Amazing account for my 6 year old to learn financial independence and earn pocket money. Love that you can add notes and choosing their own card colour is a nice touch. My daughter loves it and it motivates her to do jobs around the house to earn pocket money and she then enjoys using the contactless in shops to treat herself. Well done Monzo!!
