, I pay in my spends on the 15th. Is this something that is possible for you guys to do?

Monzo is such a great concept and I am sure that lots of people would benefit from being able to set their own target dates!

Cheers guys,
Josh

They have plans to let you do this. Change your pay day date to a specific date like yours, or even the timeframe, like every 4 four weeks instead of monthly :slight_smile: We just have to wait a little first, but it’s definitely in the pipeline!

You’d think so wouldn’t you…until you notice this thread was started over a year ago :frowning:

Come on Monzo!

This is exactly what I would ask for - especially during a tough financial month. Having the option to keep an eye on your daily and weekly spending are the very tools you need to keep within your overall monthly sending targets. Thanks Lena!

Hey all :wave:

Just an FYI to let you know that we’ve added Custom start dates for Targets/Breakdowns to Near Term on our Product Roadmap.

Hopefully we’ll have more to share soon :slightly_smiling_face:

The spending tracking is possibly one of my favourite features of the app. However I’ve found myself avoiding it entirely because it just doesn’t work around my circumstances the way I’d like.

My salary comes in on the 28th of each month. I pay all my bills the day after. By the time the 1st of each month comes round, the tracker assumes I have no money for all the budgeted outgoings for the rest of the month. Either that, or it assumes I’ve dramatically gone over my limits before the month is over.

It’d be really handy if I could define when my spending month begins. The core functionality remains the same, but the spending is tracked relative to the customised start date. Either that or I just need to get batter at managing my outgoings :slight_smile:

This is a feature already in the works for the next few months. :eyes:

Hi Mark :wave: - moved your post here in line with the current discussions on this. Richard from Monzo has said (post above yours) that’s it’s on the Near Term plan on the roadmap so hopefully soon! :raised_hands:

Hi I’m new to the community but have had monzo for just under a year now. Its been great and I’ve just changed over to a current account! But I haven’t seen targets available on my android app yet. Is this due soon for android? It sounds really helpful and something I’d definitely be keen to use!

Is this any closer to becoming a reality? I swear I’ve seen “we’re working on it, more to show you soon” for about a year :frowning:

If it’s not here within 3 months, I’ll eat my Monzo card :handshake:

(Still just a guess.)

Here’s the latest update on the design process.

Here’s the monthly blog post which includes a pretty big hint that it’s going to be ready :soon:

Here’s the card on the roadmap.
