Monzo Just Posted £1.7B in Revenue. Here Is the Pitch Deck That Started It All

From a prepaid card for 500 beta users to one in five UK adults. The deck, the numbers, and the three product bets that 300-year-old banks could not copy

Monzo just published full year results.

£1.7B in revenue. Up 39%. £87M in pre-tax profit. 15.2 million customers, adding 3 million in a single year, its biggest annual increase ever.

The company preparing for a £6 to £10B IPO started with a hot coral prepaid card and 500 beta testers in 2015.

The pitch deck that kicked it off raised £19.3M in 2017 at a £65M valuation.

What that deck was betting on, and how right it turned out to be, is what makes this worth studying.
