I started using it as a bank for travelling as it is good to use to buy and get cash abroad but I have increasingly found it better than that. It is still not my main bank but it is looking to go that way Reviewed on: 12th April 2024

Independence without monthly fees

The kite card gives my son his independence without any extra costs. I can monitor where he spends his money and top up when his balance is low. I would highly recommend Kite to any care givers who don’t want to handle cash. Reviewed on: 12th April 2024
