Great for kids accounts.

Great for kids accounts. Easy to manage, they have their own cards and other people can put money into their accounts. Also allows kids to have their own app showing just their account. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Easy of use, customer support and my daughter being able to spend her own money easily with myself getting notifications of spending is amazing! Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Highly recommend Kite Accounts

I have used Starling for years and I think having the kite accounts are great. They give kids a bit of independence with their own card and money but we can monitor spending and encourage saving. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024
