What is Premium?
Premium is the optional extra layer on top of the free marketplace, for those who want to be a little quicker off the mark. Everything essential on Monti — searching, posting, favourites, saved searches and email alerts — is free and stays free; Premium is where the convenience extras will live.
What will Premium offer?
- SMS alerts on saved searches — the headline perk. When a new listing matches the dream car or the right flat, a text goes straight to your phone, on top of the free email alert.
We are building the Premium perks now and switch each one on only when it works properly. The Monti Premium page always shows what is live right now — and until a perk appears there, email alerts have you covered, free for everyone.
What does it cost?
Through all of 2027, everything on Monti is free — Premium included. Current and planned prices are on /prices, published long before they apply.
Do I need Premium?
No. You can use Monti fully for free — search, save favourites, save searches and get email alerts — without Premium. SMS is simply for those who want to be extra quick.
Not to be confused with a Monti+ listing: that is your listing at the top of the results and on the front page for 7 days, activated with one click from your own listing.
