Wedding fund bank account

Options
Hi

Does anyone have any advice on what we should be looking for?

Basically we want to open a joint account that we can both put cash into and both have a debit card for. To be able to save for our wedding and book and buy things when needed.

Apologies if this has been covered before, it's all so confusing!

Thank you
new challenge?

    I doubt if their is any bank that doesn't offer a joint account with ability to pay in and spend on debit cards.
    What exactly do you find confusing?
    The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....

    If your requirements are as simple as each having a debit card, then any joint account with any bank will do.

    Are you looking for other benefits, e.g. interest?

    Most banks offer join accounts. Often the first question you're asked during your application process is if you're applying for a sole or joint account.
