Hi everybody,
Really quick sneak peek of something I think many of you will love. A quick link to the amazing Travelling with Monzo wikis baked right inside the “Welcome abroad” message so you can read it right away.
This is just a first step to make all this great content available to more Monzonauts. As always, I’d love any feedback
Thanks!
Hugo

Might be useful to have some way of getting to it before you go abroad?

Yeah, I think that’d be version 2
We’re revamping the FAQ and other informational stuff so we will probably make this available from there too.

Hi @hugo - looks good. I particularly like the double ~ symbol as this keeps the top section nice and clean. Could an approximate sum in local currency also appear next to the balance when overseas? e.g.
£156.23 ~ €185

FYI Hugo’s answered that here -
I’m always on the fence about doing that. As balances get bigger we could be in a situation where we tell you that your balance is 1,000€, then you buy a one-grand laptop and two days later (when the transaction settles) the exchange rate has changed a bit and it actually was 1,020€, so now your balance is -20€. It feels somehow “wrong” if you know what I mean

Suggestion - could the welcome screen also give info about which ATM’s charge/don’t charge in the relevant country?
