If you need a direct deposit form instead, you can create one right in the app. Answer a few questions about how much of your paycheck you want to deposit and we’ll handle the rest. Tap "Add Money", then "Add Salary" to get started.

How does get paid early work? ⚙️
Before you get actually paid, the federal reserve works with financial institutions on how much and when you get your paycheck. Some banks will hold the funds until a specified date from your employer before depositing money into your account.
If you get paid early with Monzo, your money becomes available right away instead of being held until the specified date.
Heads up: we can stop offering or change this get paid early service at any time.
