Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3123)

Great for Chipdren

This little addition to my account gives my daughter the independence, freedom and responsibility of an account without any worries. She can learn the basics of banking Nd money management before getting her own account and loves being able to use her own card in shops Reviewed on: 21st February 2022

Easy Peasy Squeezy

So easy to set up your child's account. Same app so one login to view all. Notification when they spend. Instant review of spending limits, easy transfers to their account. Moved my son from another to Kite, never looked back. Top banking app. Reviewed on: 20th February 2022

Perfect for a 9yr old little fella

My son is delighted to have a contactless bank card! I love it as I can cap his daily spend and I’m notified every time it’s used. The only problem is that now it’s ‘his’ money, he doesn’t want to spend it! Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Easy to use

Easy to use and linked to my account Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Perfect kids account space

I'd tried a different product aimed at kids, but had soooo many problems topping it up. Not the case with Starling, simple to transfer money at any time, no limits, and an app for my kid to use too to easily keep track of their own use. Plus I get notified of all transactions my kid makes, so I can keep an eye on what they're purchasing. I recommend this to all my friends. Reviewed on: 17th February 2022

Very convenient children's account

Integrated tightly with our joint account and let us control all kinds of spending and other settings Reviewed on: 16th February 2022
