Free £10 when you refer a friend
How to get a free £5 with Monzo?
- Share your unique referral link with a friend (this link can be found in your Monzo app).
- Ensure your friend accepts the invite and applies for a Monzo account within 30 days.
- They then have 30 days to download the Monzo app, apply for a current account or business account as well as add money and pay for something using Monzo (no minimum amount).
- Your friend must make their first card payment within 30 days.
- You’ll both receive £5.
There is a limit of 10 successful referrals per referee, meaning you could earn up to £150. After you have exceeded 10 referrals, you can continue to refer friends and family but neither of you will receive any bonuses.
About Monzo
