Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3120)

The best banking app

The app has changed my life. Managing my family finances is no longer a chore! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Knowing with ease!

Simply the best children’s banking option. With it being linked to my own account. Using the phone App I have instant visibility and control of my child’s bank account and spending. I can add money to my child’s account (and take it away, if necessary) I can limit spending and see where pocket money is being spent. All with a few clicks on my phone. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Great service

A great kid's card with parental control. We switch from another kids card and haven't looked back! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Best Childrens card!

I find this so easy to use with my child. I would recommend to anyone. My son loved having a welcome greeting card with his new bank card and loves using it. Really useful to keep a eye on spending and they love the bright colours. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Encourages good money use

My kids love having and using Kite. They see their pocket money go in at the same time every week, they love the grown up independence of their own card, and they can always know how much money they have easily. They’ve even saved loads more because they glimpse what their sibling has Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Perfect account

Amazing account with spaces that help me organise my life - including the Kite account. It helps teach my child the vale of money and I'm notified with every transaction. Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

My children are loving it!

Our boys are digital experts and they love being able to manage their pocket and birthday money online! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023

Super!

My tween finds the card convenient to use and more safer to carry around. As a parent I like the fact that I can limit the spend and with the notifications, I can tell exactly where the money is being spent - and most times, the exact time! Reviewed on: 16th March 2023
