Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3121)

Excellent and easy to use!

I am so impressed with the Kite bank accounts that I have for both of my children, they are easy to use, easy for me to access, they can check their own balances and they have started to learn about making their own financial choices. The accounts are excellent and I would absolutely recommend them to friends/family. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
