What's New in Investec Youth

Under the hood enhancements.

User reviews

Overly basic

Super basic, don’t know why it isn’t an option for me to just use the normal Investec app under 18 instead of the youth app.

The youth app just doesn’t have the needed features.

Simple app

I love Investec and the Youth App is very simple and easy to use and not complicated at all. As a 20 year old though it is a bit too simple and “childish”for me. The colours don’t really match Investec’s brand. I would love a good looking sleek banking app similar to the normal Investec app but still holds those youth qualities.

Needs Improvements for Young Adults

I’ve created two accounts - one for a 19-year-old and another for a 22-year-old. Unfortunately, the Youth App doesn’t support creating or viewing Virtual Card details, which is a key feature. While this functionality is available via Investec Online on a browser, it’s not ideal for mobile use and lacks the convenience expected from an app experience.

The app also feels too simple and junior for young adults. I’ve reached out to our bankers to explore access to the standard Investec Private Banking App (which I really like) - not because we need all additional features, but because the user interface and navigation are far more suited to a young adult. The current Youth App seems better designed for users under 18.

If access to the Private Banking App isn’t possible, I’d strongly recommend developing a “Young Adults” app.. a light version of the full app - targeted at the 18–25 age group - to bridge the gap between the Junior Youth App (<18) and the full Private Banking experience (>25).

I’d really appreciate any feedback or assistance from the development team.

Thank you.

An idea

The app is too basic and is too minimal for a youth that is above 18 or even 16. Can you please introduce a more advanced youth app that is less toddler like.

No notifications?

My app started giving me problems with push notifications and after deleting and redownloading it, it does not give any notifications at all. How am I supposed to authenticate transactions or now if transactions went through without any notifications?
