Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3117)

A new way of banking

Love the ease of use of the app, love being able to give my son some independence while still having an overview, and above all love the ethics of this bank and its founder. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Great for parents, simple and easy to use for children

I’ve used a previous children’s card and this is by far the better product. Funds I transfer to my child’s account are available immediately and I am notified of every transaction, both the amount and location. It’s therefore quick and easy for my child and reassuring for me. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Kid friendly

Great especially when separated family’s are concerned you know the moneys going to your child Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Visibility

Starling allows me to have full visibility of all areas of my finances and the kites children account teaches my child how to deal with money from a young age. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Fantastic experience

I joined Starling about in 2019 after reviewing many fintech organisations. I found that it was a right choice, they are progressive and their baking app is amazing. Mobile and cloud first approach. I would still say their app needs many improvements but in general one hell of a bank. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Why is every bank not doing this?

Forward thinking again from Starling. Especially during the pandemic where handling cash was a safe option there kite account for our 14 year old was the perfect solution. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Easy to use Great service and product.. And excellent way to track my Daughters spending

Starling bank is the best bank on the market... Security alerts.. Easy to use Great customer service bar none I would and have done recommend starling bank to anyone Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Great simple banking.

Very easy to use service and if you need to speak to anyone it is an easy process either by phone or via secure messages. Easy to set up spaces for savings and easy to transfer money to sons child account and he is learning about online transactions and being responsible with his money. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Starling kite

This account is brilliant to teach you child how to save money so easy to use. I am account holder with starling and it's great. Reviewed on: 4th February 2022

Simple, easy and great access

I have been a member of starling for a few years and fully rate them - the app is brilliant, and they’ve always been so quite to reply to any queries I’ve had, so I added my son as soon as thought he was old enough. It’s been great! He can log in and see his own balance and yet I have control of the account. He’s got the independence he needs to really become ‘good’ with money! Great work starling!
