Under 16 account with card & no fees

Under 16 account with card & no fees parents have control lWe love using Monzo and so does my child. They have their own fabulous, brightly coloured physical card as well as a virtual card and I’m notified instantly whenever it’s used. I originally set up Monzo for spending abroad on holidays and it’s fantastic the exchange rates are excellent. I also love that you can create different pots to organise your money easily. I even use it for receiving payments from selling platforms. It’s absolutely fabulous love it! Reviewed on: 20th March 2026
