Easy to use great money learning tool for kids

We set this up for our grandson. He loves being independent with his money and knowing he has the ability to spend on his card whilst out with friends. It also means he doesn't have to carry cash, which is always a worry. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great for teaching children about money

I have 8 and 9 year old boys who use their kite account for pocket money and any gifts. They love using the card in shops, and also checking out how well they are doing in saving. It gives me peace of mind knowing I'm in full control whilst teaching them on how to handle money! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Easy to use and give kids a level of responsibility

I love the Starling Kite app. It allows me to transfer money to my boys in seconds. It also gives them a level of responsibility in taking charge of their pocket money. Starling makes banking for kids easy! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
