Review of the HyperJar, Childrens account:

Great for kids and parents

5
Hyper Jar is easy to use for both myself and my kids. It's a good way to keep track of the kids' spending and saving. Reviewed on: 27th May 2024

Kids’ understanding and independence

5
My kids had cash strewn around their rooms. Rather than treating it with value, it was more of a collectors’ item that they would squabble over and never have with them when they really needed it. HyperJar has totally changed their appreciation of money and we’re now able to have better conversations around saving, spending, and budgeting. We also don’t have cash being lost in their rooms, stolen by siblings, or argued over like we did - makes for easier parenting - and funds are always to hand if they choose to treat themselves. They seem far more independent now to make better choices around money. Thank you Hyper Jar. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

Easy to use and great to teach kids about money

5
Easy to use, freedom for my daughter whilst learning how to manage her money and fee free. Easy to set up and transfer money in and out. Reviewed on: 13th March 2024

give kids access to a payment card with low risk

4
Easy to use and setup, quick to transfer money onto it, and it works just like a normal payment card. No fees if you use reasonable sized transfers, and a lost card is easy to lock and only £5 to replace. No interest, but we use this more as a payment card that a savings account. Reviewed on: 12th March 2024

Easy to use app and staff very helpful

Great service but fees for transfers a little high

5
Great service for keeping an eye on your children’s spending and teaching them to save using their own specific jars. It is a shame that we get charged for transfers less then £10 though. Reviewed on: 12th March 2024

It’s good for kids who likes to be more independent.

4
It’s good for kids who likes to be more independent. My kids love the fact that they can go to shops and buy with their pockets money. I have recommended lots of friends. Reviewed on: 12th March 2024

Easy to use, and free!

Easy to use, and free! Great first card for my son. Reviewed on: 12th March 2024

Fantastic

5
Extremely easy setup and the fact that you can get your children into financial responsibility at no recurring cost is fantastic. The app is very user friendly and the presence of pots further enhances the experience. Also the ability for both parents to have a shared pot with the child increases flexibility Reviewed on: 12th March 2024

Really easy to use my son loves it
