Digital bank Starling has announced the launch of online banking for its personal and joint bank account customers. The new online portal will allow Starling Bank’s customers to manage their money from their desktop or laptop as well as their smartphones. Previously, Starling had been an app-based digital bank in recognition of the ubiquity of the iPhone and other smartphones.
The web version of the app is said to join a series of new releases that Starling Bank has delivered in response to their customers’ needs during the COVID-19 pandemic, including the Business Toolkit, Connected Card, and cheque imaging.
To access their account online, customers simply visit Starling’s Online Banking secure login page, enter both their account and mobile numbers and then tap the notification sent to their mobile.
Starling Bank Founder and CEO Anne Boden commented:
“Many customers told us they wanted to do their banking online as well as on their smartphones. By making accounts accessible on laptops and desktops, we’re giving them even more flexibility to bank the way that best suits them. As we’re all spending more time at home than usual, it’s important that our customers can manage their money from anywhere they wish at any time.”
