Starling is awesome

It's so refreshing to have everything in one app; the kids cards, my personal account, a joint with my wife and her sole trader she uses for her business. It just works! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great provision for children

The kite card for children is both educational, practical and gives young people autonomy and independence, great for parents, grand parents and guardians and has many safety features too. We'll done starling. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

All good

Everything goes quickly and efficiently. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great for independence abroad

My kids have both been on school trips and transfers are instantaneous. We know we are getting a decent rate without charges and prior or the excursions don’t have to bother queuing at the post office for Swiss Francs or Euros. Win-win Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

The best card for teens from parents point of view

Love the card and options offered by Starling. That includes a transparency of transactions (KYC = KYKid;)) and all tech flexibility necessary for a teenage kid to survive in a city (in our case in Cambridge). An wonderful product! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Brilliant

The smart way of giving money to your child.

I find starling kite easy and straightforward to manage my child's expenses as I can check on my mobile phone what my son has been spending. I can also control how much I want to give to my child.
