Monzo tests 'easy bank transfer' for moving money into account from other banks

Source: Monzo

We're making it easier to add money to your Monzo account.

We're calling it easy bank transfer, and it's available to test in Monzo Labs today!

Now there's no need to remember your account details, go looking for your wallet, or worry whether you've typed your details in correctly. Instead, we'll guide you through the process and help you make a bank transfer to your Monzo account in just a few taps.
An overview of how easy bank transfers work

You can use easy bank transfer to add money to your personal, joint, and business accounts.

Select your other bank from a list, and tell us how much you want to move.

We'll take you securely to your other bank, so you can approve the transfer.

Your money will usually arrive instantly, but it can take a bit longer depending on which bank you're sending money from.

It's even easier if you're logged in to your other bank's app, because you won't have to type in your login details.

Under the hood, easy bank transfers use Faster Payments — the same reliable, secure payments network that powers bank transfers in the UK. This means that your transfer will typically arrive straight away, but it could take a bit longer in some situations.
