Trends: What are custom categories, how to edit and add them
With Monzo Plus, Premium, Extra, Perks and Max, you can group and label purchases your way. There are two ways to create Custom Categories.
From Trends
Tap View your spending insights on your home screen.
Select the Spending tab above the graph.
Scroll down and select Create your own category.
Follow the on-screen instructions.
By selecting a payment
On the Home screen, select a transaction in the Activity feed.
Tap on the category, if one has already been selected.
Tap Create +.
Give your category a name and icon.
When you're finished, tap Save.
Back on the transaction, you'll be able to mark it as a repeating payment. If you do so, we'll allocate the category you created to it. That way, you won't have to do it in the future.
If you want to edit or remove a custom category
Tap on the Profile tab in the bottom right of the app.
Scroll through to the end of the list of benefits near the top of the screen and tap Custom categories.
Select the category you'd like to edit and, well, edit or remove it!
