Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3123)

Great kids account

Great setup providing a controlled experience for young persons to get familiar with managing money. Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

Starling Bank is excellent Overall

I find Starling Bank to be extremely efficient without over the top security (but more than enough) as well as easy to start, access and manage accounts for the whole family. The Kite account in particular works really well and gives my kids a straightforward way to learn about the importance of banking Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

Safe and effective

This bank is a great starter for kids and introduces them to the world of finance in a safe and simple way Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

Starling Kite, grown up banking for kids growing up.

The Starling kite card and app gives me the power to see my kids finances at a glance but the freedom for them to start managing money themselves. A proper grown up bank card, super low monthly fee and great app. Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

Giving the little people control (teaching them too!)

A really smart and easy way to give your small people control of their money, especially the value of, if they spend it, then, that’s it they spend it! The card and app super easy to use and they almost feel grown up when shopping (even if the saving part is boring) Brilliant every kid should have. (Adult boring yet kinda cool bits, setting spending limits, shopping locations, alerts when they have been shopping… what could you want?) Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

Excellent service and product

My son loves having his own card and account but I feel safe that I can monitor his spending Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

Easy Peasy & Good Quality

I have two children linked to my Starling account. The process of opening the account, ordering the card, setting up the app on the child account is all simple. It is intuitive to use and is inexpensive. Highly recommend! Reviewed on: 6th February 2022

Excellent in every respect

I have a persona and banking account and two Kite cards, the kids and I love them. I can see what the spend and set limits, they have the app and can learn about managing their money. Starling is modern, easy and always helpful. It does just what a bank should, makes it so easy you can get on with all the other stuff in your life! Reviewed on: 5th February 2022
