Excellent for kids accounts.i have automated their pocket money from a pot it gets sorted from my salary into a pot monthly then distributed weekly to the kids without me doing anything. They both have internet bearing savings pots, a good app and a card. Reviewed on: 6th March 2026

Absolutely love Monzo kids.

Absolutely love Monzo kids. They have the freedom to manage their own money and responsibility using the app but I have the peace of mind that all transactions are linked to the parent account to keep an eye on their spending. It’s so easy to send them money via my app and to share the link with family who want to send them money as there is no sort code and account number for kids accounts. They can also set up their own savings pots and manage these as they like. I recommend these to everyone Reviewed on: 6th March 2026
