When can I set-up monzo.me?

[GrahamOld]

Hi, I’ve just applied for a monzo account.

The main reason is to be able to accept monzo payments from people who don’t want to use paypal, for whatever reason.

The app tells me that my card should arrive on Tuesday. My question is, do I have to wait until my card has arrived, before I can set up my monzo.me profile/account? I can’t see any way to currently proceed in the app.

Yes.

Your monzo.me username gets auto-generated when you activate the “Monzo With Friends” feature.

To do this, you’ll need access to the app, which happens after you activate your card

I wondered as much.

Thanks for such a speedy reply!
