Activating Bizum in Monzo

You can activate Bizum in the Monzo app.

To get started:

  • Open the Monzo app.

  • Tap Payments.

  • Tap Bizum.

  • Tap Activate Bizum.

  • Check that your phone number is correct.

  • Accept the Bizum Terms and Conditions.

  • If you have more than one Monzo account, choose the account you’d like to receive Bizum payments into. You can change this later.

  • Confirm the activation.

Once you’ve activated Bizum, you can use your linked phone number to:

  • Send money

  • Receive money

  • Request money

  • Pay online
