HyperJar Childrens Account reviews (2712)

Poor customer service

The card is not accepted by some businesses and atm. Reviewed on: 15th March 2023

Reply from HyperJar Hi Rebecca - we're so sorry not to have met your expectations for our child's card. As far as businesses not accepting the card, this is out of our control unfortunately. Some restaurant and leisure chains, for example, have a business registration 'code' that mean all children's payment cards are rejected - this can be because they serve alcohol on the premises. We know it's frustrating for parents and children when this happens and we will look at giving better information on our website about when and why kids' cards sometimes don't work. The same is true of cash withdrawals at ATMs: we don't offer this service for the child or adult cards. If this came as a surprise to you, that's down to us and we'll try to improve the way we communicate this in the sign-up process. Again, sorry we couldn't convert you into a happy customer - we'd love another chance, Thanks for taking the time to get in touch, HyperJar. Response date: 16th March 2023

Brilliant

This is a great and easy to use. It gives my children the independence to do things for themselves but I can also keep an eye on what they are spending and where. Reviewed on: 14th March 2023

Game changer for pocket money

Love these cards and the best thing is that they are free unlike some companies which charge you monthly. I have two children's cards for my teenage sons. They love the independence and freedom they get with their Hyperjar cards. It's easy for me to put on their weekly pocket and keep track of their spending in the app. I have also had to order new cards as my boys have lost them and each time it was super quick and easy to replace them.

Best account my children have had

I have recommended to all of my friends and family, best way to help my children learn how to spend their money and how to do it sensibly. Simply amazing. Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

Fantastic kids account

Opened a hyperjar account to be able to easily pay my 10 year old pocket money. She loves the control and ability to have her own jars for sending and saving. And it's quick and easy for me to move money for her. Reviewed on: 13th March 2023

Great way for our kids to keep track of their pocket money

We have a card for both our two eldest kids, and they love being able to see how much money they have and add to their account, as well as using their card to buy things. So much easier than having cash! Reviewed on: 12th March 2023

Teaches children to budget

This account/card is a brilliant idea for children to learn to manage their money..some shops only take card, so by teaching them how to budget and have money in their account it will have a huge impact on learning to manage their finances. As a parent i csn see where they are spending their money. My 12 year old added a seperate jar and said mummy i want to budget for my bday shopping. Very impressed Reviewed on: 12th March 2023
