RoosterMoney is absolutely brilliant! It has taught our children about the value of money (a few pence isn't going to buy the toy they wanted), saving up for things they'd like, that their allowance is earned (make up the bed in the morning, some small chores to earn a little extra), and for the eldest it also taught how to use a card and keeping their money safe when doing so. As parents it is also helpful that the app allows you to 'step in' when help is needed, such as a forgotten pin code and encouraging tasks, and of course keeping an eye on where the money is spent. Love it! Reviewed on: 24th January 2021

The only app of it's kind

Parent Friendly & Motivates Children

A superb system: works easily and well for adults and children. It has helped me to actually remember to give them pocket money! and also helped them to save as their 'money' pots (Save/Spend/Goal/ Give are clearly distinguishable and consequently offer great incentive to see their pot grow! The access to the 'spend' pot allows them to take real consideration and responsibility for their own money and purchases. The use of a 'card' that looks not at all dissimilar to an adult bank card made my duo feel very grown-up and take the business of spending and saving very seriously. For my 7 and 9 year old, I have also found setting the chores a great tool. They love taking a photo as 'evidence' that jobs have been completed. The fact I get reminders as do they, for chores to be completed and signed off is so helpful. Personalising the 'chores' and images etc is simple and very effective, an excellent app. The ability to offer comments as a reply back is fun and positive. I highly recommend the app can be adjusted I feel for how you and your family want to use it most effectively. Reviewed on: 24th January 2021

Great app works well for multiple children

Rooster has been great for our 3 boys and helping us to teach them about money. It is simple to set up and use. It has shown them how to save for things and great that when in a shop they can buy something and it comes off their Rooster account Reviewed on: 24th January 2021

Great app and functionality!

5
I am glad I stumbled across this great app as it it easy to use for both myself and my son. The bonus is that you can add bespoke chores to the app, which my son loves doing as he obviously get a little cash for them. The goal setting function is very important as it teaches kids the importance of prioritisation and patience. Reviewed on: 24th January 2021
