Add an account holder

What you need to know

Adding someone to your account means your 'sole account' will become a 'joint account’ and both account holders will have equal ownership of any funds or overdrafts. It's important to consider this before adding someone, as you won't be able to remove them in future without their consent.

You can only add someone to your account by submitting a request via our mobile app. Please note, you'll need their consent. This means we’ll ask you for their email address so we can contact them to confirm they are happy to be added to the account.

What they'll need to provide

  • Photo ID, such as a driving licence, passport or EU ID card.
  • A selfie to compare to their photo ID.
  • Proof of address, such as a driving license, utility bill, bank statement or tax document.
