NatWest Rooster card reviews (15273)

Great app for teaching children value of money.

4
We’ve been using Rooster for over a year now. 2 of our children have a card and our youngest uses just the app. We love how our children can understand the value of money and earn money, and that we can keep track of all their spends in one place! We can all access the apps using various devices. The fact both my husband and I can control and monitor their accounts is a real bonus. Our eldest (aged 11) user her card regularly, and with lockdown knowing she has the option of paying contactless is very reassuring. Our middle child (aged 9) hasn’t used his card yet (it was a Christmas gift). He’s waiting until shops reopen (and saving!) to start using it. Highly recommend as a way to introduce children to budgeting, saving and a cash free (card-only) way to use money. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Educational

This has helped my 12 year old understand about money and spending and saving and allowed him to save his pocket money for something he wants and pay for it himself in shops. It has also allowed him to feel grown up by doing so and I know when he is meeting friends he can buy a drink etc but n a local shop with it. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

Flexible, fun, safe

5
Downloaded Rooster on a whim a while ago, and soon got a card, allowing my son to start gaining a little financial independence. The app is really well thought out and is flexible enough to accommodate different ways of working with money (rewards for chores, saving pots, pocket money); the card has a great bunch of safety features (instant notification to parent on spend, some limits on purchases, changing CVV for online purchases). And best of all, the team are highly responsive, with personal replies to bug reports and even to survey responses. Have already recommended to others and would again. Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021

It's amazing! It's simple and easy to use. Both of my children have rooster cards and they have never had a problem with them.

When you first set up a card it can be very stressful and confusing but when I used rooster money it was so simple it barley took me 5 minutes. Not only that, it is an amazing price! Reviewed on: 2nd February 2021
