Children's Accounts

Children's accounts are designed to help a child start saving for the first time. They teach children about savings and help them develop the habit of saving. They can also sometimes be a way to build up a nest egg for a child when they turn 18.

Compare our savings accounts to the market

We believe in being open and honest. We want you to make an informed choice. That’s why we've built this tool to help you compare our accounts with other providers.

Get started: Select an account or accounts below to compare them with our account.

This tool uses the latest data from moneyfacts.co.uk, an independent comparison service. Moneyfacts aim to include at least 95% of providers of UK-based personal savings accounts.

What’s missing? Our tool omits any accounts with special conditions for opening except for Regular Saver (for example, you have to already hold an account with the provider).

We’ve omitted our Additional Allowance ISA because it’s only available if you've lost your spouse or civil partner and they had ISA savings with us.

Remember: there’s more to a savings account than just the interest rate. You can compare access terms, how to pay in and other criteria – then make your own mind up.
