Perfect kids bank

All 3 of my kids have one and it's great! Gives them the knowledge of how far money doesn't go. They're able to save up and buy something they really want and makes them aware of the hard work that goes into earning each penny. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Smooth & efficient banking!

Starling have proven to be a smooth, efficient machine - in this day and age where every minute is precious and allocatee in our crazy lives this is invaluable. The Kite childrens space is fantastic, giving my son safe, monitored access to his money enabling him to make wise money choices early in life will, in my opinion, set him up with money skills for life. Well done Starling proud to be a customer. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Glad for their approach to being "green" and the app is nice to use and makes my money management with my kids easier Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Excellent card for kids

My son has the kite card since it was launched. Absolutely amazing, it is teaching him how to manage his own money and I can set up limits, such as: how much he can spend , if he is allowed to use in cash machines and I am always notified of his transactions. Latest feature he can check his balance too. Fantastic Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
