Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3117)

Kite account brilliant!

5
This is a great account for my daughter. She is able to learn about money, saving, spending, budgeting, earning and money as gifts and rewards without this coming at a cost. This is a great way to enable youngsters to become financially literate in way that everyone can access. The addition of the app for the children to use allows them to develop their sense agency and independence whilst having the safety of this being linked to the adult. Using this account has sparked lots of curiosity and conversations surrounding finances for my daughter and this will provide her with a solid foundation for learning and managing money going forward.
