We're with you on the go (Global)

Loren

It’s been one of the most requested features from you and it’s finally here – we’ve officially launched dark mode to protect your tired eyes while using your Monese app! But that’s not all we’ve been up to: to personalise your app experience, you can now choose from up to 6 custom new app icons to give your app’s look some flare! 

![Comments V2](//images.contentful.com/96dxy75w1gjr/5RVRhltnQxCErjoZX3Zb0p/401a30f5992478fd3b814783a4043942/Comments_V2.png)

Read on to learn about all the ways you can now tailor and use the Monese app as you like. 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

## Go dark
![Dark Mode](//images.contentful.com/96dxy75w1gjr/1sJWUHT4QzYGMOYcSxGdCF/b6d4fffdba4517dc9fd70ba2098c1920/Dark_Mode.gif)
Not only is dark mode easier on the eyes, but it also saves on battery life – and it’s just plain cool-looking! If your phone’s system is already in a dark-themed setting, then the next time you launch your Monese app, you’ll automatically be in dark mode! Otherwise, follow a couple of simple steps to get started with dark mode in-app: 

__Step 1:__ Open your Settings and tap on ‘App appearance’ 

__Step 2:__ Tap on ‘Dark mode’ and choose your new dark theme 

Enjoy! 🥷

## Choose your app icon
![App Icons](//images.contentful.com/96dxy75w1gjr/7cDjdzk6VEk16fHb5sig6e/192ef674076cf331445105014f066881/App_Icons.png)
Under ‘App appearance’, you’ll also see an option to test out our other new feature: our brand new app icons! You can have some fun with our hologram version or try us out in gold. Whatever your mood is, you can change it up any time!  

## Customise your home screen
![New home screen - How-To-Rearrange-Widgets (2)](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/4V8gFZk8oxHWHLtEsBaqSu/0f234601fda422a3a258322a804046c3/How-To-Rearrange-Widgets__2_.gif)

ICYMI: you can also modify your [home screen](https://monese.com/blog/new-home-screen "Welcome to your new home screen") to your liking and decide exactly which widgets you want to see and in what order. And if you’ve got pots set up, you can choose to see all the money you have in your pots, right next to your account balance. Easily toggle this off from the ‘Customise’ screen, and you can still set up a widget that shows you a breakdown of how much is in each of your pots.

## Other cool features you might have forgotten
![Private-Mode](//images.contentful.com/96dxy75w1gjr/1885E1jL8lW4uwTpVEmcL7/bc8dba20d7ebdcc2d975287a71ea775d/Private-Mode.gif)

Your Monese app is filled with tons of neat features you may not be making use of, so we thought we’d take this time to remind you of all the other great things you can do with your app: 
- Give your phone a shake to trigger privacy mode – keep your balance and transactions out of sight when in public  
- Easily get a PDF statement for a single transaction, straight from your app 
- Leave your physical card in your wallet and pay using your [virtual card](https://monese.com/blog/create-virtual-card "Virtual card") when shopping both in-store or online 

<br/><br/>

Make sure your app is up to date with our latest version so you aren’t missing out on any of these awesome features! We’re always keen on hearing your feedback or any ideas you might have on ways to improve your app experience. Leave us your comments on [Facebook](https://facebook.com/MyMonese "Monese on Facebook"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/Monese "Monese on Twitter"), [Instagram](https://instagram.com/monese "Monese on Instagram") or email us at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com) – let us know how you’re liking dark mode! 🖤

Customise your app with dark mode and more personalisation features

We’ve gone dark! 🌚

Blog post > We’ve gone dark! 🌚

We’ve officially launched dark mode to protect your tired eyes while using your Monese app!

A lot’s been happening over the last few months! We’ve unveiled quite a few new features to make your money management simple and easy. Read on to learn all that’s new with your app! 

### Customisable home screen
![New home screen - Modules](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/4jPNuhSGhvPx8yi427HHcX/8b73be07ef5e93223dce082c404819bf/Modules__1_.png)

We’ve redesigned our [home screen](https://monese.com/blog/new-home-screen "Welcome to your new home screen") so you can customise your app however you like! You can add or remove widgets to see any recently paid contacts, [savings pots](https://monese.com/blog/better-pots "Savings pots"), budget and your [Spending Overview](https://monese.com/blog/simple-spending-overview "Spending Overview"). Move them around the screen and reorder whichever widgets you want by tapping on the ‘Customise’ button at the bottom. You can also see how much you have in your pots right  next to your balance, or toggle to remove.

### Invite and earn referral program 
![MGM 1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/4xR0VnpDJXvkgcXtc0YLDo/ed14632a955f328dc06aaea1031d0bf1/MGM_1920x1080.png)

Our famous [Invite & Earn](https://monese.com/invite-and-earn "Invite and earn with Monese") program is back in select countries (check your app to see if you're eligible). Make up to £20 (or €20 or 110 lei, depending on your primary account) for each new friend who joins and starts spending. Invite as many friends as you like but the bonus will only work for your first 5 invited friends, so you can make up to a total of £100.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### And finally...
Other new features we’ve brought to your app these past few months are: 

- A simpler currency converter screen 
- A new type of statement that you can download straight from your app that lists out any fees you’ve paid 
- An easier way to get help straight from your app for any unrecognised online card transactions 
- A revamped ‘Help’ section in the app to make finding information even simpler
- We’ve also made a total of 225 fixes and improvements in your app. 

We’re always open to hearing your thoughts and suggestions for every new feature we bring you. Let us know how we can improve your in-app experience by leaving us your ideas on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese "Monese on Facebook"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese on Twitter"), [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/ "Monese on Instagram") or emailing us at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com).   


Spring 2021 Feature Update

Blog post > Your Spring 2021 feature update

We’ve been unveiling quite a few new features to make your money management simple and easy. Read on to see what’s new with your app this spring!

Your Spring 2021 feature update

Here’s what we’ve been releasing so far this year

If one of your goals this year is to get control over your money, our app can help you do just that. From useful budgeting tools, virtual cards to savings pots and much more, with Monese, you can manage your accounts straight from the palm of your hand.   

So whether you’re just discovering Monese or have been with us for a while, we’re here to remind you of just a few of the features that’ll help you get a handle on your finances. 

## Receive your salary in your Monese account 
![Receive-Salary-1920x1080 Monese notification on phone](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/R9DTxB69lzTr29DOhoou9/2fde677d8c624e86e28103a8a912d6db/Receive-Salary-1920x1080.gif)

[Getting your salary paid into your Monese account](https://monese.com/blog/receive-salary "How to receive your salary in your Monese account") is the first step to getting a grip on your finances. If you know you get paid regularly, you can start planning for what income you know you’ll have each month and exactly how much you have to work with. This will then make budgeting and sorting your money even easier. 

## Budget and monitor your spending 
![Spending Overview 1](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/2irOdKukCaCmiWYilvzgOA/5df92e9292f7a5d62a047164dac47e1e/Spending-Overview-1.jpg)

Once you’ve subtracted your essentials such as your rent or mortgage, groceries, utilities, transport and so on, you can quickly give yourself a [budget](https://monese.com/features/budgeting "Budgeting made easy") for whatever you have left over. With Monese, you can set up a monthly or weekly budget that you can adjust at any time. Keep an eye on your spending with our [Spending Overview](https://monese.com/blog/simple-spending-overview "An easy way to stay on top of your spending") feature, which neatly categorises your expenses into 15 different lifestyle categories.  

## Pay with your Monese card (physical or virtual) 
![Virtual-card-set-up2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1MKIcC0YXQNiYpYb7zwBmG/2c72d4901eb5a9bfdee6e30fee5032ee/Virtual-card-set-up2.png)

When you open a Monese account, you can order your very own shiny contactless Mastercard debit [card](https://monese.com/features/debit-card "Get a prepaid debit card from Monese") for all your in-store and online shopping needs or worldwide ATM withdrawals. You can add your Monese card to [Apple Pay](https://monese.com/features/apple-pay "Apple Pay: Easier, faster, more secure payments") or [Google Pay](https://monese.com/features/google-pay "Monese with Google Pay™") to pay quickly and securely — no need for a physical card. Or [create a virtual card](https://monese.com/blog/create-virtual-card "Virtual card: Introducing another easy and secure way to pay ") right in your app for an extra layer of security when you make transactions in-store or online. Your Monese virtual card is also linkable to Apple Pay and Google Pay.   

## Set up your savings pots 
![Saving-Improved-Pots-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1CSaqJMSADu9bHMUl5XsqR/8ae5f5ce6f1d6c837583b3caa2986c4a/Saving-Improved-Pots-2.png)

To help you [achieve your financial goals in 2021](https://monese.com/blog/financial-goals-2021 "Five tips to help you achieve your financial goals in 2021"), one of our top tips is to create savings [pots](https://monese.com/blog/better-pots "Pots have gotten even better") to help you keep your money separate from everyday spending. 

With Monese, you can create up to 10 different pots to help you save for more than one thing at a time. Give each pot a target amount plus a unique name like new laptop, [emergency fund](https://monese.com/blog/emergency-fund "How to build an emergency fund"), new cellphone or post-lockdown vacation to help keep you focused and on track. You can even round up transactions and multiply them by up to 10 — send spare change to your pot and multiply to help you reach your goals even faster!     

## Easily set up Direct Debits 
![Direct Debits 1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/6hHr69bKgCD9w6T6eoCnXc/37c7580a7361fa97f44dabe6190632c2/Direct_Debit_1920x1080.png)

With Monese, you can effortlessly set up [Direct Debits](https://monese.com/blog/setting-up-direct-debits-with-monese "Setting up Direct Debits with Monese"), so you don’t have to worry about a missed bill or payment ever again. Just share your Monese account number and sort cord with your service provider, request the date you’d like the payment to go out, and your goods provider will take care of the rest. Set it and forget it!  

## Make Recurring Payments 
![Recurring-3](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/35NiQZppeV7GdT9KB3iJDJ/e8b24e46484a52ec8249afcc70b5d365/Recurring-3.png)

Similarly, [Recurring Payments](https://monese.com/gb/en/blog/make-regular-transfers-with-recurring-payments "Make regular transfers with Recurring Payments") can help you never to forget to pay your landlord or even send money to a savings pot. With Monese, you can manage and cancel these at any time right from your app. Our integrated notifications will remind you when you have a Recurring Payment coming up, so you have time to [top up your account](https://monese.com/blog/add-money "All the ways to add money to your Monese account") if you need to, and there are no surprises. 

## Control joint spending 
![JA visual-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1xZwJvjfpxITWug2CkS42H/0da3278da30b02eb86faf32cd0cdd5b6/JA_visual-2.jpg)

With Monese, you can open a [joint account](https://monese.com/blog/launching-joint-accounts "Spend and save together with the new Monese Joint Account") with a partner, roommate, friend or family member to help you manage any shared expenses together. 

You’ll each get one of our rose gold contactless Mastercard debit cards and share one account number. This means you can both get your salaries paid directly into the account, set up direct debits and manage other payments and bills together. [Joint accounts](https://monese.com/products/joint-account "Open a Monese joint account online") also share the same balance and allowances, plus create up to 10 savings pots so you can save together too!   

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

We’re always working on building upon these features and creating even more useful tools to help you get a grasp on your finances and keep you in control. As always, we’re open to hearing your thoughts or any ideas you may have to improve our product to make money management even easier. Leave us your comments on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese "Monese official Facebook page"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese official Twitter page"), [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/ "Monese official Instagram page") or email us at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com) with your feedback.

Oprócz salda i transakcji, na nowym ekranie głównym zobaczysz teraz dane konta, podsumowanie wydatków, aktualny budżet, kwotę oszczędności w skarbonkach, wszelkie zaległe płatności i osoby, którym niedawno przelałeś środki. 

## Zmieniaj kolejność lub usuwaj
![New home screen - How-To-Rearrange-Widgets GIF](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/4V8gFZk8oxHWHLtEsBaqSu/0f234601fda422a3a258322a804046c3/How-To-Rearrange-Widgets__2_.gif)

Po uruchomieniu aplikacji możesz teraz wybrać wyświetlanie wszystkich oszczędności z twoich skarbonek, tuż obok salda konta. Możesz to łatwo wyłączyć wybraną opcję w zakładce „Dostosuj” i skonfigurować widżet, który pokazuje zestawienie zawartości każdej ze skarbonek.

Better than spending and saving with Monese is doing so with friends! There are so many benefits and reasons to invite your friends to join Monese — we’ve decided to highlight some of the greatest reasons in this blog post.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

Plus, if you’re a customer in the UK or Germany our famous [Invite and Earn](https://monese.com/invite-and-earn "Make up to £100 for new friends who join and start using Monese") referral program is back. Make money for up to five new friends that sign up and start spending with Monese. It’s going to be around for a limited time so be sure to act fast!

## What are the benefits? 
Here are the top 3 reasons why you should get your family and friends to join Monese: 

### 1. Send and receive money instantly

Quickly send, request and receive money instantly from other Monese contacts straight from your app. No matter if moving money between GBP, RON or EUR accounts, your money will land in your account in seconds, ready for you to spend or save. 

![Request payment Monese screen app](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/24eHW6xz5ZjMLh9Snn6pcn/217f51bdd49fcdc50397883b8b573a52/request_still_-_android_3_v3.png)

### 2. Open a joint account 
Whether it’s a family member, roommate, partner or friend, when you invite someone to join Monese, and they’ve signed up, you’ll then be able to invite them to open a [joint account](https://monese.com/products/joint-account "Open a Monese joint account") with you. 

[Joint accounts](https://monese.com/blog/launching-joint-accounts "Spend and save together with the new Monese Joint Account") are great for duos looking to save, pay, spend and keep track of money together. Share a balance, transaction feed and get real-time notifications whenever there’s movement on your joint account, so you both stay in the loop. You can even create up to 10 savings pots in your joint account so you can work towards [savings](https://monese.com/blog/savings-goals-with-partner "Setting savings goals with your partner") and [reach financial goals](https://monese.com/blog/financial-goals-2021 "Five tips to help you achieve your financial goals in 2021") together.  

![Open a joint account Monese screen app](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1xZwJvjfpxITWug2CkS42H/0da3278da30b02eb86faf32cd0cdd5b6/JA_visual-2.jpg)

### 3. Find friends near you 

Via Bluetooth, you’re able to find nearby Monese contacts to pay or request money from them fast. Just make sure you’re both discoverable, find your friend and voilà! Tap on your friend to send or request your money, and that’s all — no need for any extra details. 

![Find friends Bluetooth Monese screen app](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1Yo0PAIgPwkyKzI5HOyKq6/ab907ce5386f376465496f8c1912de1f/1920-Montly-round-up-Dec-2.jpg)

## Refer and earn 
With the reintroduction of our Invite and Earn program, you can make up to £20 (or €20 or 110 lei, depending on your primary account) for each new friend you refer. Invite as many friends as you like but the bonus will only work for your first 5 invited friends, so you can make up to a grand total of £100 (or €100 or 550 lei). You’ll earn your cash once they’ve successfully signed up and started spending with Monese. For the time being, the program is only open to customers in: 

🇭🇷 Croatia 

🇨🇾 Cyprus

🇩🇰 Denmark

🇪🇪 Estonia

🇫🇮 Finland

🇩🇪 Germany

🇬🇷 Greece

🇭🇺 Hungary

🇮🇸 Iceland

🇮🇪 Ireland

🇮🇹 Italy

🇱🇺 Luxembourg

🇲🇹 Malta

🇳🇴 Norway

🇵🇹 Portugal 

🇸🇮 Slovenia

🇪🇸 Spain

🇸🇪 Sweden

🇬🇧 UK

### How does it work? 
You can start inviting and earning in 4 easy steps: 

__Step 1__ -  Invite your friends using the Invite tab from your app. 

__Step 2__ - Once they’ve signed up using your invite code, remind them to get spending. 

__Step 3__ - Once they’ve made their first card transaction, you’ll both receive £5 (or €5 or 30 lei, depending on your primary account’s currency) 

__Step 4__ - Finally, nudge them to keep spending. Once they’ve spent at least £500 or €500 in card transactions or sent this much internationally (outside the EU/EEA), you’ll each get your final reward of £15 (or €15 or 80 lei, depending on your primary account). 

That’s it!

Monese is better with friends

Our Invite and Earn referral program is back!

Many people across the world are living far from their loved ones, whether for work, studies or all sorts of other reasons. But no matter how far apart, relatives still want to feel close to their kin, especially during times of financial need. So we make it easy to receive money from outside of Europe right into your app. 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

## Receiving money from outside the UK or EEA
Family and friends from all over can top up your account. Just remember that your Monese account can only receive GBP, EUR or RON. If their account is in a different currency, the sender will need to convert the money into one of these currencies and make sure to include your Monese ID as a reference when they make the payment, so the money reaches your account without a hitch. You can find your Monese ID right in the app under ‘Account details’. 

For full international bank transfer details, tap on ‘Add money’ on your home screen and select ‘Bank transfer’. From here, select the country you’re planning to receive money from, and you’ll have all the information the sender will need to make a payment. This includes the account name, IBAN and SWIFT/BIC. You’ll even have the option to share these details with the sender right from your app. 

![International Details Monese app screen 1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/5qPz5EdwVlpGyGxQdJsGXo/cd624d28b78da81f1f73010e4abdc952/International_Details_1920x1080.png)

## What else should I know?
Remember, transfer times depend on the sending bank. The good news is that we don’t charge any fees for receiving payments, but keep in mind that the sending bank may charge for transfers. 

<br/>

If you have any more questions about receiving international payments, visit our [FAQ](https://support.monese.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115002026325-How-do-I-receive-international-payments-into-my-account- "How do I receive international payments into my account?") article for more details.

Despite the crazy and disruptive year 2020 has been, we didn’t let it stop us from bringing you plenty of great new features to your app. So to wrap up a tumultuous year none of us are sure to miss, we’ve pulled together an end-of-the-year round-up of some of our favourite feature launches from the past 12 months.

Read on and take a look back with us! 🎉 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

## RON accounts with local IBANs 
![RON account app and card](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1tAa9KDUtdtbR2vBcaWwcO/fa4a29ddbe5b41105e274640b31aafdd/RON-Visual-1-EN.png)

We started the year off with a bang with the introduction of [RON accounts](https://monese.com/blog/ron-accounts "Say hello to RON accounts") for a better, more localised experience. Since early February, customers in Romania have been able to receive their salary right into their Monese RON account, make use of a contactless Mastercard RON debit card and send, receive and spend like a true local in the country.

![Monese for web screen](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3j24A81jPAlVW0cStByu87/49e9a56300d2e6b038a30c8bbfa0a82a/Webapp-Blog-BodyImg.jpg)

While we’ll always be mobile-first, we brought you [Monese for web](https://monese.com/blog/monese-for-web "We're rolling out Monese for web ") back in April so you can easily access your Monese account from your desktop computer or tablet. With [Monese for web](https://web.monese.com/ "Log in to your account "), you can view transactions, check your balance, get statements, log in securely and keep things private with the same privacy mode feature you have on your mobile app. 

## Save up to 30% with an annual plan 
![Calendar and Monese cards](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1QEfTJ3brZWquFf5iWAdbI/474fe70c03a4d0e6b5526faf047e062d/Annual-LS.png)

Since the introduction of [annual plans](https://monese.com/blog/annual-plans "Save more with annual plans") in June, you’ve been able to save up to 30% on Monese Classic and Premium plans. Get all the same features and generous allowances you love for less when you make the switch! You can easily sign up for an annual plan right in your app, or if you’re just joining Monese, you’ll see the option for an annual plan when you sign up.    

## Add cash to your account with Paysafecash 
![Paysafecash screens how it works steps](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/7HEYIumJhzAAwIx8Ko83kF/0bcbf44f10eb0d98b538a43ea3a6b26b/PaySafe-Visual-V2-1920x1080.jpg)

[Paysafecash](https://monese.com/blog/add-cash-paysafe "Add cash to your account with Paysafecash") is now an option for topping up your Monese EUR account with cash across Europe! We launched this feature in July and started with France, but quickly expanded to several other countries throughout Europe (you can find them all [here](https://monese.com/gb/en/features/paysafe "Add cash to your Monese account with Paysafecash")). 

You can quickly and securely top up your Monese EUR account with cash at nearly 72,000 Paysafecash payment points across Europe. This is part of our continued effort to expand our cash services, which include cash top-ups in the UK at any Post Office branch or high street shops and off-licenses with the PayPoint logo.

## French account numbers

At the end of July, we began rolling out [French account numbers](https://monese.com/blog/french-iban-account-number "Bonjour, French account numbers") for EUR account holders based in France. This makes it easier for people working in France to get paid directly into their account, set up SEPA Direct Debits, top up their account with cash via Paysafecash and lots more.

Annual Round Up - 1920x1080

Blog post > Your 2020 feature roundup 

Your 2020 feature roundup 

Whenever your balance is running low, there are many ways you can add money to your Monese account in just a matter of taps. Whether you’re topping up your GBP, EUR or RON account, you can always choose the most convenient way to add money straight from your phone. In this blog post, we’ll explore all the ways you can add money to your different currency accounts. You can also head to the ‘Add money’ screen found on your app's home screen to see all your options and get started.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### Instant top-up
![Top up 1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/hSIe7cQ6iZrDyaEa1gC4z/c6c2b199456a12208ceb1a2f594488ae/Top_up_1920x1080.png)

If you’re strapped for cash, there are a few ways to add money to your Monese account instantly. One of the easiest ways is to top up using another personal debit card you’ve got. Debit card top-ups are free, and your balance should be updated right away. 

### Request a payment
![request still - android 3 v3](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/24eHW6xz5ZjMLh9Snn6pcn/217f51bdd49fcdc50397883b8b573a52/request_still_-_android_3_v3.png)

To receive money instantly, you can also request money from other Monese customers for free. You can also find friends near you via Bluetooth — once found, tap on your friend and request your money. No need to enter any extra details!

### Move money between your accounts
![Move Money Landscape](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/376VVQPuCZq12G3A3qn6RG/3951bf12f3821fda8730ae5552fa9497/Move_Money_Landscape.png)

You can also conveniently move money between your different Monese currency accounts. Monese to Monese transfers are always instant and free, no matter the currency. This means you can move money between different currency accounts hassle-free, without additional fees.

### Bank transfers 
![Bank Transfer 1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3niZQDSA1neN5wtcU5w1fg/ed304fab60e167dca4b97a2ee008f4cf/Bank_Transfer_1920x1080.png)

You can, of course, add money to your Monese account by bank transfer! 

For local transfers, you can use your GBP account to instantly receive pounds from other UK accounts via UK Faster Payments; or you can use your RON account to receive local payments from other accounts in Romania (these usually take up to one working day). 

If you’re adding euros to your EUR account via bank transfer, you can do so via a SEPA payment. These usually clear within one working day (but can sometimes take up to 3 working days). You can also top up your EUR account with [Sofort](https://monese.com/gb/en/blog/sofort-top-up-european-account) (in some countries).

If you need to receive money from outside the UK or EEA, you can do so using a [dedicated Monese account number](https://support.monese.com/hc/en-gb/articles/115002026325-How-do-I-deposit-via-IBAN). Just remember that this account can only receive GBP, EUR or RON, and the sender will need to add your Monese ID in the reference field.

### Add with cash 
![PaySafe Hero - 1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/2pjOFe8b4NYNZEg1QZ6jCM/315d03f323747e69cc544d3e624e3ce0/PaySafe_Hero_-_1920x1080.jpg)

You can top up your account with cash at over 40,000 Post Office and PayPoint locations in the UK. Just head to any Post Office branch or any convenience store or off-license that displays the PayPoint logo. Cash top-ups at the Post Office will arrive in your account the next day, while cash top-ups at PayPoint are usually instantly available in your account. 

We’ve also partnered with [Paysafecash](https://monese.com/blog/add-cash-paysafe), so you can add cash to your EUR account at tens of thousands of locations across Europe. We’ll soon be extending the service to more countries so stay tuned! 

### Receive your salary 
![Monese salary](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1IXsUoIkmUom6wIerK6ZRb/ecd9a009bf3b9447ab36dc00212ae5d2/image__14_.png)

With our app, we make it easy to [receive your salary right in your Monese account](https://monese.com/blog/receive-salary). You can easily copy and share your account details with your employer straight from your phone by heading to the ‘Account details’ screen and tapping the ‘Share’ button. You’ll be able to share the details right away or even export a PDF of your account details to send over any messaging app.

If you have any more questions about ways to top up your Monese account, visit our [FAQs](https://support.monese.com/) for more info.

Blog post > All the ways to add money to your Monese account

Top up easily, quickly and securely

One of the easiest ways to make sure you always have money in your Monese account is by getting your salary paid right into it. In this blog post, we’ll go through how to share your account details with your employer, so you can rest assured your wages will land right in your account each time.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### Share your account details 
You can easily copy and share your account details with your employer straight from your Monese app. These details include information like your name, account number and any other necessary info. 

![Account-Details-1920x1080 (1)](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3N6aKopWMHwzHU0wT3eq5M/8590f97bc8c001e3f5c94b536376262a/Account-Details-1920x1080__1_.gif)

### Here’s how to do it: 

__Step 1:__ Open your app and head to the ‘Account details’ section on your home screen (under your balance).

__Step 2:__ Tap the ‘Share’ button, and you’ll be able to share the details right away or even export a PDF of your account details, to send over email or any other messaging app.

That’s it! With these details, your employer should have everything they need to pay your salary regularly into your Monese account.  

### How long will it take for my salary to land in my account?  
![Receive-Salary-1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/R9DTxB69lzTr29DOhoou9/2fde677d8c624e86e28103a8a912d6db/Receive-Salary-1920x1080.gif)

Employers usually submit salaries with enough time for processing, so you can count on your salary landing in your account on time. In the UK, for example, we accept all common payment methods. Here are the typical processing times:

- __BACS payments__ — most commonly used for paying salaries and wages; these take 3 working days to clear
- __CHAPS payments__ — also widely used for salary and wages; these arrive on the same day if sent before 2pm, UK time
- __UK Faster Payments__ — the fastest payment method between UK accounts; these payments usually arrive in your account instantly

If you have an EUR account and you’re getting paid in euros, you’ll need to receive a __SEPA payment__, which usually clears within one working day (but can sometimes take up to 3 working days). If, for any reason, your employer refuses to accept your Monese IBAN for euro-to-euro payments, read our blog post on [IBAN discrimination](https://monese.com/blog/iban-discrimination) for advice on what to do. 

If you’re getting your salary in RON and have a [RON account](https://monese.com/blog/ron-accounts), you'll be able to receive a __local bank transfer__ from your employer thanks to our fully localised Romanian account numbers. Transfers usually arrive within 1 working day.  

As soon as the money is in your account, we’ll send you a notification letting know you’ve been paid! 🎉

French account numbers, cash top-ups & annual plans: here’s the latest on the Monese app

At Monese, we’re always working to make it easier to manage your money, no matter where you are. We recently launched [European account numbers](https://monese.com/blog/2019/10/new-eu-iban-account-number), and we promised to follow up with updates for our customers in France.
Today we’re excited to announce we’ve started the roll-out of French account numbers (IBANs) for customers based in France using Monese EUR accounts! 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### Your French account number
![FR-IBAN-GIF-NEW-V2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/6EsFrt8rErAkaSxi1WWmlj/7cf7c3e81eedd1eccb3762cb5671db20/FR-IBAN-GIF-NEW-V2.gif)

Our French account numbers come packed with features that let you spend, send and save like a true local:

__Direct Debits__
You can now set up Direct Debits from your EUR account – you’ll be able to pay your bills in France and across Europe by setting up SEPA Direct Debits. Direct Debits give you peace of mind that your bills are being paid automatically, so you never miss a payment. 

__Cash top-ups__
You can also now top up your Monese account with cash! We’ve partnered with [Paysafecash](https://monese.com/blog/2020/07/add-cash-paysafe) so you can add cash to your Monese account from nearly 12,000 payment points throughout the country. 

__Receive your salary__
Receiving your salary in your Monese account has never been easier. Even though you [should already be able to use](https://monese.com/blog/2020/03/iban-discrimination) your existing account number for this, we’ve heard from some of you that a French account number is preferred by your employers. All you need to do is give them your new account number – it can easily be shared with anyone, by tapping on ‘Share’ from the ‘Accounts details’ page. 

__Link your PayPal account__
You can also [link your Monese account to PayPal](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/07/monese-with-paypal) to easily view your PayPal transactions right in your Monese app, and quickly add your Monese card to your PayPal digital wallet for extra security while you’re shopping online (without having to enter your card details).

### How to get started

Before we get you set up with a French account number, we’ll need you to upload a second ID document – this is to make sure we comply with local regulations.
It’s important to note that there won’t be any changes to how your Monese account and card works – and you’ll still be able use your original GB account number to receive payments.

If you’re just joining Monese now, you’ll be able to get a French account number right away.

If you've already got a Monese account, we’ll have your French account number available soon. We've already started the roll-out process, so make sure to keep an eye on your app and on your email inbox for next steps.

Your EUR account will start with the letters ‘FR’. You’ll find your French account number, BIC code and RIB key in your Monese EUR account under ‘Account details’ (you can find it just below your balance) on your app’s home screen. You can also find it in the ‘Account’ menu at the top left corner.

And remember that to upgrade, you’ll need to have the latest version of our app.

We can’t wait to see how you’ll be using your new French account number. We’d love to hear your thoughts on how it’s working for you and what you’d like to see added in the future.

Bonjour, French account numbers

Here’s everything you need to know about our new French account numbers (or IBANs) for customers living in France

While cash may not be the most popular payment method to use right now due to the pandemic, the reality is that it still plays a big part in many people’s lives. Customers in the UK, for example, can easily top up with cash at any Post Office branch or high street shop, corner-store or off-license with the PayPoint logo. Now, we’re excited to be expanding our cash top-up feature, starting with customers in France. 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

We’re partnering with [Paysafecash](https://www.paysafecash.com/), so you can conveniently add money to your Monese account with cash at payment points all throughout your country.

We started with France, but we’ve already turned it on for more countries!

__29 July update:__ You can now top up your account with cash if you live in Spain, Portugal and Belgium.

__17 August update:__ You can top up your account with cash if you live in the Netherlands.

__1 September update:__ You can top up your account with cash if you live in Austria or Luxembourg.

__14 September update:__ You can top up your account with cash if you live in Poland or Bulgaria.  

__12 November update:__ You can top up your account with cash if you live in Romania.    

<br /><br />

## Where it works
You can visit Paysafecash payment points to top up your Monese account with cash if you live in one of these countries:

🇦🇹 Austria (nearly [5,000](https://www.paysafecash.com/de-at/) payment points)

🇧🇪 Belgium ([1,000+](https://www.paysafecash.com/fr-be/))

🇧🇬 Bulgaria ([300+](https://www.paysafecash.com/bg-bg/))

🇫🇷 France (nearly [12,000](https://www.paysafecash.com/fr-fr/))

🇱🇺 Luxembourg ([29](https://www.paysafecash.com/fr-lu/))

🇳🇱 Netherlands (nearly [200](https://www.paysafecash.com/nl-be/))

🇵🇱 Poland ([9,600+](https://www.paysafecash.com/pl-pl/))

🇵🇹 Portugal ([7,000+](https://www.paysafecash.com/pt-pt/))

🇷🇴 Romania ([27,000+](https://www.paysafecash.com/ro-ro/))

🇪🇸 Spain ([16,000+](https://www.paysafecash.com/es-es/))

We’ll soon be extending the service to more countries, so stay tuned!

<br /><br />

## How it works

![Paysafe how it works blog](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/7ctSVYFo8MZdav7RVHf9ii/9724c684d14cf5a8d582f74fddde2f26/PaySafe-Visual-V2-1920x1080.jpg)

Adding money to your Monese account with Paysafecash is easy, simple and secure. Here’s how to do it:

__Step 1:__ Open your app, tap ‘Add money’ and find the Paysafecash option.

__Step 2:__ Once you’ve selected this, choose the amount you want to add (if it’s your first time topping up this way, we’ll ask you to set up your Paysafecash profile — you’ll only need to do this once).

__Step 3:__ A barcode will be created, which you can download to your phone and show at any participating Paysafecash location. The available sites will show up on your screen so you can find the one closest to you.

__Step 4:__ Once at your chosen location, hand your barcode to the cashier to scan and pay them the amount you’d like to deposit. They’ll give you a receipt.

That’s it! Your money should be in your account within the hour.

<br /><br />

## Things to remember

![Paysafe add money screen blog](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/A8HnnanrbZRneOzlNAlAk/f84ab9ee215947a49d3a13dec8966e9f/PaySafe-Visual-1920x1080-V2.jpg)

When using Paysafecash, here are some important things to keep in mind:

- The generated barcode has an availability of 2 hours, after which it expires.
- If the barcode has expired and becomes invalid, you’ll need to create a new barcode via your Monese app.
- Depending on your Monese plan, fees may apply: if you’re on Simple, 2.5% of the top-up amount (minimum €2) will apply. If you’re on Classic, you’ll pay no fees within the limits of your allowance. Once you go over your limit, a fee of 2% of the top-up amount (minimum €2) will apply. And if you’re on Premium, you pay no fees! We recommend looking at your plan allowances (under ‘My Plans’ in the app) for details. Fees are only charged once the top-up is complete and the money has landed in your account.
- If your money isn’t in your account within six hours, contact [Paysafecash customer care](http://support@paysafecash.com/) using the information presented in your receipt.

We’re really excited to bring you access to these types of cash services. While we look for ways to expand and improve on this new feature, we’d love to hear your thoughts on how Monese is working for you. What new features would you like to see in the future?

W Monese nie uznajemy ukrytych opłat — wręcz przeciwnie, pomagamy ci oszczędzać. Dlatego uruchamiamy roczne pakiety dla naszych klientów Monese Classic i Premium, aby zwiększyć twoje oszczędności! Pakiety roczne zawierają wszystkie te same wspaniałe funkcje i dodatki, które uwielbiasz — za mniej. Czytaj dalej, aby dowiedzieć się więcej. 



## Our plans explained
W Monese możesz wybrać jeden z trzech elastycznych pakietów, dopasowanych specjalnie do twoich potrzeb. Oto krótkie podsumowanie każdego z nich:

### Simple
Nasz pakiet Simple jest idealny dla osób, które potrzebują konta mobilnego i karty debetowej, bez względu na to, czy często podróżujesz, kupujesz online, czy dopiero zaczynasz swoją przygodę z płatnościami. Ten pakiet nie ma opłat miesięcznych i zawiera ulgi na bezpłatne wypłaty gotówki i wydatki w obcej walucie.


### Classic
Zaprojektowaliśmy nasz plan Classic dla tych, którzy zamierzają używać Monese jako głównego konta, regularnie wypłacając pieniądze lub wydając więcej w obcych walutach. Koszt tego pakietu to 5,95 £ miesięcznie, jeśli twoje podstawowe konto jest w GBP (oraz 5,95 €, jeśli jest w EUR, lub 24,95 RON, jeśli jest w RON). Jeśli wybierzesz roczny abonament, ceny zmniejszą się w następujący sposób:

- GBP: około 4,16 £ co miesiąc (49,95 £ rocznie)
- EUR: około 4,16 € co miesiąc (49,95 € rocznie)
- RON: około 17,16 RON co miesiąc (205,95 RON rocznie)


### Premium
Nasze konto Premium jest najlepszym wyborem spośród naszych kont Monese, jeśli dysponujesz większą sumą pieniędzy, planujesz spore wydatki w obcych walutach lub regularne przelewy za granicę i chcesz uniknąć dodatkowych opłat. Koszt tego pakietu to 14,95 £ co miesiąc, jeśli twoje podstawowe konto jest w GBP (oraz 14,95 €, jeśli jest w EUR, lub 69,95 RON, jeśli jest w RON). Jeśli wybierzesz roczny abonament, ceny zmniejszą się w następujący sposób:

- GBP: około 10,41 £ co miesiąc (124,95 £ rocznie)
- EUR: około 10,41 € co miesiąc (124,95 € rocznie)
- RON: około 48,83 RON co miesiąc (585,95 RON rocznie)


## Wybierz roczny abonament Classic lub Premium
Zakup rocznego abonamentu w Monese jest prosty. Możesz zaoszczędzić do 30% więcej niż w przypadku opłat miesięcznych, wybierając abonament roczny. Oto jak zostać subskrybentem:

- Otwórz aplikację Monese.
- Otwórz menu boczne i przejdź do karty „Moje pakiety”.
- Wybierz swój pakiet (Classic lub Premium).
- Upewnij się, że masz wystarczającą ilość środków na koncie.
- Wybierz opłatę roczną.

To wszystko! Jeśli zmienisz zdanie, możesz skontaktować się z naszym Zespołem Obsługi Klienta w ciągu 14 dni i otrzymać pełny zwrot pieniędzy. Jeśli jeszcze nie dołączyłeś do Monese, ale chciałbyś spróbować, podczas rejestracji zobaczysz opcję wyboru rocznej subskrypcji.

Another month has come and gone. Time sure is flying! While you’ve been busy [working from home](https://monese.com/blog/2020/03/stay-sane-working-remotely "Stay sane working remotely"), we’ve been busy working on building new features with each release. Here’s a quick summary of what we’ve been up to this April plus a little something extra for you, so read on! 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### Monese for web
![Monese for web home screen](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3j24A81jPAlVW0cStByu87/49e9a56300d2e6b038a30c8bbfa0a82a/Webapp-Blog-BodyImg.jpg)

Although we’ll always be mobile by nature, we know a lot of you asked for a [web version](https://monese.com/blog/2020/04/monese-for-web "Monese for web") of our app. So for those who prefer viewing transactions on a bigger screen, our first version of [Monese for web](http://web.monese.com/ "Log in") is here! Log in to your account from any device and check your balance, search through transactions and download statements. In the meantime, we’re working on bringing more exciting features, so stay tuned.

### Save together with pots for joint accounts
 !["Vacation pots"](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/5JkblS8xvkfQdjSYfvZg6y/da46c6f243c16a9406242597d34989e8/joint_pot_tw-copy.jpg)

[Money has been a taboo topic](https://monese.com/blog/2020/02/talking-finances-partner-taboo-topic "Talking finances with your partner") between couples and families for a long time; however, now might be a more important time than ever to learn to save together. That’s why we’ve enabled pots for joint accounts. You can now create up to 10 personalised pots, set up recurring payments to one of them and choose to round up each transaction to send the difference to a pot. You can even multiply the spare change by up to 10 so you can reach your savings goals together even faster.

### In case you missed it…
![8 new feature launches](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/6JfngeBpH8t9ClBOWXhTrE/ae13f6b2bf3c9e90a13e37311c88a966/1920-Monthly-round-up-April-Body-V2.png)

We started with these monthly feature updates exactly one year ago. To celebrate the milestone, we thought it’d be a great opportunity to share some of our favourite features we’ve launched since then.

Here goes...

## RON accounts for a more local experience
This is truly something special for our customers in Romania — a [fully localised account in Romanian lei](https://monese.com/blog/2020/02/ron-accounts "Say hello to RON accounts") with a local IBAN and a contactless Mastercard debit card to allow you to make free local payments and easily receive your salary.

## Joint accounts to save together
Whether you’re sharing expenses with your partner, splitting rent with a roommate or saving for something special with a friend, easily manage your money together with [joint accounts](https://monese.com/blog/2019/12/launching-joint-accounts "Spend and save together with joint accounts")! Get better visibility and control over your joint spending. Quickly invite another Monese customer to open a joint account with you, order your cards and start spending, sending and saving together.

## Virtual cards for extra security
Whether shopping online or paying with your phone, you don’t need to pull out your physical card thanks to [virtual cards](https://monese.com/blog/2019/12/create-virtual-card "Create a virtual card"), which offer an extra layer of security. To create yours, open your app, go to ‘Card’ and swipe left to see the virtual card option.

## EU IBANs
While no organisation operating in a SEPA country is allowed to [discriminate against your IBAN](https://monese.com/blog/2020/03/iban-discrimination "IBAN discrimination"), we knew having a more localised service was important to you. That’s why we started offering [European IBANs](https://monese.com/blog/2019/10/new-eu-iban-account-number "Introducing your new European account number") (starting with BE) last year to all our customers based outside the UK or France with EUR accounts. And there’s even more exciting news to come soon on this front, so stay tuned!

## Monese with Apple Pay
Since the world is becoming increasingly reliant on digital and contactless payments, this was one of the [most wanted features](https://monese.com/blog/2019/04/apple-pay-is-here "Apple Pay is here"). Now you have an easy, quick and secure way to pay with your iPhone by adding your Monese card to Apple Pay. Pay comfortably without the hassle of carrying your physical card around with you.

## Set money aside with pots
We first made it easy to spend and send money. Then we wanted to make saving simple too! We built [pots](https://monese.com/blog/2019/06/saving-money-monese-pots "Monese pots") so you can quickly set aside funds and automate your savings. You can have up to 10 pots per currency account, name and set goals for each, round up your transactions and automatically send the spare change to a pot.

## A Monese cards makeover
We redesigned our cards to reflect our pricing better, offering a unique and sleek card design for each of our plans. Our vision was something futuristic and elegant... and we couldn’t be happier with the result! The vertical design is available now in beautiful combinations of sheer whites and subtly textured blues. Learn more about the latest design on our [Insights blog](https://medium.com/monese/our-new-monese-cards-da654c43f24a "Our new Monese cards").

## Link your PayPal and Monese accounts
We partnered with [PayPal](https://monese.com/blog/2019/07/monese-with-paypal "Monese with the power of PayPal") so you can quickly check your PayPal balance and review recent transactions straight from your Monese app. Seamlessly add your Monese card to your PayPal wallet too! The feature is currently available for customers based in France, Germany, Italy, the UK and Spain.

## Google Pay in more countries
Since [2018](https://monese.com/blog/2018/07/google-pay-the-easy-way-to-pay-with-monese-for-android "Google Pay and Monese"), Android users have been able to enjoy a faster and simpler way to pay at millions of places. They’ve been able to quickly add their Monese card to Google Pay and use their phone to pay wherever contactless payments are accepted. Over the last year, we worked on bringing the feature to even [more countries across Europe](https://monese.com/blog/2019/09/google-pay-europe "Google Pay Monese across Europe") (15 total)!

## Reminder
Since the start of April, you can now spend more without the hassle of inserting your card and typing your PIN. Mastercard contactless payment limits for many countries are now higher:

- £45 in the UK (up from £30)
- BGN 100 in Bulgaria (up from BGN 50)
- HRK 350 in Croatia (up from HRK 100)
- €50 in Spain, Portugal and Cyprus (up from €20)
- €50 in Estonia, Germany, Greece, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta and the Netherlands (up from €25)
- €50 in Ireland (up from €30)
- HUF 15,000 in Hungary (up from HUF 5,000)
- PLN 100 in Poland (up from PLN 50)
- SEK 400 in Sweden (up from SEK 200)

Just keep in mind that merchants need to update their card machines.

We’d love to know which of these features you’re most excited about plus what you’d like us to introduce in the future. Let us know on [Facebook](https://facebook.com/MyMonese "Monese official Facebook page"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese official Twitter page"), [Instagram](https://instagram.com/monese "Monese official Instagram page") or drop us a line at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com "Email us").

Here’s what we’ve launched this month... and a few extras!

Your April 2020 feature update 

1920-Montly-round-up-April-Hero 3f4868c4b26d42bdbc5c1cc73be46c1f

Blog post > Your April 2020 feature update

We’re happy to announce that you can now log in to your Monese account from your desktop with the new [Monese for web](https://web.monese.com "Log in to your account")! We’ve had lots of requests for a web version of Monese, so we’re incredibly excited to finally be able to share its first version with you.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

## What can I use it for?
![Monese for web screen](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3zyBf5svdyFT8v4BDo6xmU/99d3cc4305281319a73f17c3af26da45/Webapp-Blog-BodyImg__1_.jpg)

Easy to navigate, we designed the web version of Monese to provide you with more tools and better access to manage your account and expenses. Here’s everything you can use it for right now.

### Log in securely 
We’ve added an extra layer of security to Monese for web. On your first login, we’ll ask you to set a password, for which you’ll need to go through a two-factor authentication (2FA) process using your mobile app. You then won’t need your phone every time you use it.

### Check your balance
You can check your personal, business and other accounts like PayPal or Avios; plus your total balance, all in one place. For more details, just choose the account you want to view. 

### Browse your transactions
You can also filter transactions to easily find exactly what you’re searching for. Sort transactions by date, spending amount or category for a faster search.

### Download statements 
Monese for web lets you to download your account statements straight to your computer. Choose the date range for your statement and quickly get it in PDF or CSV format.

### Keep things private

For extra privacy, you can hide your on-screen balance using ‘Privacy Mode’, just as you would on our mobile app.

## How to get started
![Monese for web privacy mode](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/vWXl4jVRXW4mJ2rvahior/000cc3af6c5e1dc339b29784884bb646/web-app-privacy-mode.jpg)

It’s easy to log in to your Monese account from the web. Follow these steps to get started:

__Step 1__: [Go to web.monese.com](https://web.monese.com "Sign in to your account") and type in your phone number (you can also get to it from our website [home page ](https://monese.com/eu "Monese") via the ‘Log in’ button at the top right-hand corner). 

__Step 2__: Check your Monese app to get the 6-digit verification code (which you’ll need for your first login). For this step, make sure your Monese app is up to date.

__Step 3__: Type in the code and start navigating your accounts online! And don’t worry if you get caught up with something else, we’ll safely log you out if you’re inactive for too long.

## What’s next?
![Monese for web tweet](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/5qmlo3zE1sHRAzNfPXSuY3/4cbefdd446248fd423d69b4e7059486a/web-app-tweet-2.jpg)

For users who need larger screens for more complex activities related to their accounts, such as for business or other reasons, we hope this new online feature is useful to you. We’re working on adding more features &mdash; so take this as a sneak peek of what’s to come! 
Once you try out Monese for web, we’d love to hear your thoughts. If you have any ideas or suggestions for improvement, write us on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese "Monese official Facebook page"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese official Twitter page"), [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese "Monese official Instagram page") or email us at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com "Email us").

Blog post > We’re rolling out Monese for web

Despite everything going on right now, one thing you can always be certain of and continue to count on is your account with Monese and our dedicated service to you. We’ve been as busy as ever to bring new features to your app &mdash; nothing’s slowing us down! So without further ado, here’s everything we’ve been up to.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### Create and manage business invoices
![Business-Invoices-Hero-Landscape 50390c38ed0094a386d62c09f1033516](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/6weQ192wmZvNm72xJOTxva/6305a0d7a64d5072526f60a56109b05c/Business-Invoices-Hero-Landscape_50390c38ed0094a386d62c09f1033516.png)

If you have a Monese business account, you can now easily handle your company’s billings right from the comfort of your smartphone, by creating and managing invoices from the app! When you’ve entered all the details of the invoice, you’ll be able to send the invoice to your client straight away or save it as a draft for later. All your invoices &mdash; both drafts and those already paid &mdash; will be available for you at any time directly in the Monese app. 

### In case you missed it...
![TransferV2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3ws0t9IyQeBgEgj2rdyxrh/4af1b29627ff752cf64dd390d273fbd4/TransferV2.jpg)

If you need to send, request or receive money from your friends and family during this difficult time, you can easily do so with our money-saving __[international transfer](https://monese.com/eu/international-money-transfer)__ service. With your Monese app, you can send fast international transfers, often with much better exchange rates than when using traditional banks. And if you’re sending between Monese accounts, your transfer is totally free and instant (no matter the currency). 

![1920-Budget-v2-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/7wDIDUW5u6XAOx05TfegYj/2d897a74d0a850b475988e8ec5cb0602/1920-Budget-v2-2.jpg)

Many people are spending their time indoors these days. With all the extra time inside the house, it’s easy to go a little nuts shopping online. Make sure, though, that you’re still sticking to your budget and not overspending. This is easy to do with our __[spending overview feature](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/04/simple-spending-overview)__ and __budgeting tools__. Create monthly or weekly budgets for yourself and gain insight and a clear breakdown of your spending, so you know where your money is going.

### And finally...
Other enhancements this month include 89 bug fixes and improvements - here are some of them:

- Our Monese Hub got a makeover, so it’s easier to discover and explore our best partner offers. 
- If you live in the Czech Republic, Croatia or Slovakia you can now add your Monese cards to [Google Pay](https://monese.com/blog/2019/09/google-pay-europe). 
- We’ve also made improvements to our [Frequently Asked Questions](https://support.monese.com/hc/en-gb) section, so it’s easier to find what you’re looking for. 

We’re always looking to upgrade our product and service for you. That’s why we want to hear your feedback and ideas. Feel free to get in touch on [Facebook](https://facebook.com/MyMonese), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese), [Instagram](https://instagram.com/monese) or via email at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com) to share your thoughts.

Nothing’s stopping us from bringing you the best features to keep your money moving

Your March monthly update

March-Montly-round-up 50390c38ed0094a386d62c09f1033516

Blog post > Your March monthly update

It may have been a slightly shorter month (despite it being a leap year), but that hasn’t slowed things down around here. We’ve been up to some really exciting stuff, so read on to check out everything that’s new with our app! 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### RON accounts are here
![RON account](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/2ky7w2JPPn4Hh0JelhwF7L/5ef021a34755e1a7ac0854c235032c0f/RON-Hero-EN.png)

This month we launched [RON accounts](https://monese.com/blog/2020/02/ron-accounts "Say hello to RON accounts")! They come fully localised with Romanian account numbers (IBANs) and contactless debit cards. All you need is a Romanian-issued ID, and you can open your RON account in a matter of minutes, right from your app. 

With your new RON account, you’ll be able to shop, spend and save like a local using the country’s currency, the Romanian leu. You’ll also be able to send and receive money locally plus send instant and free transfers to friends and family with Monese accounts, no matter what currency it’s in! 

### Tips for collecting Avios
![Avios Smart Tip transaction feed](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/4FLL9WnidriUfty05A2ieZ/ba69da522889b98a2afcf4d99d519af8/Avios_FebRoundup.jpg)

You’ll start seeing Avios Smart Tips in your transaction feed. When you spend in pounds at certain stores, we’ll show you how to collect Avios when you shop with them in the future.

### In case you missed it...
We’ve been adding a lot of new features over the past months, so we thought we’d remind you about some of the highlights!

![Direct-Debits-1](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/2URpeNZbcNITGEMGoGWdit/3b4356e806f2fd2bfedeeafe832d4407/Direct-Debits-1.jpg)

If you have one of our new European account numbers (IBANs), you can now set up __SEPA direct debits__ on your Monese EUR account! This means you can conveniently manage your payments and bills straight from your Monese app. Direct debits allow you to set up payments automatically, so you save both time and effort. Direct debits give permission to authorised service providers to automatically collect money from your account. Unlike recurring payments, they can vary in frequency and amount.

![Virtual-Card-Hero](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/d6tKaw8qAnivKPDanTIos/6422f3451e94b6f6d0ee3ea3a413be2a/Virtual-Card-Hero.png)

Need to start spending right away? Try our __virtual cards__! You can now create yours instantly, across any currency account, once you’ve verified your address. You’ll be able to use it right away for shopping online, or add it to Apple Pay or Google Pay to pay with your phone wherever contactless is accepted.

### And finally...
We squashed 70+ bugs this month, so you can have a smoother experience. Other improvements include:

- opening your app in Privacy Mode with just a long press on the home screen icon
- creating a virtual card for your RON account and adding it to Apple Pay
- showing your average yearly balance if you live in Italy
- easily activating your new Monese card using just the last four digits

We’d love to hear your thoughts on these, plus any suggestions you may have for any future features. Reach out to us on [Facebook](https://facebook.com/MyMonese "Monese official Facebook page"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese official Twitter page"), [Instagram](https://instagram.com/monese "Monese official Instagram page") with your ideas or drop us a line at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com "Email us").

Check out all the cool new features we’ve added to your app this month 

Your February monthly update

Montly-Round-Up-Feb-Hero 50390c38ed0094a386d62c09f1033516

Blog post > Your February monthly update

Anyone can open a Monese account in a matter of minutes, and use it to spend like a local all over Europe - from today, this includes Romania!

If you've got a Romania-issued ID, you can now open a new RON currency account, with a fully local Romanian account number (IBAN) and a RON debit card!

### Why create a RON account?
![RON-Visual-1-EN](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1tAa9KDUtdtbR2vBcaWwcO/fa4a29ddbe5b41105e274640b31aafdd/RON-Visual-1-EN.png)

### Spend like a local
Monese accounts in GBP and EUR have already been available for some time - but if you live in Romania, even though the allowances are generous, you may not be comfortable with effectively exchanging currency on each transaction. With your new RON account, you’ll be able to shop, spend and save like a true local, using the country’s currency, the Romanian Leu.

### Send and receive money locally
Speaking of local, you’ll now be able to make free local transfers to other banks in the country and even easily receive your salary into your account! Or if you need to make regular transfers to pay your bills, you can set up recurring payments in RON.

## Instant and free transfers between Monese accounts
[Send, receive and request payments](https://monese.com/blog/2019/03/request-payments) easily and instantly from your family and friends who also have a Monese account - it’s absolutely free! So if you live in Bucharest and you need to send some cash to a friend in London, a payment from your Monese RON account to their Monese GBP account will be instant and fee-free.

## A contactless debit card in the local currency
When you open your Monese RON account, you’ll be able to order one of our beautifully designed Monese cards, depending on the [plan](https://monese.com/pricing-ro) you choose. Our cards are prepaid debit Mastercards, which you can use to spend or withdraw money anywhere in the world. Here are some cool things you can do:

- Make safe online transactions when shopping online.
- Lock and unlock your card straight from the app &mdash; so if you ever lose your card, you can rest assured your money will stay safe.
- Make contactless payments.
- Set up your Monese card with [Apple Pay](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/06/monese-apple-pay-more-countries) for a more secure, private and simple way to pay.

### How to open your RON account
![RO-Teaser-EN](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/mvrz8OJCfuPWiso3AdclT/93b602bb58e8c0cba37d4c5f9abac19f/RO-Teaser-EN.gif)

If you’re already on board with us, then adding a RON account is easy and takes just a couple of taps:

- On the home screen, tap the ‘Account’ button (on the top left-hand side).
- Then tap ‘Add account’.
- Select RON, follow the instructions, and you’ll have it in no-time.

Keep in mind that right now, RON accounts are available to anyone who has a Romanian ID document. They’re part of the latest app version, so you'll need to update your Monese app to see them.

If you want to read more about RON accounts, feel free to explore our [Help Centre](https://support.monese.com/hc/en-gb). Or if you have any questions, our Romanian-speaking [Customer Support team](https://monese.com/contact) is here to help.

If you’re not using Monese yet, you can get started by downloading the app now:

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

We’re really excited to see how you’ll be using your new RON account. We’d love to hear your thoughts on how it’s working for you and what other features you’d like to see in the future. If anything comes to mind, reach out to us on [Facebook](https://facebook.com/MyMonese), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese), [Instagram](https://instagram.com/monese) or drop us an email at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com).

Blog post > Say hello to RON accounts

For many of us, time slows down this month, making January seem like the longest month of the year. But January is also a month with a lot of potential. It’s a period to reflect, reorganise and plan for a fresh start. Taking on this mindset, we’ve been working on releasing entirely new features over the past month, plus polishing existing ones to help you kick off 2020 in high spirits.

Here’s a summary of all the things we’ve released this January...

### Better pots
![Saving-Improved-Pots-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1CSaqJMSADu9bHMUl5XsqR/8ae5f5ce6f1d6c837583b3caa2986c4a/Saving-Improved-Pots-2.png)

This month we’ve added some useful features to [Monese pots](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2020/01/better-pots), that will make putting aside money even easier. To help you reach all your different savings goals even faster, you can now create up to 10 different pots for each of your currency accounts and create a specific goal for each pot. You’ll also be able to set up automatic weekly or monthly transfers from your account directly into your pot. If you need a little help setting aside money, our new round-up feature is here to help! Each time you pay with your Monese card, we’ll round up the value of the purchase to the nearest whole amount and automatically transfer the spare change to a designated pot. 

### Tailored home insurance with Luko
![Luko-Blog-Post](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/7iSUelep8SuJCEFFP4F47M/41d7a02d68c9c0379faf3447cd83ddbb/Luko-Blog-Post.png)

If you live in France, you can now benefit from Luko, which offers simple, transparent and tailored online home insurance. With Luko, you can sign up and get insurance coverage in two minutes, get paid for a claim in two hours and have damages repaired in just two days! Monese Premium customers can benefit from two months of free home insurance, while our Classic and Simple customers get one month. You can sign up via the Monese Hub on the app, and you'll be redirected to the Luko website to complete your subscription.

### Speed up your commute across London’s TfL network

With [Apple Pay](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/06/monese-apple-pay-more-countries) on your phone, you can now speed up your commute on London Underground trains and buses: no need to open an app, wake your device or use Face ID or Touch ID. Simply hold your iPhone or Apple Watch over the yellow card readers on [TfL](https://tfl.gov.uk/) and go! Express Mode for Apple Pay is available for personal GBP and EUR Monese cards and works across all TfL services, including the Underground, buses and trams. Learn how to enable Express Mode on your iPhone or Apple Watch [here](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2020/01/express-mode-apple-pay).

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### And finally...
We've squashed 75 bugs along with other fixes and improvements this month. You can now:

- easily add your card to Google Pay right from your Monese Android app

Blog post > Your January monthly update

With Apple Pay on your phone, mobile payments are secure, quick and easy - and now paying for your journeys has gotten even faster and more convenient! 
Speed up your commute on London Underground trains and buses with Express Mode for Apple Pay. Simply hold your iPhone or Apple Watch over the yellow card readers on [TfL](https://tfl.gov.uk/) and go! No need to open an app, wake your device or use Face ID or Touch ID.

The new feature is available for personal GBP and EUR Monese cards and works across all TfL services, including the Underground, buses and trams. 

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### How to set up Express Mode
To use Express Mode, first add your Monese card to your Apple Wallet. To set up Apple Pay, simply open the Monese app and navigate to the ‘Card’ screen. Here you’ll be able to tap the ‘Add to Apple Wallet’ button, follow the on-screen instructions &mdash; and you’re done! Open your Apple Wallet and you’ll see your Monese card there, ready for use. You can also set up your card straight from the Apple Wallet app by tapping the ‘+’ icon and following the instructions.

Once you’ve set up Apple Pay, you’re ready to enable Express Mode. Follow these simple steps:

__Step 1__: On iPhone or Apple Watch, open your ‘Settings’.

__Step 2__: Tap ‘Wallet & Apple Pay’ and select ‘Express Travel Card’.

__Step 3__: Choose your Monese card and confirm it with Touch ID, Face ID or your passcode.

### Make safe and fast payments
Using Apple Pay is simple and works with the devices you use every day. You can use it on iPhone (SE or higher), Apple Watch, iPad and Mac to make fast and convenient purchases in stores, apps and online. You can find a list of compatible Apple Pay devices [here](https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT208531). 

When you make a purchase, Apple Pay uses a device-specific number and unique transaction code. Your full card number is never stored on your device or on Apple servers, and it can’t be shared with merchants. Apple Pay doesn’t keep transaction information that can be tied back to you, ensuring all purchases are private.

If you live in one of the [31 countries](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/06/monese-apple-pay-more-countries) where Monese cards can be added to Apple Pay, you’ll be able to use it wherever you see the Apple Pay logo or the contactless symbol.

Let us know how you like this new feature. Reach out to us on [Facebook](https://facebook.com/MyMonese), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese), [Instagram](https://instagram.com/monese) or email us at  [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com).

Pay even faster on Transport for London with Express Mode for Apple Pay

Blog post > Pay even faster on Transport for London with Express Mode for Apple Pay

A few months ago, we launched [pots](https://monese.com/blog/2019/06/saving-money-monese-pots) to make putting money aside easier. Whether you’re saving for a new gadget, your dream holiday or a gift for that special someone in your life, you can easily transfer money to your pot to ensure you’re saving and aren’t spending until you’re ready to. We know how much you’re enjoying this feature, so we wanted to take it one step further&hellip; or rather, a few steps. Read on to find out how we’ve made pots better.

### Create multiple pots
![Saving-Improved-Pots-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1CSaqJMSADu9bHMUl5XsqR/8ae5f5ce6f1d6c837583b3caa2986c4a/Saving-Improved-Pots-2.png)

We understand you might be saving for several things at the same time. You could be saving for something as large as a holiday in Ibiza this summer, and something as small as that new coffee machine you’ve been eyeing for the past few months. To help you reach all your different savings goals at once and even faster, you can now create up to 10 different pots for each of your currency accounts. That means if you hold a GBP account, EUR account and a business account, it’s a total of 30 different pots and 30 times your savings! 

You can name and create a specific goal for each of your pots to ensure you’re putting away the right amount of money towards each of your objectives. Whenever you put money in your pot, the app will automatically calculate and show you what you’ve saved so far. This should give you better insight into your savings, helping you stay on top of them and motivating you to gather the rest of it quickly. 

### Set up a recurring payment to your pot
![Recurring-3](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/35NiQZppeV7GdT9KB3iJDJ/e8b24e46484a52ec8249afcc70b5d365/Recurring-3.png)

Ever forgotten to send money to your pot or worse &mdash; spent it before you had the chance to store it away? Don’t feel bad. It happens to the best of us. That’s why we’ve now come up with a recurring payments option, which will automatically move money from your account into your pot. Knowing when to expect a set amount of money to be withdrawn from your account and moved into your pot should also make budgeting much more manageable. Your recurring payments can be set to a particular day per month or even week. You’ll never forget to save again! 

### Round up your card transactions
![Saving-Improved-Round-Up-4](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/35XZF8WPYBMf2mXFueQ1zn/562f63c78191cc845648b4e17ef93813/Saving-Improved-Round-Up-4.jpg)

If you’re finding it difficult to set aside a specific amount of money but would like to start saving, you can try our new round-up feature. Every time you pay with your Monese card, we’ll round up the value to the nearest whole amount and automatically transfer the spare change to a designated pot. You can even choose to multiply the spare change amount by up to 10, so you store more away! 

### Save with interest

It’s sweet when you have money set aside so that you have it when you need it. What’s even sweeter is earning interest on that money! That’s why we’ve partnered with Raisin to let you choose from more than 500 savings products so you can save with interest earned! Open the Monese app, head to ‘Savings’ and then tap on ‘Savings with interest’. For now, this handy feature is available on personal accounts for customers based in the UK, Germany, Austria, France, the Netherlands and Spain, but it will be coming to other countries soon. Stay tuned!

Pots have gotten even better

Can you believe it’s the end of 2019 already? While for many December is a month for relaxing and taking a much-needed break, at Monese, we haven’t wound down just yet! Our teams have been hard at work, preparing the coolest new features to help you manage your money more easily.

### Spend and save together with joint accounts
![Joint-accounts](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3l9mhT8vAwuoPm94XEdWnO/b795b78b1f07ca2522a77ad5eddeba4a/Joint-Accounts-5555.jpg)

This month we introduced [joint accounts](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/12/launching-joint-accounts) to help you better manage any money you share with a partner, housemate or anyone else in your life. This is perfect for friends or couples who share expenses or are saving for something special together. With a joint account, you and a friend can set up monthly budgets, spending notifications &mdash; even direct debits! You’ll also share the same balance and allowances, which include:

- up to €/£ 200 per month in free global ATM withdrawals
- up to €/£ 2,000 per month in foreign currency card spending
- free and instant transfers to other Monese account

Joint accounts are available to customers in the UK and the European Economic Area except for France but will be coming here very soon.

### Make your virtual card

![1920-Montly-round-up-Dec-3](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/20s7wufSuBxnJpPzPGc2mB/2062c6ddd34b5d43ebddcfc0969d5257/1920-Montly-round-up-Dec-3.png)

For a new simple and secure way to pay right from your phone, we’ve launched [virtual cards](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/12/create-virtual-card) this December for all of Europe! A virtual card adds an extra level of security and protection when shopping online as your virtual card number will be different than the one on your physical debit card. With your virtual card, you can:

- make payments and shop online
- shop in-store via Apple Pay or Google Pay
- receive instant notifications when you make a transaction 
- easily lock and unlock the virtual card at any time straight from the app

### Hide your balance in privacy mode

![1920-Montly-round-up-Dec-4](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/7uLND7wCETg7bkmQo3AGrK/937f2ec6f71e13228459367ba059d592/1920-Montly-round-up-Dec-4.jpg)

If you’re out in public and need to check your Monese app, you can now do so safely with the new Privacy Mode. With this handy feature enabled, you’ll be able to open the app and shake your phone to hide your balance and other transaction amounts. You can also open the app directly in Privacy Mode to be extra vigilant.

### Find Monese friends near you

![1920-Montly-round-up-Dec-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1Yo0PAIgPwkyKzI5HOyKq6/ab907ce5386f376465496f8c1912de1f/1920-Montly-round-up-Dec-2.jpg)

Need to send, request or receive money from a friend? Now you can do so even faster! With the option to find friends nearby, you can easily locate other Monese users around you who are discoverable via Bluetooth. Once found, tap on your friend and either send or request your money. No need to enter any extra details &mdash; much more convenient!

### And finally...

We've also made more than 81 other bug fixes and improvements, including a patch for those of you who send money to Poland in PLN. Other tweaks and enhancements include: 

- a better view of what you're rounding up to your [Pots](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/06/saving-money-monese-pots)
- grouping your contacts to manage payees more easily
- adding your Monese cards to [Google Pay](https://monese.com/eu/blog/2019/09/google-pay-europe) straight from the Android app
- sending money to Canada in Canadian Dollars (CAD)
- making it easier to find retailers where you can collect [Avios points](https://monese.com/blog/2019/02/introducing-avios)

That’s all for December!

We’d love to hear your thoughts on these refinements plus any suggestions you may have for future features you’d like to see in the new year!

We’ll be back with another update in 2020!

Here’s a look at all the latest features we’ve been rolling out this month

We’re happy to announce that you can now create a virtual card for your Monese account! With just a few taps on your phone, you’ll be able to set up and start using your Monese virtual card right away for a simple and safe payment process directly from your mobile.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

## What’s a virtual card?  
Virtual cards are another tool to make managing your money safer and easier. Just like a regular card, a virtual card has a unique 16-digit number (different from your physical debit card). A virtual card has almost the same functionalities a real card would. You can:

- use it to make payments online
- shop in-store via Apple Pay or Google Pay 
- get instant notifications when you make a transaction 
- easily lock and unlock it at any time straight from the app

## Why use a virtual card?
![Add virtual card to Google Pay](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1MKIcC0YXQNiYpYb7zwBmG/2c72d4901eb5a9bfdee6e30fee5032ee/Virtual-card-set-up2.png)

A virtual card provides a fantastic alternative for a simple, safer, and faster transaction online. Because your virtual card number is different than the one on your physical card, it offers an extra layer of security when shopping on the web. You can lock it immediately after each use to prevent any further transactions and unlock it again whenever you need it next. Having access to your card details in full right on your phone also means you can check out online at any time without having to go and grab your wallet.

Additionally, you can link your virtual card to Apple Pay and Google Pay – this means you can also use your virtual card wherever contactless payments are accepted. Virtual cards can also be linked instantly to your [PayPal](https://monese.com/blog/2019/07/monese-with-paypal "Monese with the power of Paypal") account. 

## How to set up a virtual card
![Virtual card set up](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1C8GBsIoShDJs7XyblvUvX/20df27e244a1e34f751525028499b326/Virtual-Card-Set-Up1.png)

Setting up your virtual card is simple and free. You can do it in just a couple of steps, directly on the Monese app:

__Step 1:__ Open your Monese app and head to the ‘Card’ tab where you should see your Monese debit card. 

__Step 2:__ Swipe left to the ‘virtual card’ option to create your card. 

It’s that easy! Once your virtual card is set up, you will also be able to quickly add it to Apple Pay or Google Pay.

Every Monese customer can set up one virtual card per currency account. Currently, in order to set up a virtual card, you’ll first need to have your physical card; but stay tuned for more updates on this front.

We’re constantly working to bring you more tools and features to help you manage your money more simply. Make sure you have the latest version of the Monese app installed for access to our newest releases and updates. 

If you have any ideas or suggestions to improve our app, we’d love to hear them. Let us know via [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese "Monese official Facebook page"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese official Twitter page"), [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/ "Monese official Instagram page") or email us at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com "Email us")!

Introducing another easy and secure way to pay — all from your phone! 

Create a virtual card

Blog post > Create a virtual card

We’re excited to introduce Monese joint accounts to customers across the UK and the European Economic Area (joint accounts are currently not available to Monese customers in France, but will be coming very soon). If you need a shared account to spend or save together, we have now made it simpler for friends, couples, flatmates and other duos to open a joint account on their phones and pay for shared bills, expenses and other joint spendings.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### How it works
![JA visual-1](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/6T63ySwqblNArnDNYin6tB/70ec80e9c78b02121db8b0b060e2b246/JA_visual-1.jpg)  

Monese joint accounts make shared spending much easier. With advanced features such as shared spending notifications and transaction feeds, you and a friend, spouse, parent, or housemate, can stay on top of your expenses and set up monthly budgets to reach your savings goals together. 

Joint account users will share an account number so they can both get their salaries paid directly into the account, set up direct debits and manage other payments and bills together. Joint accounts also share the same balance and allowances, which include: 

- up to €/£ 200 per month free global ATM withdrawals
- up to €/£ 2,000 per month foreign currency card spending
- free and instant transfers to other Monese accounts

The Monese joint account is made for pairs, meaning it can only be opened between two Monese customers.

### How to open a Joint Account
![JA visual-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1xZwJvjfpxITWug2CkS42H/0da3278da30b02eb86faf32cd0cdd5b6/JA_visual-2.jpg)

Opening a joint account is fast and easy. The great news is that you don’t need to be in the same place to get started. However, both people will need to have their own Monese personal account first. 

If you’re a Monese customer and want to open a joint account with another Monese customer, you can simply send an invitation to the person to open a joint account together. If the person you wish to open a joint account with isn’t with us yet, you can easily invite them to join Monese. Once they’re in, you can then invite them to open a joint account with you.

You can open a joint account in three quick and simple steps: 

__Step 1:__ Open the Monese app and add your new joint account by tapping the ‘Account’ button on the top left-hand side of the home screen (choose ‘Add account’). 

__Step 2:__ Select your desired currency (every Monese customer can open one joint account per currency). 

__Step 3:__ Pick the friend (or invite a new person) you wish to open a joint account with. 

That’s it! 

Once you’ve sent the invitation to your friend, they will receive a notification with your request. They will need to accept so the account can be opened, giving you both access to the shared account and all its features. 

### One account&mdash;two Monese cards
![JA visual-3](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/26p5RNjy8QYwlVFCgwIwzt/bb27e09bb3de7fc4fd371f595380ddcf/JA_visual-3.jpg)

Once you have successfully opened your new Monese joint account on your phone, each person will receive their own shiny, rose gold contactless Mastercard to shop, spend and use separately (remember to link the cards to Apple Pay or Google Pay to make smart and secure transactions with your phone). 

A joint account is completely free to open. Right now, you only pay for card delivery, which is €/£4.95 – and the allowances are the same as those of the Simple plan (more on our pricing [here](https://monese.com/pricing)). Bear in mind that these allowances are per *joint account* and not per person or card. 

### Invite your friends and earn money 
Don’t forget to spread the word about the new Monese joint account with friends and family. You can earn up to £20 whenever someone you’ve invited joins and starts using their Monese account!

We will be adding more features to our joint accounts in the coming months, so stay tuned! In the meantime, we would love to hear what you think about them, and what you would like to see next. Just reach out on [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese/), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese), [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/) or drop us an email at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com).

Another month has gone by and it’s been packed with exciting feature releases. So without further ado, here’s what’s new with your Monese app this November...

### Add a virtual card to your GBP account
![1920-Montly-round-up-Nov-1](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/68ueGzcpdOj04shfF8QImO/d78194c49ba20127ae7a3a164b66278d/1920-Montly-round-up-Nov-1.jpg)

You can now create a virtual card for your GBP account! Use it when you’re shopping online for that perfect deal, or when making contactless payments with your phone using Apple Pay or Google Pay. You can easily lock it when you’re not using it, which should give you an extra layer of security for your spending. There are more exciting updates coming soon on this front!

### A new and improved referral program
![Picture-1](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/5O0NZE5x2mqBbUU5D7GQYM/1ac4df781112fb831e4ae48bf1ae8e5d/Picture-1.png)

We’ve launched a new and improved version of our referral program! You’ll continue to be rewarded for bringing in friends who join and start using Monese, once they’ve made the first transaction with their new Monese card – and they’ll continue to get a welcome bonus as well. However, you’ll both be able to get *more* rewards when those you invite continue to spend with Monese! You can find all the details [here](https://monese.com/blog/2019/11/referral-program-update), and in the ‘Earn’ section of your Monese app.

### Business credit with iwoca
![Picture-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1clOoe98miyQSssvqJ2E89/9b093c92627bcc28d4e902200897f7c3/Picture-2.png)

If you’re a Monese Business customer in the UK, you can now apply for business credit with our partner [iwoca](https://monese.com/blog/2019/11/business-loans-credit-iwoca) – to get access to the cash needed to grow your business even more. Applying is easy and you can do it straight from your Monese app!

### Send money to Hong Kong
![1920-Montly-round-up-Nov-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/2NuwUNQ8twoXjyYVMK4osy/1e82bc5537930fa839dc008280d33532/1920-Montly-round-up-Nov-2.jpg)

You can now use your Monese app send money to Hong Kong, at great rates, in Hong Kong dollars (HK$)! You can do this straight from your Monese app, alongside 17 other international currencies. Just head to the ‘Pay’ tab in the app to start.

And finally, we’ve also made 99 other improvements and bug fixes this month, to make your app run more smoothly than ever.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

We’re always looking to improve your experience in every way we can – so we’d love to hear what else you’d like to see in the future. Just come and say hello on our [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese/), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese) or [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/) (or drop us an email at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com)).

Zmiany w naszym programie Polecaj i zarabiaj

It’s said that autumn is the season to find contentment at home by paying attention to what we already have. Nevertheless, between hot chocolate mornings and toasty marshmallow evenings, we’ve been busy adding even more features and services to the Monese app.

Here’s a summary of all the things we’ve been releasing this October...

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### New EUR account numbers & Direct Debits
We’ve introduced a better, more localised service across Europe – starting with the [rollout of European account numbers](https://monese.com/blog/2019/10/new-eu-iban-account-number) for those of you based outside the UK and France using Monese EUR accounts. These account details can be found in-app under ‘Account details’. The new account numbers (IBANs) begin with the letters ‘BE’. 

This won’t affect how your account works – everything’s been designed so that cards and accounts function as normal.

It also means that you’ll now be able to set up Direct Debits from your personal EUR account by tapping ‘More’ from the app home screen. There you’ll find an option to create new Direct Debits – as well as manage existing ones – helping make regular bills and subscriptions one less thing to worry about.

### Link your French PayPal account

As part of our ongoing [partnership with PayPal](https://monese.com/blog/2019/07/monese-with-paypal), those of you living in France can now link your PayPal account to Monese. This means PayPal balances and transactions can be easily viewed right next to your other accounts, with the added bonus of being able to link your Monese cards to your PayPal wallet instantly, straight from the app.

### Send money to India

You can now send money to India, at great rates, in Indian Rupees (INR). This option now appears in your Monese app, along with 16 other international currencies. Just head to the ‘Pay’ tab in the app to start! 

### And finally...

We’ve made over 93 other improvements and bug fixes this month, including:

- A smoother app experience for those of you using iOS 13
- The possibility to set up future payments to your friends and family (this is live on Android, and coming very soon to iOS)

That’s all for this October update!

While we turn our attention to more feature-packed releases in the coming weeks, feel free to reach out and tell us your thoughts on how Monese is working for you. We’d also love to hear what else you’d like to see in the future – come and say hello on our [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese/), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese) or [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/) (or drop us an email at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com)).

Fresh updates will come at the end of November - stay tuned and we’ll see you soon!

Here’s a detailed guide to every new feature we’ve been adding over the past month

Your October monthly update

1920-Montly-round-up-Oct

Blog post > Your October monthly update

Farewell summer, hello autumn! September has meant a return to the old routine for many of us. We’ve been at it as well – albeit in slightly warmer clothing – powering up the Monese app with even more features you’ve been requesting.

Here’s a quick rundown of everything that we’ve released this month, starting with...

### Google Pay available in 12 countries
![Monese card Google Pay](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/5p1KO9ie5JOcMVoCdrBnEm/41459a18d27a988949fa450c6ed27ba3/Google-Pay-across-Europe_full-screen.jpg)

[Google Pay](https://monese.com/blog/2019/09/google-pay-europe "Monese Google Pay across Europe") is the fast, simple way to pay in millions of places – on sites, in apps, and in stores. We enabled this last year for UK customers, but you can now add your Monese cards to Google Pay if you live in one of these 12 countries: Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Spain and the UK.

### Save money with Raisin
![Monese Pots](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1ZE67MQvNki7S01wtfnkJb/3b57579fd7eba3d4c4b3011a4e8fcb6a/Pots_illustration_1920x1080.jpg)

We’ve already made it easy for you to put a little bit of money aside with Monese Pots. Now, having partnered up with savings marketplace provider [Raisin](https://www.raisin.com/ "Raisin homepage"), we’re helping take the hassle out of interest-bearing savings too. Available via the Monese Hub, you can access a great choice of competitive savings products. The feature is available to Monese personal account customers in the UK, Germany, Austria, France, the Netherlands and Spain – and there's more to come!

### Link your German PayPal account
![PayPal balance Monese app](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/3PhEQfwZ6cLbcPsWmpgM71/c6f471d608207d2c9dfb94138c83d8bd/PayPal-Press-Release-1.jpg)

You may remember that we [recently partnered with PayPal](https://monese.com/blog/2019/07/monese-with-paypal "Monese with the power of Paypal"), so you can get all the freedom of Monese, with the added scale, speed and security of PayPal. If you live in Germany, you can now easily view your PayPal balance & transactions, as well as add your Monese card to your PayPal wallet instantly. 

### Estonian language support
![Flag-Estosnia](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/6ZKJWNEbaQrWISxxU1ZiB1/1dc283b65589ac9b7dcb7ab731baa759/Flag-Estosnia-Header_2x-100.jpg)

Tere! We’re always working toward creating a mobile money app that speaks your language – and now that includes Estonian. You can now use your Monese app – or talk to our support team – in 14 languages. Väga tore!

### And finally...
We’ve released over 90 other improvements and bug fixes this month, including:

- Making it easier to get your salary into your Monese account – just open the app, go to ‘Add money’ and you’ll be able to immediately share your account details with your employer
- Displaying your account settings in a clearer way
- You can now add your Monese cards to Apple Pay if you live in the Netherlands ([or in 30 other countries](https://monese.com/blog/2019/06/monese-apple-pay-more-countries "Apple Pay for more Monese customers"))

And that’s it for our September update.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

In the meantime, we’re always looking to improve your experience in every way we can – so we’d love to hear your thoughts on how Monese is working for you and what other extra features you’d like to see in the future. If anything springs to mind, you can always reach out to us on social media – via our [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese/ "Monese official Facebook page"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese official Twitter page") or [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/ "Monese official Instagram page") (or drop up as an email at [community@monese.com](mailto:community@monese.com "Email us")). 

We’ll see you at the end of October for the next one!

Another month has been and gone, and we’re back with an update on everything we’ve been releasing

Blog post > Your September monthly update

__March 2020 update:__ It's now available in three more: Croatia, Slovakia and the Czech Republic.

Google Pay is the fast, simple way to pay in millions of places – on sites, in apps, and in stores. It brings together everything you need at the checkout and protects your payment information with multiple layers of security (more on that later).

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

### In which countries does Monese work with Google Pay?

You can now add your Monese cards to Google Pay if you live in one of the following countries:

🇧🇪 Belgium

🇭🇷 Croatia

🇨🇿 Czech Republic

🇩🇰 Denmark

🇫🇮 Finland

🇫🇷 France

🇩🇪 Germany

🇮🇪 Ireland

🇮🇹 Italy

🇳🇴 Norway

🇵🇱 Poland

🇸🇰 Slovakia

🇸🇪 Sweden

🇪🇸 Spain

🇬🇧 United Kingdom

### Pay quickly and easily
![Google-Pay-logo-contactless](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/5HUa5eXt4PTtk5ZUQsCf08/b7213fc1432505aa1e6946c79c5ac202/Google-Pay-logo-contactless.jpg)

With Google Pay, there’s no need to dig around for your cards – you can pay quickly and easily with the device that’s already in your hand.

Google Pay works at millions of places around the world, from retail stores to corner shops. Use it anywhere contactless payments are accepted – just look for the contactless symbol. All you need to do is wake up your Android phone and hold it near the terminal until you see a check mark. You don’t even need to open the app.

You can also use it to pay in apps and on the web, wherever Google Pay is accepted. Just choose Google Pay at checkout, confirm your purchase and then you’re good to go.

And you’ll still get all the great features your Monese cards come with, including our generous fee-free allowances – so you can spend abroad without having to worry about hidden fees. You can find out more about our pricing plans [here](https://monese.com/eu/pricing).

### Encrypted and secured by Google

Google Pay protects your payment info with multiple layers of security, using one of the world’s most advanced security infrastructures to help keep your account safe.

Google Pay doesn’t send your actual card number with your payment. Instead, an encrypted virtual account number (also called a *token*) is used to represent your information – so your real card details stay safe. And if your phone ever gets lost or stolen, you can lock and erase it with [Find My Device](https://www.google.com/android/find?u=0).

### How to get started

Adding your Monese cards to Google Pay is fast and hassle-free. You can follow these easy steps:

- Download the Google Pay app [from Google Play](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.walletnfcrel&hl=en-gb)
- Follow the instructions to add a card or another payment method
- Verify your card if needed. Then you’re all set!

To pay in stores with Google Pay, your Android phone must work with NFC (near-field communication). You might also have to manually turn on the NFC feature to get it working – you can find out more [here](https://support.google.com/pay/answer/7643995?hl=en&ref_topic=7625138).

We’re planning to add support for more countries soon – but in the meantime, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to our [Customer Support team](https://monese.com/contact)!

You can now add your Monese cards to Google Pay™ in 15 countries

While the weather might have been somewhat patchy this August, our spirits haven’t been dampened in light of another exciting roll call of new features – all added to Monese over the past month.

So here to provide a quick retrospective on all our recent releases, here’s your August monthly update, starting with...

## All-new Monese Pots
![Pots illustration 1920x1080](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/1ZE67MQvNki7S01wtfnkJb/3b57579fd7eba3d4c4b3011a4e8fcb6a/Pots_illustration_1920x1080.jpg)

Monese Pots are a great way to put some money aside, whether you simply want to keep some spare cash in reserve, or you’re making an effort to save for something in particular. And now you can save for more than one thing at a time – by creating multiple pots, each with custom names and saving goals. 

We’ve also included a way to boost your savings, by giving you an option to save spare change to one of your Monese Pots whenever you make a card payment. These transactions can be rounded up to the nearest whole number, with the extra cash going into a designated pot. You can now access them straight from the home screen!

## The Monese Notification Centre

Say hello to the best way to stay informed about everything Monese. Our new Notification Centre will keep you in the loop with service information, feature updates, promotions and important account activity. Because we only want to be helpful when you need us to be, we’ve given you the option to turn alerts on and off – although we do suggest keeping them turned on for a better overall experience.

## Send money to Switzerland 
![1920-UK-EU-FX-Copy-2](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/5g03nknELLacdDDb2XJn2s/24463adc8a982c7aac3f81db7b2ffabd/1920-UK-EU-FX-Copy-2.jpg)

High-end wristwatches, luxury chocolate, or a new fondue kit&hellip; There’s plenty of reasons to send money to Switzerland. And now you can do just that within the Monese app – where you’ll be able to make transfers to Switzerland in Swiss francs (CHF). Just head to the ‘Pay’ tab to start!

## European Portuguese language support
![Flag-PT](//images.ctfassets.net/96dxy75w1gjr/4KWbNGHUEcHDGZ9axPW5AR/82e69d0afe69a21e87430c78de9c07af/Flag-PT.jpg)

We want Monese to be the financial service that speaks your language. So, adding to our existing roster of 12 fully supported languages, you can now choose to select European Portuguese as your preferred language in the app and in any conversations with our Customer Support team. Tão bom!

## And finally...

We’ve powered through over 85 other improvements and bug fixes this month, including:

- Making it easier to move money between your accounts (head over to the ‘Pay’ tab, then choose ‘Move money’)
- Simplifying the account switching screen for quicker navigation
- Adding the option to see your spending overview on a weekly basis

And that’s just about it for another monthly update.

<div data-comp="signup"></div>

In the meantime, we’re always looking to improve your app experience in every way we can – so we’d love to hear your thoughts on how Monese is working for you and what other extra features you’d like to see in the future. If anything springs to mind, you can always reach out to us on social media – via our [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/MyMonese/ "Monese official Facebook page"), [Twitter](https://twitter.com/monese "Monese official Twitter page") or [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/monese/ "Monese official Instagram page"). 

See you at the end of September for the next one!
