Starling Bank Kite Childrens Account reviews (3120)

A key resource for kids and parents

I think it's so important for children to be able to have access to funds quickly and easily and also, as parents, for us to have a degree of oversight to help support our children when learning how to be financially responsible. Kite allows children to have independence and control over their money. Coupled with this is the very helpful notifications that parents receive so that we have an awareness of our children's spending habits and how to give them advice. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

The ability to track their spending and see their savings grow has instilled a sense of responsibility and empowerment in my young one. Moreover, Starling Bank's emphasis on safety and security provides me with peace of mind.
