Review of the Tembo Money, Lifetime ISA:

10/10 service, super user friendly app with great features to help me save for a house! Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

No problems with Tembo, everything positive...

5
No problems with Tembo, everything has been positive and smooth and very stress free. I did a transfer from another provider and it was so faultless and the customer service team were good at keeping me updated on where my money was. Good competitive rates and better than my last provider for LISA. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

I love Tembo!

5
My Dad did research into multiple online saving accounts to store my trust fund I got when I was 18, so that I could collect interest and add money to it to save for a house when I'm older. It's one of the easiest apps I've used when it comes to transferring money into, and the way it's set out makes it easy to save. After I put £4,000 in there and let it sit, I earned another £1,000. So far, I've earned an extra £58 for just using tembo - that's without me adding anything into it. I would say it's very much worth it, as you make the most out of your money. It's especially good for young people, and students, who don't yet have jobs and want somewhere to store big sums like that. I've not personally interacted with the customer service team, so I can't make a review on that. However, I adore the features and how the app is laid out. It always makes me happy when I open it!

Tembo made buying a home seem possible

5
In my 20s I never thought buying a house would be possible. The I was introduced to Tembo and their lifetime ISA and I then felt like I could maybe own my own home. I love everything about Tembo. Their community, easy-to-use app, first-time buyer webinars, their social media videos… I always learn something new. I’d recommend Tembo to anyone! Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

The app is simple and easy to use - great UX design

The app is simple and easy to use - great UX design. The email newsletters are also very useful to learn about how real legislation or interest rate updates are impacting my Tembo savings. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026

Wonderful customer service and excellent rates

5
I had a problem with my account initially because of my email address and the customer support was really good and helpful! They reset my account and I’ve had no issues anymore. Love the interest rates and updates via email - definitely my favourite place to put my money. Reviewed on: 3rd February 2026
