Pockit is designed to be a simple and accessible account, particularly for those who might find it challenging to open a traditional bank account or who do not have access to credit products. 

To open a Pockit account, at a minimum you must:

1. Age Requirement: You must be at least 18 years old.

2. Residency: You must be a resident of the United Kingdom.

Pockit does not perform credit checks, making it an ideal option for individuals with poor credit histories, newcomers to the UK, or anyone needing a secondary account for budgeting or other purposes.

Opening a Pockit account is really simple:

1. Online Application: Visit the Pockit website or download the Pockit app. Fill in your personal details and upload your documents.

2. Verification: Pockit will review your documents to verify your identity and address.

3. Account Setup: Once verified, your account will be set up, and you’ll receive your prepaid Pockit card by post.
