Where Does Monzo Store Account Data?

Monzo keeps money data on its servers with the phone holding session cache in a private sandbox. Statements export in app.

Last updated

Monzo balances are server-side. The app sandbox carries session, cached feed, and notification state. Clearing it logs you out without touching holdings.

Magic link login gates every new phone, which matters more than files. Statements and summaries export from inside the app. Guard the email on the account, since every login flows through it.

Frequently asked questions

How do I move Monzo to a new phone?

How do I export Monzo statements?

Open the account feed and export monthly statements as PDF or CSV from inside the app. The sandbox copy is a cache, not the record. Pots and budgets export with the same flow.
