Perfect and safe intro to banking for young people

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

Got the message to sign up for access once released. Didn't wait long before I got the message ready to set up under 16s account. Easy and just what we need. All in my account so its easy to manage. And my daughter has her own access with her card. Very good for what we needed. Reviewed on: 11th February 2026
