Setup steps

1. Select the person to add

Go to Business Details on the main menu and select the name of the person you want to add.
If you can’t see the name of the person you want to invite, make sure you have added them as a PSC at Companies House. They’ll need to be visible on the Companies House website before you can invite them to join. We can only accept PSCs who are individuals (not other entities) based in the UK.
Add their personal details.
FieldNotes
NameRequired
Email addressRequired
Mobile phone numberRequired
Make sure you have their permission before sharing with Starling Bank.
Once Starling Bank has these details, they will send an invite by email to them. The PSC will need to download the app and send a copy of their ID as well as a selfie video.
If they’re already a Starling customer, they can open the invite and if eligible, Starling will add this business account to their existing app. If they haven’t received the invite, double check it’s not in the spam/junk folder.
Once Starling Bank has done their checks, they’ll add them to the account. They won’t see the account or do anything unless they are a director.

Important notes

At the moment only directors listed at Companies House can access an account. Starling is looking to support other types of access in the future.
If no account access is assigned, the user will see no data.
Use one user per account if separate connections are required.
