Small business start up review

I was drawn towards Kinectic because it is app-based and offered a fast and efficient setup. I have been using it for around 8 months to date. Things I like: The format of the app is easy to use The overview screen gives cashflow insights at a glance The ability to categorise payments into sub sectors You can search for useful payees such as HMRC etc. Things which could be improved: It doesn't save payee details for my credit card so I have to input the long number every time I want to pay an amount off the balance - it's time consuming The partner benefits could be more varied, there is only 4 The benefits should be related to small startups and maybe they could partner with the federation of small businesses or web development/registration or virtual office support, for example.

Super service

Excellent every time - friendly and efficient Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Simplicity in banking, who knew!

Imagine a world where you can create a bank account for your new business without leaving your sofa! I thought this would be too god to be true but so far it has proved me wrong. The star missing is for the clarity when it comes to a physical address which some customers still want. A minor point but still a point. If this is the future of banking then I'm happy. That coming from a Yorkshire man is praise indeed. Reviewed on: 10th March 2022

Highly recommend
