Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3117)

The Best

The Best Bank Worldwide Easy To Use and More secure Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Transition of financial responsibility

It is more important than ever for teenagers to understand the value of money. Using Kite has given that freedom to my child yet allows me as a parent to guide them with their financial transactions. Yes! £4 is too much for a hot chocolate!!! :) Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

So natural

My child just got started with the Kite card and I can already sense a change in maturity and understanding. Worth it! Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Brilliant

It's brilliant to have an account my daughter can use and we can both track what she's spending. Really reasonably priced too. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Amazing and Simple for Children!

What a great way to teach children the importance of saving and spending money. My children were so excited to have the reasonability of their own app and easily understood the security and information that came with the card. I will recommend to any of my family and friends who are looking into accounts for children. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Starling kite soars high

Cannot recommend this app enough. It is helping my daughter to manage her money learn about value of money. She is able purchase things while out without having to ask me for money. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Easy to use

Everything you could want. Already teaching my child to be responsible and the app is so easy for her to use. I did a lot of research and this is the most cost efficient and safe bank I could choose. It was very easy to set up and very easy to manage Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

It just works

Having fought with a high street bank trying to sort out a bank account that actually gave my child proper access their money and failing, the kite account was a breath of fresh air. It just works and gives my teenage son access to his money when he wants and me a thorough oversight of it. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Sons account

The level of protection Starling gives to children is fantastic and the fact I control everything helps my son learn the value of not over spending. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Brilliant service

Great convenient service for my young children. Very easy to use. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022
