Lovely bright cards for the kids, easy app to navigate and add to their saving pots with little notes for them. They love feeling grown up using their cards. I love using mine abroad too for the 0% international fees. LOVE Monzo! Reviewed on: 24th March 2026

Good oversight of account

My 14 year old has an account - I get notified of all transactions and the card is blocked to pay for any drinking establishments or gambling which is good. I can easily transfer money to him and he can also have the app on his phone to view his balance and transactions. Very easy to use Reviewed on: 22nd March 2026

Brilliant.
