Hello everyone! ![]()
It’s the moment everyone* has been waiting for…
The 2025 Big Poll!
We’ve done a few of these before - they’re our opportunity to set out our wish list and say what we’d like to see from Monzo in 2025 and beyond…
…and this time it’s Monzo Sanctioned! ![]()
That means that I’ve worked with @AlanDoe to put this together
but sadly it still doesn’t mean that the top votes necessarily get implemented. No, not even if it’s Badger Pay ![]()
And no, I (still) don’t work for Monzo - so whilst Monzo endorsed this is still community run!
This time, three polls for your voting delight…
- On new Monzo products or features
- On improvements or polish to existing products or features
- New for 2025 - Community suggestions!
A bit about methodology: I’ve pulled ideas from the poll suggestions topic, Alan’s What Do You Want to see? thread, popular ideas topics, forum conversation and a few curve-balls of my own!
If there’s something you really want included in the next round, create a topic in Feedback & Ideas and get voting on it there!

For new readers, David tears down the Monzo app and sometimes finds “interesting” new graphics or hints at new features. As a courtesy to Monzo, he redacts these ahead of big launches… We I jokingly call these super injunctions…
