Monzo bank have launched a new card, not to be confused with their landmark pre-paid card. This one is a full on, proper, contact-less, bright orange debit card. <\/p>\n<p>Over 40,000 people open a Monzo account every week because of the clever budgeting, easy low-cost travel, savings interest and human help, whenever you need it.<\/p>\n<p>I have one personally and the new way of banking has got me convinced, there is loads you can do with this &#8216;app based&#8217; bank account and if you would like to find out more. Click here to <a href=\"https:\/\/join.monzo.com\/r\/ym85hxg\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">visit the Monzo<\/a> page.<\/p>\n<h2>Can You Hire A Car With A Monzo Card?<\/h2>\n<p>What I would like to discuss is, paying for a rental car with a Monzo card. We at indigo have been banging our drum for years about making car hire more accessible to the masses and enabling our customers to <a href=\"https:\/\/thealternativeagency.co.uk\/indigo\/debit-card-car-hire\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">pay for their rental with a debit card<\/a> was the first step. Now though, things are changing, the Monzo bank is only online, they do not have a branch I can walk into and pay money in or ask for a new cheque book. Everything is online and via the smartphone app (which is brilliant by the way).<\/p>\n<p>The only physical difference between the new Monzo card and your current debit card is that this one doesn&#8217;t show your account number and sort code. It has your name, card number and expiry date, chip, Pin and contact-less which are the only things you need to make a financial transaction.<\/p>\n<p>The missing account number had us worried because we have spent a lot of time and effort confirming with suppliers what is and isn&#8217;t acceptable and having the account details on the card was always a must. However, having spoken to two of the biggest names in car rental, I can confirm that the new Monzo Debit Card is acceptable for <a href=\"https:\/\/thealternativeagency.co.uk\/indigo\/uk-car-hire\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">car rental in the UK<\/a> and I have it on good authority that if a supplier did allow debit card transactions before Monzo cards then they will continue to do so, it may even convince other suppliers to get into the 21st century.<\/p>\n<p>NOT ALL SUPPLIERS ACCEPT DEBIT CARDS, EVEN FEWER ACCEPT MONZO CARDS. IF YOU NEED TO HIRE A CAR AND WANT TO PAY WITH A DEBIT CARD THEN PLEASE CONTACT US BEFORE MAKING A BOOKING, WE WILL ENSURE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE CORRECT SUPPLIER.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What Is A Monzo card?
