Excellent Experience

Opening account was pretty straight forward with easy to follow instructions. The app is to navigate and always gives tips on getting more from it. The dispatch of cards was fast. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

liberating, educational and easy to use

This has been liberating and easy. My children have a greater sense of financial independence and increasing understanding of financial responsibility and I can have overview of this too. It has enabled us to talk about money and how to budget. It was easy to set up and easy to monitor. A superb product! Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Excellent kids banking

The app is easy to use and gives the children a real sense of responsibility for their money, which is a really important life skill for them to learn Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Easy and safe accounts for kids

It has been super easy to set up, use and manage accounts for my children. I love how flexible it is to add money and toggle on or off spending limits and online purchasing. I can send them lunch money or approve a purchase and adjust as I go. They also love their accounts and the freedom and independence it gives them. As so much is online now it’s a good way to introduce money management in a safe way. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
