thinkmoney is a UK-based banking services provider. It is regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority under the Payment Services Regulations. thinkmoney’s Personal Account is a managed bank account and has been granted a four star mark by the Fairbanking Foundation.
thinkmoney charges all customers a fixed monthly fee - £17.50 for a single account and £24.50 for a joint account with no overdraft or transaction charges. It offers a budgeting service that sees customers money split into two accounts, one for spending and one for bills – an approach sometimes known as jam jar banking.
In 2012 customers of thinkmoney (then known as thinkbanking) were left without access to their money, due to a computer failure at Royal Bank of Scotland which it relies on for access to the payments infrastructure. A similar failure at RBS left some thinkmoney customers without access to their incomes again in June 2015.
In 2014, thinkmoney introduced the First Data’s PIN Now SMS solution.
