How does it work?

Accepted Answer

Little Birdie uses the latest ‘open banking’ technology and clever data analysis to analyse your spending; helping you see what you've signed up to and help you switch to a better deal if possible or cancel if you choose to stop using a product or service. We will only do this with your express permission. Read more about how Open Banking works here
