Rooster gives both my children a great opportunity to be able to visually see their money and carve out different saving/usage pots. It also enables them to feel grown up by having a card they can actually use in shops. It is also a great benefit that the account/app is free as an existing customer of Natwest myself. The only down side is that there is no interest earned for the children to a) understand interest and b) be rewarded for having their money with Rooster Reviewed on: 17th March 2026

Great money management concept for Children

I love the Rooster money concept and app. Easy to use in managing funds for the children. Also, teaching them to save Reviewed on: 16th March 2026

Good for teaching kids money management

The main reason for choosing Rooster was the free subscription fee for existing Natwest customers, but I thought that a £1.99 monthly subscription fee was good for non Natwest customers when comparing with similar providers. My child likes that you can choose your card design, and we paid extra for a more 'funky' card to fit their personality. I do however find the process of depositing money into the parenting account then into the child's account a bit unnecessary and would prefer it to just come straight out of my Natwest account and straight into the child account. I do not like that the account is not FCS protected, but we avoid keeping large sums of money in the Rooseter account to counteract this. Rooster is however helping my child to learn about money and they enjoy tapping their card in the shops. I also like the little pocket money emails that Natwest send as I find these really interesting. Reviewed on: 16th March 2026
