About Starling

Starling Bank is a UK-licensed prudential institution that operates without a physical branch network, delivering its services through a proprietary full-stack cloud infrastructure. Its operational model is characterized by a lean corporate structure and a 100% API-based architecture, enabling real-time transaction processing and direct integration with payment schemes like Faster Payments and SEPA. The bank’s strategic focus has shifted from hyper-growth to institutional maturity, evidenced by its diversified revenue streams which include consumer lending, SME banking, and a specialized Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) division called Engine. As of May 2025, Starling maintains a robust balance sheet with £11.1 billion in customer deposits and has transitioned into a consistently profitable entity, distinguishing itself from the wider digital challenger bank sector through sustained fiscal discipline and a high ratio of active primary accounts.
