Kite account

Great easy to use and simple for payments Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Great for both parents and kids!

5
Both my son and I are incredibly impressed by Kite. I like the way it keeps both of us in control. He is able to both monitor and manage his account via his own app which makes him feel incredibly grown up. Whilst I get notifications when he does spend. I like the way there are toggles within the app for cash machines and online purchases. It gives us both the security of knowing that he will never be stranded without funds.
