4 ways Monzo makes payday even better

Nothing beats payday, and that satisfying feeling when your money finally makes it into your account.

You wouldn’t think it could get any better. But if you get paid into your Monzo account, it just might.

1. You can get paid an entire day early

If you ever feel like payday can’t come soon enough, you're not alone. And the best way Monzo makes payday even better is by bringing it forward by a whole entire day!

If you get paid through Monzo, we can advance you the money at 4pm on the day before it’s due.

The afternoon before payday we'll send you a notification. And as long as you get paid by Bacs, you can tap through and instantly get your money – a day earlier than you’re meant to. A heads up: we can stop offering get paid early, or change this service, at any time.

All you need to do is get paid into your Monzo account. If you’re about to join Monzo, you can add your salary when you sign up. Or if you’re already with us, either give your account number and sort code to your employer, or switch fully to Monzo without lifting a finger.

Already get paid into Monzo? Just keep an eye out in your app the next time payday's coming up.

2. We’ll help you do your life admin

You can neatly sort your money between spending, bills and savings, without leaving your Monzo account.

We’ve built a feature called Salary Sorter, that helps you divide up your spending, bills and savings to suit you, all in one convenient place. So you don’t need to worry about accidentally spending the rent, or shift around between accounts to see where your money is. You can even setup your Monzo direct debits and regular payments to be sent from these pots.

We’ll make doing all your payday admin easy, so you can concentrate on celebrating instead!

If you get paid into Monzo already, you’ll see the option to sort your salary next time you get paid.

3. You can pay yourself first (and actually save)

Some people call this the golden rule of money. Paying yourself first means putting money straight into your savings, as soon as you get paid.

If you get paid into your Monzo account, you can set aside your savings as soon as you get paid. Just use Salary Sorter or set up a regular payment into one of your Pots.

You can even open a Savings Pot to earn interest and see your money grow!

4. That sound that means your money’s landed in your account

So, so satisfying.
