Yeah, we said a million…

The word “millionaire” has a nice ring to it. Whether it’s cash, or points – having six zeroes makes for some seriously exciting times, and this week we’re honoured to bring you an exclusive opportunity for one of our UK readers to become an Avios millionaire, thanks to Monese. You’ve got questions, most likely about Monese, how to win, and any hoops you’ll need to jump through, so let’s get to it ASAP, so you can get your entry sorted and start thinking of how many first class flights you’ll be treating your friends to…

What Is Monese?

Monese is a digital banking service offering free UK current accounts, ways to take money out abroad with no fees and also to send or receive money instantly, which makes it a great way to do banking.

Like other clever fintech firms, there’s fee free allowances for taking money out abroad, and adding money to your account, or getting paid by friends couldn’t be any easier and can all be done directly from the app. There’s no credit checks nor proof of address needed. It’s FCA compliant, meaning your money is not at risk and is never, ever used for lending or investing. Basically, it’s as safe as any bank on earth. More on Monese here.

How To Enter To Win 1,000,000 Avios

For your chance to win, all you need to do is follow these simple steps:

● Download the Monese app

● Signup using the code GSTPAMIL

● Add money to your Monese account

● Sit back and dream of how you would spend 1,000,000 Avios – and we’ll let you know if you’ve won!

To simplify: go to Monese.com, download the app, sign up, enter code GSTPAMIL at sign up, add some dough to your account and then cross your fingers, toes or anything else you cross when you need some luck. You MUST do these things by September 30th to be entered, and you’re still eligible if you already have a Monese account. A winner will be drawn then! Here’s a link to the boring T&C’s, including the fact that you need to be a UK resident…

Having trouble entering? Here’s a bit from Monese “It seems some people have tried to use the code in the app, rather than for onboarding. As soon as you on-board, there’s an initial screen that asks for the code (the first screen), the in-app promo code is different and it won’t work.”

1,000,000 Exclusively For GSTP

What’s really cool here is that Monese is making (6) Avios Millionaires, and they’ve given us our own exclusive million, so one of our readers will absolutely be a million Avios winner. Compared to the other general pools for the contest I’d *think* this one will be smaller, and thus give you a much better chance. While Monese premium is a great shout, there’s no risk or crazy hoops to jump through. Plus, it’s an app we 100% back anyway and have advocated before.

A million Avios win would allow you to fly first class on any Oneworld airline, including British Airways, Cathay, JAL, Qatar and more, or business class almost twice as many times. Of course, you could always fly premium or economy, but we love to spend our Avios for premium cabins that would otherwise be reserved for millionaires, which you may soon be ; )…

  1. Will they message with notice of a successful signup to the promo?

    I put it in the first page of the App sign up and have added some money and signed in to my BA account….

  2. Code is not working for me when I add it to promotions section (Already registered with Monese so not a new user)

  3. Does anyone know whether Monese use the interbank rate for foreign currency purchases and whether they apply the fee at weekends in the way Revolut, Curve do? It could mean I’ll get use out of the card!

  5. Winning this would certainly cancel out the problems caused by AMEX changing their re-sign up times about 2 weeks after I got my first card!

  6. It does state above “What’s really cool here is that Monese is making (6) Avios Millionaires, and they’ve given us our own exclusive million, so one of our readers will absolutely be a million Avios winner.” So presume HfP is another of the 6?

    1. Yes, exactly. We have 1mil, hfp have a mil, one other blogger a mil and then 3 pools for Monese. So one of ours absolutely will win, because only those using the gstp promo code are eligible.

  7. No.
    It seems HFP have one of the 6 guaranteed and GSTP have a different one of the 6 six guaranteed.

  8. All went pretty painlessly on my Samsung phone
    Signed up, did verification, linked AVIOS account, tho entered code (invite code) at first had to add it later under promotions and now showing
    HOWEVER did a transfer from my 1stDirect account and whilst am sure all details are right – still some 15min later my balabcestill zero (ok its closed time for BACS, but thought these apps were 24/7)
    fingers crossed

  9. Pretty pain-free for me too, signed up, verified, added promo code, topped up £10 from my C***e card (GSTP!)

  11. Any news on the winner of this? Doesn’t seem to be any information on any of the 6 winners on the Monese website either. Wonder if it’s been drawn or not.

    1. Hey Joe, hate to say it’s already been drawn and winners have been informed. For data privacy reasons they can’t share winners unless they specifically ask to be shared.
