The Freelancer's Haven

When I left my day job and decided to embark on one of life's most notorious but scariest adventures of all...I was, so gratefully, informed of the HSBC Kinetic Business Banking app by a wonderful customer service rep on the phone whom I was talking to about opening a new account as a sole trader. I felt like the captain of the Titanic who was told about the fateful iceberg well before the ship set sail from Southampton. HSBC had me fully prepared for my journey. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023

Quick and easy

5
Set up is easy and quick, it took around 48 hrs to open my account. Custom service is brilliant. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023

Simplicity

5
I really like how easy and swiftly the business banking is executed. I really like the simplicity of HSBC Kinetic banking and iOS app. Keep up the good work and keep offering new/better stuff in the future. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023

Comprehensive app for start-ups

5
I have found that kinetic does everything that I need from a banking app as I start my small business. It's integration with my accounting software (xero) takes a massive admin burden away from me. When I gave feedback about how crucial this was, it was acted on and implemented. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023

Easy Access On-The-Go Banking

5
Great APP with easy instant banking functionality Reviewed on: 7th March 2023

Small Business Account user

When I set up as a small business I set up on HSBC Kinetic. Opening the account was quick and efficient and i was able to use the account straight away. The only issue I have currently is that it does not connect to the accounting software Sage, which is something my accountant set me up on. However, I am going to change the accounting software rather than the bank account. Reviewed on: 7th March 2023
