Meet the next generation: Monzo for Under 16s 🎉

Nope not missing anything, that’s the current form of the u16 account.

Over time, this may change - likely two parents can add and monitor first.

Starling Bank seem to have rolled out a payment link service to their Kite accounts to allow others to make payments to the child accounts.

Hi,
Thanks for the clarification, I’ve advised my son to keep his Barclays account for now and we’ll keep an eye out for any updates.

Does anyone know the exact date that it will be released in November?

I might have missed it, but I’m not aware that any timeframes have been given?

when will this be released?

Do you need to receive the card first to do this?

From memory, no. The card is not needed to setup the Child account.

There is no ETA. It is still being tested

How long were you guys on the waiting list before you could continue?

I think I was on the waiting list for maybe a month.

Is this not addressed still? I got a notification in-app to say I had a “neon ticket” which can help people skip the waitlist for U16 accounts so I assumed they’d added this functionality now and we can link to joint accounts instead

You must be new here.

What’s a neon ticket? :confused:

Just had my 6 year anniversary - 6 years of delusion :wink:


It’s a fancy invite to Monzo which also includes a skip of the U16 waitlist

that really cool

Calm down fella, are you the thread police? :rotating_light:

Frustrating not being able to have my wife manage our son’s card the same way I can, especially when we use a joint account for all our finances.

You’ve misunderstood. But the faux outrage was cool.
