«I have currency lying around in my bank account and I constantly regret that it doesn’t make any money. It seems we’ve decided it! Now dollars and euros will bring profit, and they can be withdrawn at any time!», — said Gorohovsky.
He explained that this is a new feature of Jars (monobank savings accounts) that allows users to enable investing and receive 3,7% and 2,8% per annum, depending on the currency. The feature works for Jars from 1,100 euros or dollars.
«Under the hood, we will buy government bonds for the balance of this Bank. And you can withdraw any amount even the next second after replenishment. Of course, you won’t earn anything so quickly, but you won’t lose anything either,» explained Oleg Horokhovsky.
The feature is in test mode, to access it you need to update the monobank application to the latest version and go to the Jar. The first 5,000 users who enable this feature can try out investing. The next ones will be added to the queue.
«Right now we don’t have enough foreign currency government bonds to satisfy the greater demand. But if there are many interested parties, we will buy more and continue. Now it depends on you whether this product will survive or not, but I really like it. We saw something similar at Wise and did it for you,» noted the co-founder of monobank.
Previously, the application introduced an AI feature that should improve the user experience when making payments.
