We’re testing a new referral reward 🧪✨

Hi everyone! :wave:

I’m Lisa, part of the Monzo product marketing crew. I work on bringing more people to Monzo through referrals. :tada:
Over the next few weeks, we’re experimenting to see if different rewards inspire more of you to bring your friends to Monzo. A randomly selected group of users will join this little adventure, so some of you might spot a new referral offer featuring a mystery reward of up to £50! :sparkles:


Here’s how it works: You can refer friends whether you’re in the experiment or not. But if you are in the experiment, you and the friends you refer can earn a mystery reward of £10, £20 or £50. They just have to sign up and complete their first payment with Monzo. :money_with_wings:

We’re just testing the waters, so we might tweak or end the experiment at any time. If you get a chance to try it, let us know what you think.

Stay tuned! :rocket:

This plays out terribly for revolut; everyone gets £10.

Just fix it for something worthwhile.

£50 per referral sounds good.

Seconded. I only refer on Revolut when it’s NOT a mystery amount.

I certainly will, none of my friends are on Monzo except me looking forward to this.

I don’t refer to monzo cuz it’s embarrassing.

I get £5 you get £5. :confounded:

£50 split between two is a night/meal out for many.

Family? Workmates? And failing that - Reddit strangers…

Family?

I’ve always been cautious on this, as that stranger could carry out alsorts of fraud and come back as a link to you at the bank and have your account closed too.

Maybe that’s me and my fraud head though, I’d like to think the majority have been fine.

What’s your ratio of £10, £20 & £50 going to be?

Persuade your enemies to use (and go full) Monzo

Do you already have a paid plan yourself? I just got the notification too but no mention of the bonus 30.

Just checked and I am in the experiment… shame I don’t have anyone to refer.

“How it works” button shows this

Percentages show as:
1% of customers: £50
5% of customers: £20
94% of customers: £10

I’ve still got the Neon Ticket thingy which allows parents to jump the queue for child accounts.

I guess I’m not in the ‘experiment’.

Very much like revolut.

I think it’s probably both.

You always have a 1 in 100 chance of getting £50. By the end of it 1% of people should have got £50. They can’t say “Soz, nobody was lucky enough to get £50”

Likewise with the Neon Ticket, but for me it says the referral bonus is £10 each - pretty sure it was £5 before.

I’ve had a tenner for a while.

I literally just got a friend signing up on the 12th before this trial and is still in progress. :sob:

Won’t get even a tenner then.

I’ve been getting a tenner for a while. Think it’s related to the Child accounts - neon ticket.

I’ve had the £10 referral a while, no Child accounts.

A/B stuff.
