It is so simple for my child and I to navigate and keep track of. I love the fact that she can spend and take control of her money with a card without having to open a full account. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Simple to Set Up and Use.

Simple to Set Up and Use. No frills or gimmicks. None required. Simple to get money in or out and full transparency of transactions. And I understand it will transition to a full account on 16 years old. That's it. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
