We're working on a new look for the Monzo app

I’ve been so happy without ‘spent today’ given it didn’t make sense half the time.

I.e. if I make a £10 transaction but bill split half of it, I have only spent £5 today. My category of whatever it was from will only be affected by £5 and my balance will only be £5 lower. Yet previously Monzo would still say ‘£10 spent today’ which is incorrect however you look at it.

If it comes back I’d really love if this could be fixed

I think an Income category would solve this issue.

Anything categorised as Income would not be included in the Spent Today figure and all incoming payments assigned to other categories could then be deducted from that category’s budget and also from Spent Today, which would be useful for stuff like refunds or people paying you back for things.

Tag payments as salary

I think the best way to solve this would be to have a Salary or Income category. A Salary/Income category would allow all incoming payments assigned to other categories to be deducted from that category’s budget, which would be useful for stuff like refunds or people paying you back for things. This would allow for better budgeting and also solve an issue which loads of people have brought up before: https://community.monzo.com/t/include-bank-transfers-in-budget-categories/57383?u=awjdean N…
