Oh for filing’s sake! Side hustle starting to feel like a full-time gig? With 7th August fast-approaching, swap the paper receipts and mental load for our built-in Making Tax Digital for Income Tax tool. It’s free, HMRC-recognised and built into your business bank account.

We’ve made a few changes to Starling Assistant, to make it more useful and able to answer more questions. Customers can now head into the Assistant and ask it a question to get money tasks sorted quicker, or follow one of the ready made prompts. In case you missed it, we’ve been putting AI into the hands of our customers through Starling Assistant, the UK’s first agentic AI financial assistant, which was built to help people be good with money. It’s been built on Google Cloud’s Gemini model and in line with our commitment to privacy, customers have to opt in to use it and data remains within the Starling Google Cloud environment.

The "peace of mind" vs. "DIY" debate: Do you need an accountant for MTD? HMRC takes the final year-end declaration as gospel, so leaning on a professional for that final check makes sense for many. However, MTD’s quarterly updates are reasonably simple. We’ve designed our Starling tool specifically so you can handle these updates yourself. It’s your business, and it’s your choice. Being good with money means being good with tax.

Pride Month was a time of celebration at Starling, especially for our internal LGBTQIA+ group, Bend the Bank. It’s been a great time for the group, culminating in a fantastic turnout at Pride Cymru where over 30 colleagues marched, some even dressed up as our brand new debit cards - on a hot and sunny June Saturday, no less! They were also pleased to have been highly commended as an outstanding LGBTQIA+ network of the year at the Paramount Rainbow Honours, with a group from Bend the Bank in attendance to collect the award. These prestigious awards celebrate individuals and organisations who dedicate themselves year-round to driving change and championing LGBTQIA+ equality. Celebrating like this is about more than just having fun, it’s a reminder of how important it is to be able to be ourselves at work. Through Bend the Bank and our wider Always Open Forum, we’re building a culture where everyone feels they belong, and when our people can bring their true selves, our whole bank is better for it. Didn’t get to celebrate Pride with us? We’ll be at Manchester Pride in August too!
