Security is at the heart of what we do

The safety of your account, money and data is our number one priority

We work to protect you from identity fraud when you join Monese. So that we know it’s really you, we ask for a government-issued ID featuring your photo, plus a short video of yourself.

Single-phone access

You can only sign in to your account from one mobile device at a time, stopping anyone else from having access to your money. To authorise a new device, we’ll ask you to go through a secure multi-factor authentication process.

Lock and unlock your card

If you lose your card, you can block your card in-app instantly to stop anyone else from using it.
