Review of the Monzo, Under 16s account:

The best bank

Opening account with Monzo was so easy and first to offer me a credit card and savings made easy I would say the best bank. Got a card for my daughter as well so easy to manage and had no hassle at all getting approved a loan within few hours. Easy manage spending as you can see categories.

It’s so easy to use and it’s free .. it annoys me that all the other banks charge and that’s money that can go to a child. My boy lived the brightly coloured card. Reviewed on: 15th February 2026

Perfect and safe intro to banking for young people

5
Brilliant way to introduce my daughter to banking and savings. She’s loving to see the interest adding up, and I like the control and flexibility it gives me - I don’t want her to have the physical card yet, but she can still have a proper bank account. It’s perfect! Reviewed on: 13th February 2026
