Hey everybody!
@anon77964053, @AAllport and I are working on a new project with the objective of simplifying (and completely automating, in some cases) common things people do with their money. Whether that’s tracking in YNAB, better ways to save money, or simplifying Delay Repay for trains.
Some people may have seen the original thread but that got a little sidetracked with everybody wanting the “Salary Sweep Up” feature - this is just one idea from a whole list that we’d love to share with you!
The idea revolves around a marketplace of custom workflows - these can be triggered automatically based on a number of triggers or manually. We want to encourage people to create their own using our easy-to-use builder, and to share them with friends within the community. We’ll also be publishing a number ourselves which you can use, or even modify to make your own!
People may have also seen the work I’ve done on Unfurler which brings digital receipts into your Monzo app! This is something that has been working for a couple of months for nearly 90 users… but we can do much better.
We want to hear this in the same breath as IFTTT or Zapier, but focussing in on finances and relevant services. This won’t be just for Monzo users either, we’re already looking at other banks too!
Now we already have a big list of ideas - but we’d like to hear any ideas anybody else has! Want monzo.me links to point at a pot? Sure! Want transactions from Greggs to come out of a pot? Why not! Want to save £3 when you don’t buy your daily coffee? Yes, we can!
We’ve set up a Google form which you can register your interest in, and we’ll let you know as soon as we’re ready for testers. We’re looking at targeting web first with a simple portal - but mobile apps will be coming quickly after to give you the easiest experience on the go!
Looking forward to the discussion!
