What it does

We replace the clunky, cash-based allowance system with a digital service Easily set up tasks for your kids to complete Once they finish the task, they automatically receive the money! Money is limited to what the parent sets, and the child has no access to the parent’s bank account Kids can set goals for items they want to buy, encouraging them to save up
