HyperJar Childrens account reviews (2711)

Good incentive for kids saving

I would prefer if the kids could add there own money and not have to give me cash to put in my account, then to have to transfer to hyperjar account to then add it to their jars. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Great kids account

Great app for kids pocket money. I can pay into it weekly which is great and as an added bonus it's free. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Brilliant for pocket money accounts

I love Hyperjar, it's so easy to use and perfect for my daughters pocket money accounts, giving them independence and an inttoduction to managing their money whilst giving me peace of mind and parental management over their accounts. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Perfect for kids

Great for kids’ independence and for pocket money Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Excellent for first child account

Much better than the competitor. No charges on money spent and very easy to transfer pocket money to their jars. The money goes from your jar to theirs and you control this so no chores or bad behaviour, then no money. This has shown my 10 year old the value of money and has taught that if he wants something, he has to save up for it. I would 100% recommend and have already had all my neighbours create their Childrens HyperJar accounts up and they have been over the moon. The customer service is extremely quick, and makes the whole experience easy, and enjoyable. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Great money management for teen

Delighted to have discovered HyperJar. My 14 year old daughter was wanting a little more independence to manage her pocket money, plus her birthday and Christmas money etc. The concept of having different 'jars' is quite unique and easy to manage. I did lots of research before opting for a HyperJar account, and many of the alternative accounts charged fees, which put me off. Great customer service, wonderful app which is very easy to use. Would highly recommend. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Just perfect

I have no negatives, so I'll just list the positives... - no monthly fee - easy to use app - can transfer money from my hyperjar account to the kids easily - kids have their own card, giving them a great introduction to being responsible for their own finances - contactless card or use a pin. Easy and straightforward for even young children - Gives children autonomy, independence and confidence to purchace thei own things - chance for children to earn more money by completing chores/ improving behaviour etc - alerts to my account showing what has been bought and how much has been spent - lovely quotes related to money can be selected to be printed on each childs' card - enables opportunities fir children to learn how to budget, save and spend sensibly - cancel or pause cards easily from the app if you suspect a card has been lost or stolen Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

So easy

Found this amazing tried opening accounts with bank for my kids so much faffing appointments etc. This was so straight forward and easy to manage Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

Great teaching tool

Although I oversee my son’s jars (a current and a savings jar), he is in control of his spending. He is learning a valuable lesson which gives him freedom to spend/save as he wishes and understand the consequences of spending/saving. His card is on his phone wallet for ease. I can’t recommend this enough. Reviewed on: 13th January 2023

I tell anyone who listens how great it is

My kids having their own cards that I can top u for free and control from it phone is amazing. The kids are much more careful spending money when they know it’s theirs. The app is easy to use, top ups are not charged. I have told everyone who will listen they need hyper jar Reviewed on: 13th January 2023
