When requesting money, can we have the option to pay off a bit at a time?

[James7]

I’m a new convert to Monzo and I absolutely love it so far! Me and my partner have a joint account and it saves so much hassle trying to figure out who owes what.

One thing though, say I pay £90 for something… And I request my partner pay me £45, I can only see the option to pay the full amount of £45 instead can we have a way to pay it back gradually?

Hi James,

Not a feature I’ve used but are you refering to ‘Split the Bill’? If so i think this has been requested before…

Sounds similar to this suggestion but with Bill Splits and Money Requests:

Partially settle a Shared Tab

It would be nice to be able to pay a tab only partially if the amount of money in the account is not enough to pay it 100%. I found myself in a position when I want to repay immediately part of it but I can (example shared monthly mortgage ) but I don’t need to repay the rest. We’d love to use the shared tab but It cannot work like that. Could it be useful? We could use the “request money” feature but we want to keet track of all transactions in the shared tab, it is easier.
