Easy to use

This app is easy to use which is great when you have children because a complex to use app is the last thing you need. I love the simplicity of it and the way I can sync it across both my kids phones and it motivates them to keep up with housework and gives me a realistic way to keep tabs on the money they have for birthdays and Christmas. Well worth the money if you pay for premium but also a great free app. Reviewed on: 28th March 2022

Great tool to give kids financial know how

We joined Rooster back in 2020 when it became clear many places were switching to contractors payments. Our then 13year old needed to be able to do activities with friends with a degree of independence. The Rooster card has allowed us as parents and him as a child to clearly see where money has come from and how it has been spent, we've been able to add birthday money and rewards for chores to the balance and he has been able to make decisions about budgeting. Also any time we have needed help it advice the staff at Rooster have been quickly on hand to solve any issues. The app is really easy to use for parents and children. Overall a great service to help kids learn about managing their finances. Reviewed on: 28th March 2022

Supportive and educational

With cash fast becoming a thing of the past, kids need to learn about the digital side of currency (pocket money). Rooster gives us control over spending but also provides a set of useful tools to visualise our daughters pocket money. Having great guides and content on how to talk about money to your children has also been a fantastic help! Reviewed on: 28th March 2022

Fabulous

Great product

It’s a great app for my whole family. Keeps everyone focused on our goals and stops any arguments in shops! Reviewed on: 27th March 2022

A tool for growing financially savvy children

Super helpful app for pocket money management but more importantly a useful tool to raise financially astute wee ones. Reviewed on: 26th March 2022

A very smart app for kids money management

A friend of mine recommended a similar app, a very well-known one, which she used for her daughter. After doing some research I realised that Rooster is so much better. More affordable per year really smart to use; I have never stopped using it since. I wish I knew it when I had my older daughter. It’s easy to navigate, it is simple for the child and the parent and it gives a lot of extra features. Also very good value for money regarding the subscription per year. I’m really happy with it!

Great for my kids!

This app and account is great for motivating my kids and giving them d as one independence. Reviewed on: 26th March 2022

Our familys pocket money manager

There is no other app quite like Rooster money - I love that we all have complete transparency over pocket money with this app. Our boys (12 and 11) setup their own saving goals and money pots. They completely own their savings and spending and they can easily track it on their own. They have both setup their own “pots” for saving, charity and splurging. Rooster money makes it so easy and transparent for all of us. Reviewed on: 26th March 2022
