Best low-fee neobanks

This ranking covers 60 tracked brands - neobanks tagged for this use case - and 60 of them carry a score. The median sits at 80, with the cohort spread between 24 and 97 out of 100.

The top three are Currensea (96.8), Atom Bank (96.6), and Cora (95.0). Currensea sits 17 points clear of the cohort median, so the gap at the top is wide enough to mean something rather than a rounding artefact.

Across the cohort, 29 score 80 or above, 22 land in the 60s and 70s, 7 sit between 40 and 59, and 2 fall below 40. A thin top band usually says the category is hard to get right, not that we are marking harshly.

The scores behind this page rest on 32.6M reviews gathered across Trustpilot, Google Play and the App Store, weighed alongside news and social coverage. The heaviest review load belongs to PayPal, on 10.1M reviews - a reminder that size and satisfaction are separate questions, and that the biggest name in a category is rarely the best-liked one.

Home markets skew towards United Kingdom, base for 12 of the 60 brands here, and the cohort spans 21 countries in total. Where a brand is headquartered shapes which regulator it answers to and, often, where it will let you open an account.

Since the previous reading, 18 brands scored higher and 33 scored lower.

A high score means customers are broadly satisfied - not that a brand is the cheapest, nor that it is available where you live. Fees, supported markets and product limits live on the profile pages, and those are usually what settle the choice once sentiment has narrowed the field.

Order is set by the score alone - we take no payment for placement. Scores refresh every month, so this ranking moves as customer sentiment does.
