Opening additional accounts within the Starling app is simple, just tap the main menu (top right of the home screen), swipe down to bring up the accounts menu, then tap Open a new account, then select the type of account you would like and follow the instructions required to open the account. 

Please note, the types of additional accounts you can open will depend on the accounts you already hold at Starling Bank:

Personal current accounts

If you only hold a business account then you can apply for a personal account. If you already have a personal account you can open one additional account at the cost of £2 per month. 

Joint current accounts

To apply for a joint account, you'll both need to have Starling personal accounts and be in the same room when you begin the application. If you already have a joint account, you can apply for one more additional joint account at the cost of £2 per month - the additional account will be added to the same pair of people that hold the main joint account and will be accessible and usable by both people.

Sole trader accounts

You can apply for one sole trader account per person. 

Business accounts

You can apply for as many business accounts as you like as long as they are for separate businesses. At the moment, you cannot apply for an additional business account for the same business. 

Euro and dollar accounts

If you hold a personal GBP current account, you can hold one personal euro account. If you hold a sole trader account or business account, you can apply for a business euro account at the cost of £2 per month. If you hold a business account, you can also apply for a business USD account as the cost of £5 per month (our business USD account is not currently available to sole traders).
