Best service

Simple and easy service for kid's all parents should look on that Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Amazing bank

So not only do my partner and I have personal accounts we also have a joint and 2 kite accounts for our older kids. It’s amazing having it all in one place easy to get in touch if need be etc the only thing I’d like is for them to have an account for younger children to save instead of just a savings space.

Fantastic service. Fantastic value

Starling Kite accounts are fantastic. They offer the children access to a real card and the ability to manage their money in a safe way. The app, whilst not as sophisticated as some of the other children’s accounts works flawlessly every time. By using starling kite, my children have been able to spend their money, as well as make mistakes by themselves, all safely controlled as the parents are always in control Fantastic job Starling!

When friends tell me the difficulties they have doing the simplest things with their banks it all reminds me of a time before Starling. Everything just seems so easy, and quick, now. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
