A money revolution.

Love Starling. Love their approach. Love their transparency. Love, like really love, the UI and experience of the app. Love getting interest on in-credit balances. Wish they offered a different design of debit card for joint accounts; I’d move our joint money to them if they did. Wish they offered a Credit Card with a perk like 0.5% cash back. Wish they offered a Cheque Book. Reviewed on: 26th January 2020
