Starling Bank

Starling Bank is a fully licensed UK app bank with FSCS-protected deposits, no fees on overseas spending or ATM withdrawals, interest on balances and highly regarded free business accounts. It is one of the strongest all-round UK options, especially for freelancers and small businesses, though it is UK-only and GBP-focused.

Klady

  • Full UK bank, FSCS-protected deposits
  • No fees on overseas spending or ATM withdrawals
  • Excellent free business accounts

Zápory

  • UK-only
  • GBP-focused for personal accounts
  • Fewer lifestyle perks than some rivals

N26

N26 is a Berlin-based mobile bank with a full German banking licence and €100,000 deposit protection, offering a polished app and fee-free card spending at the mid-market rate. It is EUR-centric and limited to around two dozen European markets, so it is not a true multi-currency account. Best for clean everyday banking within the Eurozone.

  • Full German banking licence, €100k protection
  • No FX markup on card spending
  • Clean, well-designed mobile app

Zápory

  • EUR-only account; not truly multi-currency
