A nifty app where I can see my First Direct bank account, Amex card balance and even my PensionBee pension balance all in one place . Super easy to use. Reviewed on: 11th January 2018

Quick, easy, overall great experience

Both the website and app are very easy to operate. The financial accounts to add to your dashboard are vast and the insights on offer are fantastic. A very well thought out application and business that can only get better and better. Reviewed on: 11th January 2018

The Leaders in Open Banking

5
Bud have consistently shown themselves to be the leading thinkers (and more importantly DOERS!) when it comes to Open Banking. They have demonstrated their ability to deliver results that are shaking up the way we look at personal finance. Their beta platform, while admittedly quite basic, really shows they have thought hard about user journeys and what customers really want and that they hope to make personal finance accessible to all. I wish them the best of luck in their partnership with First Direct and hope they'll link up with my bank soon! Reviewed on: 10th January 2018
