The instant transaction alerts let you put a freeze on the account in a matter of seconds, so that's nice. I actually use my monzo account so putting low usage limits isn't practical.
Edit: although I guess they'd just do it in the middle of the night so doesn't really help.
You would get your debit card within a week max. You can transfer limited amount from your original bank account to Monzo account and even on top of that you can set some restrictions on how much amount can be withdrawn and there are some special features like POTS which are very useful.
I am not saying this is the best, but even if someone steals your monzo card details, you can reqeust for a new one and your original bank card details are still safe.
Note: All this works, only if you don't use a credit card.
