Starling easy peasy

I started using starling bank several years ago,I find it easy and safe to use. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Amazing!!!

Starling Kite account gives us amazing clarity on what our child spends money on, when and where. It doesn’t allow him to use the card anywhere which isn’t verified by Starling but also gives him a sense of accountability and independence. App is really easy to use and it’s reaching our child how to look after money Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great bank

Fantastic bank excellent to monitor spending and child can also follow spending Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Simpl

The kite card allows you to be in control even when you're not here. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great kids account

Easy to set up and use. Just wish I could pay 1 fee and have multiple accounts as I have 3 kids. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Brilliant account for kids

Myself and my two kids have enjoyed using their Starling account. Taught both kids to budget and save and responsibility with their own money while I as a parent can also monitor their spending. Absolutely will recommend to any parent who wishes their child to teach them about money and how to be a responsible spender and earner :) Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Kite for teens!!

Very easy to use, can top up, monitor spends, set limits - it does everything! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great children's account

Very happy to give my son an account and card with the mobile app for him and a space for me to control funding Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great for Kids and parents

Great app, gives control of money to kids but you control how and where they can spend. Alerts keep you informed of activity Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Both of my teenagers use the kite card its great

It's very quick when they loose their cards which is often, you can freeze it on the app. And a replacement arrives super quick at no cost. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
