Not sure what options you have?
There are two main types of trusted access: formal and informal.
Formal access
These agreements exist outside of Monzo and rely on legally recognised documents.
Common types of formal third-party access:
- Power of Attorney (POA)
- Deputyship (Deputy Court Order)
- Department of Work and Pensions (DWP) Appointeeship
If you're in Scotland or Northern Ireland, you may be used to different names for these types of agreements.
Informal access
These arrangements exist between Monzo and a Monzo customer. It allows a trusted person, like a friend or family member, to help manage an account with us. Even with informal access, there are different levels of access and control.
