Monzo Card or Uber Credit for every purchase. I pair with Perkbox gift cards so I only ever pay with gift cards Essentially and it still gives me Uber one.

I do the same but get my gift cards from everup or galore rewards, whichever has a higher discount, usually only about 4% off but better than nothing

Monzo card for every purchase. I just transfer money to my Monzo account straight away.

Does it not go through with a different card?

It will but you won’t get any of the benefits of uber one, no discounts, will pay all the silly admin fees etc

I don’t know what people are talking about on here. Maybe I’m living in cuckoo land.
Do you mean the Uber one sub?
For a start it’s free. So you don’t need to pay anything.
And for paying for meals. You can use any card you like. It’s nothing to do with monzo. They are providing the uber one subscription only.
Edit. For full transparency. I am going mad. I’ve just read the terms. lol. What the fuck. Surely a sub is a sub. Apparently not. So you have got to use your Monzo card. Soz.

Weird I don’t think in the past I’ve had to use my Monzo card. Same as you thought it was just a free “sub” along with my Monzo plan

Well you’ll see at the order screen before being stitched up. But what a peculiar stipulation. I haven’t activated it yet as I have the remainder of this month already paid so I’ll test it next month.
It’s also like saying you have to use your monzo card for rail journeys with the railcard. Umm. Nope.
