Together, with whoever

A partner, spouse or someone who lives in your house. Shared accounts are for soulmates and housemates or anyone else as long as they’re eligible.

With a joint account you both get a pearlescent white debit card to use for your shared spending and saving.

Share, don’t split

Household bills and subscriptions or pet supplies. The weekly food shop, a meal out or booking a trip.

A joint bank account saves you needing to ask for money or wondering who bought what.

Joint account key info

Find other important info about joint accounts in our Help section.

You’re financially linked to whoever you open the shared account with

When you open a Monzo Joint Account with someone, you become linked to them financially. That means you can be jointly credit-scored, and their credit history can have an impact on yours.

Overdrafts are only available for personal accounts

You can have an overdraft in your personal account but not your joint account.

You need photo ID and a personal account to open a joint account

We accept passports, driving licenses (provisionals are fine), national ID cards and biometric resident permits. You also need to be at least 18 years of age and live in the UK full time.

You’re joint owners of whatever’s in your joint account

Even if one of you contributes a lot more money, legally anything in the account is split equally. It’s important you trust who you’re planning to open a joint account with.

You can close your joint account in the app

First, you or the person you share your account with need to withdraw all the money from your joint account. After that you’re free to go ahead and close the account from in the Monzo app.
