Fantastic banking app, so easy to use, a no nonsense bank. Love it. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Easy to use and good to track spending in realtime

I like being able to see how much my child is spending and where in real time with this linked account. It is easy to transfer money between accounts, and my child finds it good too. It’s then possible, if necessary, to have conversations with your child about their spending which is part of their education. I also like being able to block online spending, but unblock it if my child comes to ask to buy a specific thing online. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
