Great that they get their own space, with a debit card for withdrawing cash and making payments online, but all visible by me, and with good controls. They get their own app, so they can check the balance at any time. The only real drawback is the lack of functionally like direct debits, for example for paying a mobile phone bill. Also I have to manually pro-rate interest payments. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Kite for Kids

A great way to introduce your children to card only payments. Secure and simple to use. It allows me to set a limit and monitor their spending, whilst allowing them a bit of freedom and autonomy. Great product, it streamlines perfectly with my starling main and spaces accounts! Reviewed on: 13th April 2024

Love Starling.

Love Starling. It helps me budget and keep my account safe. Customer service, not that I've needed much, is amazing and not based in another country. The app is so user friendly and great to look at. Very efficient and I like the live notifications and bill reminders. My daughter has a kite card too which has been brilliant in giving her financial freedom when she's out, while I can still track her spending. Reviewed on: 13th April 2024
