I signed up to the forum just now specifically to ask for this. My friends also agreed it would be a great idea.
They mentioned it would be great for saving for things such as holidays - being able to set money aside.
I personally want it for tax reasons. I’m self employed and fill out a tax assessment at the end of the year, at which point I’m told how much tax I owe. I’d love to be able to easily stick 20% of any of my job earnings into a virtual pot so I know that it’s not for me to spend, and will go to the tax man at the end of the year.
I feel Monzo is successful because of it’s vastly superior app, so this feels like a “must have” feature as it seems like it’d be quite simple to do! Though I was a bit sad to see that this thread started in Jan 2016 - almost 2018 now and this feature isn’t in yet?!
Pots were introduced last Monday on iOS and will be appearing at the start of next week on Android.
Pots are here! A simple way to set money aside, within your main Monzo account
These operate as a stand-alone means of segregating funds but will also form the basis (from a UI standpoint) of any future third party savings account integration.
