    Does it have to be an online transaction or can I just tap pay for something in a shop?

    I paid for something in a shop. I didn't tap though, it was a normal chip and pin transaction.

    Is anyone going to keep the account going after getting the free €15? I can see any reason for using it. I have far too many fintec accounts as it is.

    I'll keep the card but I'll continue using revolut as my day to day card. Best of the lot.

    They'll all probably partner with different companies for marketing and offer benefits or discounts.
    I will use my Monese for Paypal payments.

    Got my €15 for doing an online transaction so all good

    How long after the transaction did you receive the €15?

    Looks like you can't add credit card.

    It is a bummer as with Revolut I topu up when I need to use it.

    Where do you enter the code? I set up account and tried to enter it in the promotions tab (on left side when you open profile icon). I just get an error message saying its invalid. Wondering now if i missed an earlier step where I should have entered it?

    Topped up my Revolut and got 15 back

    I signed up last weekend & got a message to say automatic verification had failed. It said they'd manually check my details & that it usually takes 1 business day & that I'd get a notification when verified.
    It still not verified & I haven't heard anything since, anyone else have this issue ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 811 ✭✭✭Rock Paper Scissors


    I just tried to sign up but when I open the app it's asking for a temporary password, where do I find this?

    Also texts from Monese don't seem to be coming through to my phone

    i topped up my monese with 10e from my revolut, sent that 10e back then to my revolut via iban

    will this work to get the 15e credit from monese?

    Doesnt allow me to use it on the phone for tap payments. My Mastercard credit card doesnt either. Is it a Mastercard thing with google pay?

    One of my friends is also having problem with processing his video since yesterday evening, whereas my account was sorted in 5 minutes a week ago.

    Afaik it's only available in the UK currently for Gpay. Possibly available for Apple Pay in Ireland alright.

    I had trouble with safetynet. I have my phone rooted, Revolut and N26 work, but only got around to activating this yesterday. I have Magisk with Monese selected in Magisk Hide, rebooted and reinstalled it.. :confused:
    Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I'll have another look later when I get more time, but I can't figure out what is stopping it.

    Yeah, I couldn't really get to see it today as I was mad busy all day, I will have another go when I get home. It could be the rom, I might reinstall it, nothing on it anyway. But it's weird that the other two work without any issue. :confused:
    Thanks, I will try again later.

    It could indeed be the ROM

    As I mentioned above I have magisk installed but I am not even using magisk hide and all my banking apps work.

    Tested on Siberia Project ROM, LOS16 and Pixel experience :)

    Can you get iCard app to work without magisk hide? (Not got it, but downloaded the app to look at the VCC but couldn't open that either)
