Cash referral bonus · Banking
Mystery £10–£50
Get a random reward of £10, £20 or £50 paid into your new account when you sign up through a referral link and make one card payment (no minimum amount) within 30 days. Monzo won't tell you which amount you've won until the referral completes.

Monzo's refer-a-friend scheme is one of the longest-running in UK banking, but it's no longer a flat payout — since February 2025 it's run as a mystery reward. Open your first Monzo account through a referral link, make one card payment of any amount within 30 days, and Monzo randomly assigns a reward from a published table: £10 for 94% of people, £20 for 5%, and £50 for the lucky 1%. You won't find out which tier you've landed until the referral shows as complete in the app, and whatever you get, the friend who referred you gets exactly the same amount. There's still no minimum deposit and no salary requirement — the qualifying payment can be a coffee. The hot-coral card comes with instant spending notifications, fee-free spending abroad on the Mastercard rate, and Pots for squirrelling money away.
