Fantastic account.

Fantastic account. Helpful to have the kid’s balance on my phone & brilliant idea to get “real time” spending notifications. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Great for foreign spending and parental monitoring

I opened the account when my son was going abroad on a skiing holiday and it proved excellent value for foreign transactions with the added benefit that I could track his spending and top up when necessary. After the holiday he has continued using the card in preference to his 'big 4' UK bank account. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

My son is 7 and loves having his own card to look after and swipe in shops. His pocket money is easily transferred in 2 mins from my account and he knows how to check his balance through the app. Its much better than when he had cash in his wallet as we could lose track of what he had spent and in shops his money could fall out, get dropped.
