I love it!

The app is incredible. I love that it's real-time, you can easily request money via any platform (mainly whatsapp in my case) or even from people close-by. The spending section is great for putting away money. You can tell from the social accounts that these guys just get it - they're real people with sense of humours. Keep going Starling!

Simple Money Management

Starling's App has revolutionised my money management. I love the simple approach in that I can set multiple goals and manage my money in spaces within the app to save for specific items/events/scenarios. Notifications are very helpful in understanding where each other are spending on our joint account and confirming that transactions have been processed without needing to log in to the app Reviewed on: 7th December 2019
