Refer a friend
Spread the Starling word, and earn a free National Trust day pass for two people – redeemable at hundreds of the spaces they look after.
How to refer
Banking worth sharing. Nature worth exploring.
Send your referral link to a pal and – if they open an account – you’ll both earn a free day out at a National Trust space of your choice. We’ll send you separate passes, which both grant entry to two individuals each.
Read the terms and conditionsHow to earn your
free day out

Step 1
In your app, tap your profile picture in the top right and choose ‘Refer a friend’.

Step 2
Read the information and, when you’re ready, tap ‘Share referral link’.

Step 3
Choose your friends, add a personal message, and share away.
Once your friend’s account is approved and opened, we’ll separately send you both free National Trust day passes for two people. Planning more than one referral? Great – you can earn multiple days out (subject to limits set out in our terms).
A natural partnership
The National Trust looks after the spaces you love, from houses, buildings and gardens to coast and countryside. They work hard to protect our native wildlife, iconic landscapes and historic sites for future generations, and to make nature accessible for everyone.
Our partnership
We’re doing our part too
We’re committed to looking after the planet as well, from sustainable packaging to recycled debit cards. Working with the Trust, we’re investing in:
workshops to give primary and secondary school children better access to nature
sustainability projects, such as protecting and restoring peatland, one of our most important terrestrial carbon stores

Our values match yours

A greener way to bank
We’re branchless and largely paperless, with debit cards made of 95% recycled plastic. Plus we’ve planted 100,000 trees. Read more about our approach to sustainable banking.

Making money equal
Changing finance means making money equal for everyone. We campaign against financial stereotypes, talk in plain English and democratise financial education, so everyone’s included.

Founded by a woman
We’re the only bank in British history founded by a woman. And it shows. Forty percent of our leadership team are women, and we’re supporting efforts to get more women into engineering roles.
Not a Starling customer yet?
If you know someone who banks with Starling, ask them to refer you. If not, don’t worry – you can still apply for a Starling account, but we won’t be able to send you a free National Trust day pass.
