Making it easy to look after your money

HSBC MyMoney makes it easy to take good care of your money. If you’re aged from 7 to 17, you can save up for something special with a MySavings account. And if you’re 11 or older, you can open your very own MyAccount current account.

Open your account

Applying for your account is simple.

At a glance

  • Choose the account that suits you best
    Pick from our MySavings savings account, our MyAccount current account, or both (which accounts are available depends on how old you are).
  • Start building good money habits
    Having your own bank account is a great way to learn about managing money.
  • Manage your account the easy way
    From the age of 11 you’ll be able to use online, mobile and phone banking to check your balance and send money between your savings account and current account. 2
  • Only spend what you have
    You can only use the money that’s in your account. So you don’t need to worry about spending more than you have available. 1

MySavings

A straightforward savings account you can open with as little as £10. You’ll earn interest on your savings every month. And if you’re aged 7-10, you’ll also receive a free moneybox when you open your account.

Available for customers aged 7 to 17 years old.

MyAccount

Our current account designed especially for young people. It comes with a contactless Visa debit card, which means you can shop online and in stores. 4 And you can also withdraw up to £100 in cash from any ATM, as long as you have money in your account.

Available for customers aged 11 to 17 years old.

  • (if your parent or guardian doesn't bank with us) you and your parents can provide proof of identity and address

Apply in branch

Services in our branches are currently limited because of the coronavirus outbreak. Unfortunately we're unable to offer new products or set up appointments at the moment.

We’re also receiving far more calls than usual, so our wait times are longer. Please only call us if it’s urgent, so we can help those most in need.

You can apply for a Children’s Bank Account in any of our branches. Your parent or guardian must be with you when you apply, and you must bring any ID documents we mentioned under ‘Who can apply’.

To save time, you can print and complete an application form before your visit. Or we can provide you with one in branch.
