Pick a switch date
Once your account is open, you can start the switching process in-app and we’ll send a request to your old bank to confirm the switch.
We’ll do the rest
We’ll close your old account and move your balance, salary, Direct Debits and standing orders to your Starling account.
It's as easy as that! Your old bank will even make sure that any payments made to your old account are redirected to your Starling account, and let the sender know your new bank details.
