Review of the HyperJar, Childrens Account:

Great for children to manage their money

5
This is such a good tool for children of all ages. It empowers children to learn how to budget and manage their money from an early age. My grandchildren love the fact that i can load money onto their card for birthdays or presents. It enables them to choose what they want to buy and which is affordable for them. Teaches them the value of money! Reviewed on: 14th January 2023

Game-changer

5
It's been a game-changer for us in organising our family finances. Our daughter is delighted to have the independence but has also taken her money responsibilities more seriously. Reviewed on: 29th March 2025

Excellent

Having this card has given my children the freedom to experience risk free banking and has helped them to understand saving, spending and using discounts at a young age. It has also helped them try to reach goals for more expensive items they want. Reviewed on: 29th March 2025

The whole experience has been great for my kids with them taking ownership of their finances at 8 & 10. Reviewed on: 29th March 2025

It's a great way to have pocket money

4
It's a great way for a child to have pocket money available both in UK and abroad in a cashless world. Not providing interest is a shame for kids though as they don't benefit from saving up - this would offer really valuable learning for them before they can have a bank account of their own.

Great Account

5
We got the HyperJar Adult Account as we wanted to open up a Children’s Account. The Adult Account let's you transfer money in and add it to jars so you have different pots of money abd it allows you to navigate the ChildrenAccount. I dont use the Adult Account to its potential as it's mainly used to load my son's card. Our 12yr old son LOVES his hyper jar card. It helps foster independence and money management. He loves being able to transfer money into pots as he's saving for a new console. We transfer money into his account, via the Adult Account, once he's completed his weekly jobs and he carries it everywhere with him. The contactless card is great for getting a bus when public transport is now cashless and popping to the shop. The app is so handy for keeping track of what is being spent, too. Customer Service is so helpful. I had to contact them once and they resolved the issue immediately. All in all, Hyper Jar Adult and the Children’s Account has been great for us, as a family. Our youngest son now wants one! Reviewed on: 29th March 2025

Love this account and have two cards for children

Love this account and have two cards for my eldest children. Easy to top up thier wallets. Also love the savings in to different Jars. If your careful you can avoid charges just by being careful. Reviewed on: 29th March 2025
