I received the email to go on the waiting list for the under 16s account for my child and didnt have to wait long before being able to set it up. Its been the easiest thing to manage. I can see it on my panel.of accounts and I can organise my daughters account from mine. Pocket money is split into pots automatically once set up. My daughter can view and learn to manage her own account too with her own access. Cards a brightly coloured so can be easily spotted. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2026

Great first account for under-16s

The account was very easy to set up and is simple to use. I especially like the parental controls, which give me peace of mind while still giving my child a sense of financial independence. It’s a great balance between supervision and freedom. Reviewed on: 23rd February 2026
